How long until I should harvest my northern light?
Knertstarted grow question 6y ago
She's at day 50 now and her pistils are already getting quite orangey/brown (see diary), which seems rather early to me, also compared to other diaries of her strain. How long (more or less ofcourse) would you reckon she still has before she should be harvested?

She's still a long way away yet. I would advise removing some of the lower fan leaves especially in the center and the yellowing ones. Keep feeding her and maybe 4 weeks later?

The best way to tell is by the trichomes on the buds themselves. your looking at about a 70% Milky to 30% clear when your flush with water should begin. At 20-30% amber trichomes on the buds is when it's the best time to harvest, remember on the bud not the sugar leaf! A good way to see these is with a Jewelers Loop, or a wifi microscope hooked to a cellphone or laptop! Hope this helps! Happy growing!

Should I harvest in 2-3 weeks ?Hey, do you think my plants might be ready in two weeks ? They're autos in 7th week of their life. I know that 9 weeks is ok for most, but these should take approx. 11 weeks. Do you think one more week of feeding, then flush would be appropriate ? Trichomes are mostly milky white

I recently bought some bud from a dispo. The strain is from Cookies and is called Willie’s Kush Cake and is 35% THC. I was lucky enough to find a seed in one of the nugs. If it turns out to be a male, can I cross it with a female auto flower and make a new auto flowering strain?Buds. Other

Autoflower Permanent Stretch, Growing too close to light and it's overcrowding a flowering tent.Day 70 and I have a plant that has preflower stretched for almost 4 weeks now. No bud sites or pistils really and is massive. 4 auto seeds, same strain. All crazy different, all very different needs. Pull it, keep it, defoliate hand sized leaves, 12/12?

Are we Twins? would we make a good couple? who are we lol?Essentially is the same nutrient correct? From my understanding, a PK booster is usually thrown in the middle of the flower cycle for about 2 - 3 wks. I've also noticed it rarely cut out. Can/would you mix the product lines? what weight differences have you seen with use?

Flowering/Preflowering/Showing sex in Vegative Stage?Hey,
Today I noticed all my outdoor plants have pistils after being 3-5weeks outside. Is this normal and will they continue veg due to increasing days/temps? Also, could this be reversed with additional light? Currently in the 7th week of Spring with 14h light and 13h sunrise.

Almost ripe?I looked at the trichomes through a microscope - on the main cola, there are a lot of amber and milky trichomes. The hairs are actively drying, but there's probably 2-3 weeks until harvest.
Maybe in a week I should start giving ripen? Assess the readiness of my plant.
Thanks!6y ago

Tricomes status for this Do-Si-Dos automatic from RQSI would like to ask experts about the tricomes maturation status of this Do-Si-Dos automatic from RQS.
Please forgive the quality of the photos, I tried many times yesterday but it is quite difficult to keep the plant steady when you use the microscope.
