Pocket microscope
RFarm21started grow question 3 years ago
Hi. I have a pocket microscope (microbite plus da Carson from Royal Queen Seeds) to see the trichomes, is it reliable to cut a sugar leaf to look at them and determine from there? Or does it really have to be the trichomes that are in the buds to know their true state? Thanks

Check it on the buds dude, thats what you gonna smoke, them sugar leafs is trim.
Check all parts of buds too both highband low - no point chopping something half ready ;)
GrowCNanswered grow question 3 years ago
Different parts of the plant mature at different rates. So inspect what you want to check for ripeness. Even the base of a large bud can have different ripeness than the tip.

The trichomes on the sugar leaves mature faster then those on the buds. So I find its best to check the buds.

Three more weeks of flower until harvest or more?Starting this week, I was thinking of using Advanced nutritions Overdrive for two weeks then flushing for one week. So, three more weeks of flower then harvest. I'm skeptical if that's enough. Would it work with three more weeks of flower or should I wait more? First time growingWeek 15

Humidity too low, any ways getting 60% without a humidifier?I am struggling to get my humidity high enough as it keeps trying to fall to 30-40% and I'd like it to be above 60% - any good tips how to do this and how much it will affect the plant? Laundry hanging near tent gives ~10%+, I've also tried misting some water every few hours.

Almost chop, should I stop feeding?I am not sure how much longer. I think a week to 2 but should I stop feeding nutrients? It is day 60 and I am giving it a light feeding until I hear back from you all to decide what I should.
Check out pictures of trichomes and should I just use straight PH’d water til chop?

Time to harvest? (2)Hello, I have this clone but I don't know what is this strain ... I don't have a magnifier to check trichomes so I have to decide to harvest based on pistils.
The plant is at day 59 of flower.
Do you think it's time to harvest or it's better to give her 1 one more week?

Harvest timeHow much until harvest? I’m 9th week of flowering, she’s getting some burn but the thricomes are still not turning to amber. I don’t have a better macro lens, so can’t give higher magnification. She is photoperiod, changed to 12-12 like 11 weeks ago.

First time FIM, does it look normal a few days later?Hi Growmies,
Just wondering if this FIM attempt is looking any good a few days on? It's just that I am struggling to visualise how it will end up? To me, she looks like she is carrying on growing in the "Christmas tree" format. Did I miss a FIM lmao? Is that possible? lol.. TY
