When to harvest CBD-rich flowers
Imzzz
started grow question 6y 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.

Should i harvest even tough the buds are so small ? Or wait 2-3 weeks ?
I've small buds due to not enough defoliation and nitrogen overflow due hot weather. This week the buds started finally getting bigger but i was already thinking about harvesting this week and from day or two the buds got noticible bigger for me, should i harvest or wait ?

Pistils are orange/brown at the calyx. Is this normal at this stage? (DAY 86 total - DAY 38 Flowering)
Pistils are orange/brown at the calyx. Is this normal at this stage? (DAY 86 total - DAY 38 Flowering) I took one calyx out and open it (foto). Only some mushy green staff no hard things and no seed.

How much yield to expect?
These are 3 white widows, 18 weeks old and in their 7th week of flower - Maybe another 2 weeks til harvest. Average height is 36 inches. I'm new at this and was hoping someone more experienced might be willing to make a guess at what the final yield at harvest might be. Thanks!

Оцените, помогите
Что за ржавчина на моих листьях на 126 дне? Это дефицит cal-mag или проблема с корнями? Как вы думаете, как выглядит моя девочка? Созрела ли она?

Used General hydroponics Ripen too early
General hydroponics Ripen. Instructions are to use the last two weeks of flower. I thought I had two weeks. It’s looking like two more weeks. Should I stop using it or just run it for four weeks?

How do i deal with the dark period before harvest?
Hi guys, My plant is now getting ready and is 20% amber at the top buds. Im wondering how i should deal with the dark period now, put the whole plant in darkness and then cut off the top 3rd only, with the rest of the plant continuing to ripe? Could this work? Best regards!

Ernten oder Warten?
Mein erster Grow, AK-77v Auto. Gestartet Anfang August auf Balkon, leider im September wenig Sonne und viel Regen. Seit ca 1 Woche in Growzelt mit Led, 150 Watt. Man sieht wie sich die Pflanzen/Buds strecken und jetzt doch weiterentwickeln. Aber lohnt sich das noch, Hermiegefahr?
