Cut now or give it a few more
Itsgnomegrownstarted grow question 4y ago
My buds have yellowed off my fans and singles are starting to yellow off and I’m close to being ready to harvest. But as I go to chop her down white pistils keep poppping out some of the tops and it’s probably from stress. Should I cut her down or give her a few more days and see

Organomananswered grow question 4y ago
If this is a photoperiod plant, going to 11/13 can stop the reflowerings from continuing and encourage the plant to finish.
I imagine, if this is an auto, reducing the light cycle by 2 or 3 hours would have the same effect.
I would try the light reduction for a week then chop, if there are 90-95% brown pistils, otherwise continue with the reduced light cycle until there are 90-95% brown pistils and harvest then.
Hope this helps, Organoman.

Slow flowering; short plantsFirst time grow indoors - do they look OK? I trimmed a couple of the fan leaves off one of them to get more light to pre-flowers.

Not FloweringMy current grow has experienced a complication as they are in week 4 of flower and there’s no sign of buds only the beginnings of calyx and pistils developing. What could be stunting them from flowering.

Yellow sugar leavesI am waiting for a low-THC strain to develop amber trichomes and I found two buds with these yellow sugar leaves. There is no bud rot, should I wait longer to harvest? Also, do CBD strains develop amber trichomes, or should I harvest now? Additional details available in growdiaryBuds. Other

Where does the bud formSo I was wondering about plant anatomy, I have been pinching off new branches from the intra nodes. Denying the plant new tops making 16 main tops. Will buds still form down the 16 mains from the top or did I just pick all the buds sites down the plant...!?Week 8
