Cutting down for harvest
Showmethewaytogrowhomestarted grow question 4 years ago
I'm right on the verge of my first harvest and there seems to be several approaches to cutting down the plants. Should I cut and hang the entire plant or cut and hang individual branches?

High,
Congrats with the harvest!!!
I think its all up to what serves you best, with the conditions you offer.
If you got all the stuff and a perfect clima, I should go for a good week of intire plant drying. And see from then on how to handle it further.
If your not that lucky yet, to have all the goodies, i rather go with cutting it in to pieces. Using carton boxes and a cord to make small drying compartiments is easy and will do the trick.
In all cases, get some minor ventilation on outside the boxes, or in case of the tent, just a flow from the airsubstraction will do.
Grow safe buds!!
🙏🌿🌿🌿🙏

Harvest: I don’t know what’s coming aheadI’m 5 weeks into flower, maybe 3 weeks left, that’s enough time to get anything I’m missing. I watched some vids on youtube. Can someone give me some steps to follow for harvest and what I might need? I have CBD plants, bud formation is not like regular THC plants.

Harvest waste?Hi gang! I've chopped my plants and they're hanging in the tent drying out for approx. 5 more days. The lower branch buds are small and underdeveloped. What do you find is the best use for these? Surely they aren't worth curing and smoking? Is there a use for the trim also?Other. Harvest - Drying

Harvest time?Take a look at my pics. Only one plant is showing amber in the trichomes. RQS state harvest 9-10 weeks from germination. I’m 2 days into week 9. Do you think it’s time to harvest or wait a while? I’ve been flushing for a week.

How much more time for this stunted growth?Looking at photos, weeks, trichomes - some are milky some are transparent. The main cola has evolved, remaining colas are growing.
The plant was stunted due to excess nutrition and PH earlier, that's why small plant.
So how many days more till I chop?(30%ember?but still estimate)Other. Harvest - Drying
