started grow question 5y ago
I just started drying. Should I have trimmed off the small fan leaves before hanging? Does it make a difference?

It’s all preference imo... it’s easier to leave them on and just pull them off once dried, rather than cutting each one off. I take the time and get the larger one’s off, but you’ll be fine either way!

I've read many reviews on both on forums, mostly prefer the "dry trim" due to many reasons. try searching for this term.

Harvest Time?
Hello fellow greenthumbs... Got one AUTO AUTO Zkittlez from fast buds. The ZkittelZ isnt looking too good. Had nutrient block, but she produced fat buds any way. I overfed a little, was first time growing Auto. Thanks for advice

When could I start to harvest?
When do you guys think I could start harvesting? I’m in week 9 of a Fast Eddy CBD grow. This strain only had 9% THC so I didn’t know if this would mean the trichomes don’t go as milky.

Theory correct ? Dring for the first Days
Theory correct ? freshly harvested plant for 2-3 days at 18C(64.4F) and 60% RH to get the water activity of the plant down faster, then dry for 12-14 days at 16C 60&RH (60.8F) Good ?

Freeze dry method
I think I found a nice easy way to freeze dry. I take a half gallon mason jar full of weed that's been drying for 5 days capped. Put it in the freezer for 45 minutes. Then take the out, take the cap off, and use a USB fan to pull out the moist air. What do you guys think?

More Bigger OR Haevest
This is the first time I have planted one of them for about 20 weeks. Is it big enough now? Can I harvest this week? I did not use any nutrient solution, I used organic fertilizer for feeding.
