Week 13 Day 85 (10/9) I did a partial harvest tonight! Took off the buds that were ready, hoping that it will help allow the lower stuff to catch up and open up for more light. I got them all trimmed up and put into paper bags. Covered the bottom of 2 bags! In the morning I'll feed her, since she'll probably be another week or two to finish up. Day 86 (10/10) I fed/watered her today. Will probably be the only time I do and just do water from here on out when she needs it. Day 87 (10/11) Today is my buddy's birthday and I was hoping to have some buds ready for him to try but no luck. Oh well, they will be ready when I see him next. Day 88 (10/12) Just letting her do her thing. When I get a chance, I'll take the microscope to what she's got. I'm wanting to really let what's left amber up a good amount. Day 89 (10/13) She's coming along fine. She seems to have even more trichomes now. Day 90 (10/14) I'll try and take the microscope to her tonight. The first harvest was all cloudy with some amber. I'm going to try and hold out for a lot more amber with these buds, really try to bring out that indica effect.

Not the best pics, but do these trichomes look cloudy? First time trying the microscope, still working on technique. I don't even know if these are on the bud or leaves lol. I'm just trying to get a sense of what clear vs cloudy looks like.

Hey there DogterB, looking at trichomes is a whole thing. Try looking through a few different places on the plant. You want to hit up like the side colas top and bottom, the main cola top and bottom, take a look at the flowers and the sugar leafs, there will be some places either than others to measure. Sometimes it's necessary to have a " stabilizer " to take the measurement aswell... i just use my own fingers for that. You're doing good man, thanks for the pictures. Remember though :you're doing this for you, so as long as you can take the measurements for yourself , that's good enough like you dont need to get a headache from taking pictures ya get me? anyway, you're basically 70/80% cloudy if not more already. Hope this helps ! 🚀

Since I am seeing some cloudy trichomes, what kind of timeframe am I looking at moving forward? I'm thinking I want to harvest when I'm between 20-50% amber trichomes, so when I start to see some amber, about how long do I have before I need to chop? Days? Week?

Hey Growmie, Once you start seeing amber trichomes it's going to take about 2 weeks for it to reach the 20 - 50% amber trichomes your looking for, then chop her down. Hopefully I answered your question and remember Happy Growing and Free your mind one puff at a time.

I'm close to harvest but my lower buds are still showing white pistils. Do I wait until they are ready as well? Any tips on trying to get them to mature? I was thinking of some defoliation but am hesitant as a first time and that it's an auto...

Hello You've got a very nice full canopy and the plants definitely far enough along that i would defoliate just to send more light to the bottom. Maybe a 20% removal. If the upper buds are ready way before the bottoms you can also do a partial harvest and then let the rest mature over the next week. Happy harvesting. ✌️

@CRiSPrGrow, I learned it from an old school grower, useful info needs to be passed on to others as it was to me. Go ahead and steal it! 😆

Having similar yellowing issues with my plant, but was not feeding with every watering. I thought it was nutrient lockout too but it hasn't gotten better. You're a week or 2 ahead of me so learning from your grow. THX>

@Latestagecapitalist420, no problem! An old Eskimo told me once, "Learn from others mistakes, life's too short to make them all yourself". Hope my mess-ups help lol. Good luck!

@DogterB, To be honest if you're running autos and want to keep a perpetual harvest happening...it's time to fire up a couple more.👍 I knew someone on here who only ran autos and did a perpetual where every 3 weeks there was a harvest and germination.

"A few days ago I moved the light down quite a bit, and when I got home last night a lot of the upper leaves had gotten pretty yellow. I figured it was light bleaching so I moved the light up some to about 13" above the tallest cola point." It's not light bleaching what is it? It's the increased rates of Transportation (from the higher amounts of photosynthesis) the foliage gets sacrificed in favor of transporting nutrients to the buds.. Yellowing in later flower phases can be a good sign :) it can tend to mean the plant is processing the nutrients it is intaking.

@DeadwebsiteBoringcommunity, thanks for the info! I assumed it was light bleaching due to it being only on the parts closest to the light and it happened so quickly after lowering the light. Always learning lol
