Low THC = less amber thricomes?
BigBeautifulWeed
started grow question 6y ago
A low thc % can cause less amber thricomes? She ripened completely days ago but no amber yet, quick one is low on thc, could be that?

Time to harvest... amber tricomes is the thc breaking down. If you're worried about low thc, amber tricomes will only make it worse. All cloudy is the right stuff. Too much amber gives a lethargic effect. Even on a sativa

I got these seeds from grower's choice. They were supposed to be auto flowers. It's been 8 weeks no sign of fllowers so I'm switching the light schedule to force them into flower. Has anybody else run into this problem with auto flowers?

Purple buds? Any real way to encourage darker purples? Purple Trainwreck strain
How do you really enhance purple buds/anthocyanin development during the last week of flower? Plant has the genetics and has one bud showing purple, others have a few calyx’s here and there that are tinted pinkish/purple... my plan is to chop her in about 7 days. Help?

Harvest time?
is it time to harvest? this genetics bloomed at 2 weeks and so I think it should be ready to harvest sooner than usual. Do you think they still have a lot to get fatter and grow or they will only mature from now on.

Harvest from top to bottom ok?
Can you harvest from top to bottom? If some of the buds lower need a day or 2 more is it ok to cut off what is done and leave the rest to finish or do you have to do it all at once? Does it affect it negative or positive either way? Input and advice greatly appreciated.

Buds below canopy
What should be done about those buds that haven't grown high enough? They are there right under or above the net. Leave them to grow or remove them completely?

When to start flushing
I’ve read some people found that if they flowered too long this strain started producing bananas. This plant is like week 6-7 of flowering and it’s still producing a lot of hairs. Do these buds look ok still? I’m waiting for my keepers loupe to get delivered.

My plant is not getting me stoned
I kept testing my plants the last 7 days and i am quite disappointed. I am also checking the trichomes on the buds regularly and there are like 20% amber and 70%cloudy and like 10 clear trichomes. I thought of flushing the plants for another week and then cut it down...

How long until I should harvest my northern light?
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?
