Beginner grower question
Hi! I am a beginner grower. I converted a refrigerator for micro-growing. How long until my first plant is finished? It grew semi-open air. The box was ready a few weeks ago and I put it in. My lamp is viperspectra p600. I welcome any useful advice. Thanks. Auto jack herrer

Flowering. 19 days left supposedly : are the trichomes already milky?
Many pistils are getting dark and it seems some trichomes are already milky but I'm not sure. I had many setbacks during the grow but I didn't think a plant would be that early. How much time do I have left ? I didnt start senescence yet (end of week)

When is it time to cure
At what point in the drying process is it cure time? I hang dried for a week in 63 temp and 54RH with good air flow. I can snap the stem, but still It’s stringy. Now they are in brown paper bags hanging in climate controlled tent.

I can not take out of the tent to the darkness more than 4 at once and wanna hear your suggestions before I go with yellow sugar leaves or some amberish :D
I read something about harvesting immediately (not to crap the flower) when sugar leaves start to turn yellow and I have some! On the other hand, I saw some trusted videos that has some yellow sugar leaves. I want to ask you if you have any experience with this issue?

Small bud rot - Harvest or finish off? 9 weeks into flower
I've had to cut about a 1 inch section off the top of one of my colas due to what appears to be rot. I've checked the rest of the plant and can't see anywhere else that has been effected. Should I harvest now to be on the safe side or let it finish up?

end of flowering
what do you think is the best way to understand when it is ready? I don't want to rush things too much, but theoretically the green gelato automatic should end in 70 days
