When to harvest CBD-rich flowers
When to harvest CBD-rich flowers

started grow question 5 years ago
Sorry, I don't think I was clear enough in my last question. Do CBD-rich flowers look different to THC-rich flowers at their ideal harvest time?

No they don't. For a perfect effect you should harvest them when all trichomes are amber.

Will a node that is from a bottom branch still produce a fat cola if it’s up in the canopy the same height as the top buds? Or does it need to be a top bud?

Dears, please tell when to begin rippening? Want to start after 4-5 days, for one week.

I know it takes time for buds to stack and fatten up. My question is, will molasses be of any benefit to me or is that for the organic grows? As I've read the sugar feeds the microbes and not the plant itself. Also how's she looking? if it was your plant what would you change?

Hello everyone! As this is my first grow idk how i'm doing so i have doubts, how much time do you think that the plant needs to be harvested ? I was thinking on 90 to 100 days and I see that my flowers are very skinny yet, and I would like to get them a little bit bigger.

I know breeders timeline for seeds is unrealistic, but this plant has gone two weeks past expections for seed. Not that I'm rushing it, but does she look ready? I'm only curious so I can have room in my tent for the next two for my perpetual setup. Thanks in advance! 😊

Will Saturday be too late to harvest?
I planned on harvesting this plant on Saturday(2/15)... this is my first grow. Most trichomes appear cloudy to me and I also see quite a bit of amber and purple, a few clear. The purple looks almost clear upon first glance. Is Saturday too late? Pls ignore cat hair in pic 😅

Plant development erratic. How to harvest.
My plant seems to be developing at different rates on different parts of plant. Half the tops seem ready for harvest. Amber trichromes starting to show up. Other areas still white undeveloped buds. Should I till things even out or harvest now. Or harvest in chunks.

The bud site towards the lower middle of the plant. Should I get rid of them if they aren't keeping up with the taller buds or should I leave them to see if they catch up? I have upto 8-10 nodes per stem due to LST training

Burnt buds? Or just normal development?
Orang tips on calyxes? Seems a bit soon. Not all over the plant. Only some bud tips at this point. A few chewed leaves but no signs of bugs that I can find. Some signs of the claw suggest too much nitrogen? Dialing the nutrients to half power. Any ideas or suggestions welcomed!

Buds maturing differently.
One of my Cola is maturing a lot faster than the others. It's hairs have faded to d brown but buds still swelling. Trichomes clear not cloudy. I'm worried it may hermie and I have other plants in Bloom just earlier stage. Should I consider cutting the one off or would it stress?

Underdeveloped Trichomes
Trichomes on #2 are underdeveloped. Do you guys reckon it would help buying a UVB lamp (10 rating) 26 watt and adding those to both growrooms to compensate for the LED's lack of UV lighting? Maybe some Molasses in the feeding (never used it before) ?
