I started flushing PP#2 last Sunday Evening but didn't started flushing PP#1 until yesterday(saturday). I pull the trigger when I think they are about 80% cloudy, HiGrade app said they were at 90% cloudy when I asked about each at different times. Maybe I'm finally getting a better eye for what the trichomes differences look like, between clear and cloudy, with the jewels 40x lupes... Anyway, I did cut a couple small tops from PP#1 to start drying as I'm pretty sure I scene a couple amber on 'em. Anyway, smell really fruity like it is supposed to and I look forward to tasting her. I'll post pics soon. I'm gonna harvest each section when they look right to me and not all at the same time, figured I can go for gold only having two plants.
What is a smart amount flowering branches to keep? You can see at least 10+ on pp#1. As many as I can? Remove all the smaller center ones? I see a variety of ways out there. Looking for quality more than high production value. Thanks in advance for any advice.
a lot of personal preference there and what your intentions are.
Open space around each cola is a good idea.. how much is optimal? no research on that yet that you can rely on. Make sure they aren't rubbing up against each other, as this isn't nascar, and you should be good.
e.g. in my Nova OG an dBBM grows, my shoots are too close together. MY future #1 plant they are probably about right, but i should have filled the middle better -- i didn, but i snapped off a stem when shaping plant early after 12-12 switch. that'd be a great example of well-spaced colas if i had one in the middle, as intended. (1 for 4 on that grow, lol, Big fail on my part!)
as far as what those colas look compared to each other -- that's more about genetics and shap of plant. a large bush won't produce a big fat huge cola if resources are spread around. over-lollipop like i did with BBM and NOG and you can get those but reduce yield too. (instagram has teh GB harvest pics -- nice large drumstick buds, lol, and like BBM and NOG was too tight in canopy and still turned out well)
Do your best.. keep some airflow, avoid leaves overlapping and getting each other wet or interfering with tranpiration etc etc... keep total coverage of canopy when removing things or at least will grow back to fill whatever gap is created... All is good at that point.
There are bud sites and smaller branches with bud sites below the 'harvest line'. Would it just set the plants back a couple days if prune theses out from stress like with heavy leaf pruning? Or... Should I just leave them be and continue to keep canopy relatively open? Thank you
Yes, Defoliate and lollypop those bottom leaves. Anything at the bottom that gets no light. You want to the light to penetrate to lower branches and have a nice air flow. You'll notice a huge deference in yield and bud size. i have a video on week 6 of my blue frost, have a look at it, underneath my canopy is clear. Hope it helps, happy growing.
