Let them dry for 13 days, lowers the chances of mold a lot.

Hey, it looks like your plant isn't dry yet; the sugar leaves really have a dry appearance when the buds are ready for curing. A good way to know when it's the right time to start curing is when the stems make a "snap" and break cleanly when you try to twist them. Don't neglect the drying; your weed will be much better with a slow dry of about 2 weeks at 60% humidity in the air.

You want the stick to snap if you cure while the inside of the bud is damp you will get budrot if I am hang drying its usually 8/10 days 🙏

If the stem snaps when you bend it, it’s good to to be picked off then branch.
If it just bends and folds over give it a little more time.

Is she ready for harvest? Or what is my next step?Is she ready for harvest? I’m thinking no, but close and I should check her every day.
Yes, my pathetic 1st attempt growing, & I respect the advice given to me to give up & start over, I want to finish to harvest for the learning experience of the whole process.

Trichomes evaluationHello, in the last page of my diary (20), I uploaded some photos of Trichomes that I took with microscope. I believe that they are not ready for my usage (insomnia is my condition) and that I should wait until they are some milky and some amber. Can someone confirm my intuition?

Duración de FloraciónDo they recommend extending the flowering to a total of 14 weeks? The manufacturer recommends 10 weeks, but I'm not sure if that's 10 weeks of the total process (from seed to harvest) or 10 weeks of flowering. The start of flowering was slow due to over-fertilization with a sulfur-based antifungal.

Potential bud rot?My critical cure has some of the smaller leaves near and in the buds which are starting to turn rusty brown. Is this a starting sign of bud rot? Should I cut them early?
I do not see anything abnormal under the microscope or when separating the large buds by hand. Thanks!

Is this the beginning of flowering?Today I spotted some white hair at the top of my auto orange bud… Ist this the beginning of flowering? Just after 18 days after germination? I had hoped that the plant grows bigger for at least another 1-2 weeks..
Did I trigger flowering with LST and removing 3 leaves / nodes?
