The Hunt for Amber Trichomes- How long till Harvest?
Noob_queststarted grow question 6y ago
It’s D85 of advertised 75days and I’m struggling with the wait.
Most of white pistils are result of foxtails. (Which I am ok with)
Feels like it’s gone on ages but I can’t see any amber trichomes, and it’s not clear if they’re milky yet!
How long do you think I have left? Thanks

u are very close, you prob. have a week left maybe tops 9 days, keep looking though at the tris, im seeing a few here and there, so your harvest window is open right now, she is ready when you are ready to cut if you do not make it a week. but your good to harvest anytime now

Hello
I think you're looking good. In my experience with any xxl strains they've usually taken longer...not just larger in size but larger in growth timeline. I saw some amber in photo 8, and some milky in the other photos.
All the white pistils are from foxtail? Because I feel like I'm seeing a good amount of white low on the plant too..and usually my foxtails attack the top of the plant.
Almost every grow I've done it usually goes past the "recommended time" at least a couple weeks. There's just no way they can account for all growing environments. So I think you should go at least another week maybe 2 and keep taking photos of the middle buds not the top foxtails to gauge the trichomes. And also start doing a flush over these weeks.
Maybe you could drop the light hours to 16 and increase the airflow and hopefully it'll slow down any more foxtail.
Happy harvesting. ✌️

Curing weed not being at home?I have some plants hanging to dry. However, when I should start the curing process in airtight jars, I'm going on vacation and won't be home for 2 weeks to open the jars once a day. I don't know how to manage and store my weed during my absence.

Are they ready to chop? Plz help :( getting mixed signalsHello, I'm having trouble figuring out if I should harvest right now, or not. All of the leaves are yellowing, but you can see in the photos that there are still plenty of white pistils and the trichs are still only around 10% amber. don't want the buds to start yellowing too

Weed smells dry like regular cut grass. What to do?I harvested parts of my laughing buddha and I've dried it for a few days now and the thing is, it smells like regular cut grass. When I touch it it smells like it's supposed to but when I open the jar it smells only like cut grass. Other plants have their unique smell tho. Help6y ago

Is it harvest time?Autoflower seed packs indicated 8-9 weeks but the smell from the tent is mild maybe medium and the buds are only a little bit sticky. These pictures of each plant are at day 84. Am I too late or do they need more time? Many milky trichomes and amber pistols.

How do you harvest in hydro (drip system with a tank) when some are late ?Half of the plants are late (chlorosis, iron toxicity, nitrogen overfd) on a scrog net. As individual flush is impossible, I guess I have no choice than having different batches of ambered trichomes ! And I thought about different strains next time, sweet dreams...

Grassy smell on buds 3 weeks into cure.I'm like 3 to 4 weeks into curing my buds. Took one today to vape it, and it still smelled grassy. I'm burping once every 4 days now, and the buds have 2 4g Integra BOOST 62% packs inside. When I open jars, hygro says 59-60%. What should I do differently about the grass smell?Other. Curing
