Cut the top bud 15 days before harvest
zebarrilstarted grow question 4y ago
Hello everyone, in 15 days I will harvest my first cycle. One of the plants is not supporting the weight of the top bud and keeps falling to the sides.
Would it be okay to cut this top bud before harvest? I think it would be possible to bring the plant closer to lighting.

Get some yoyo plant hangers. They are fairly cheap and a necessity if growing huge buds. Of course you can use DIY methods if preferred. But they are very handy.

One of the things I do is to take a strip of soft cloth and literally tie it to the top of the tent so it's supported... this won't/doesn't harm the bud and you can keep it going until you're ready to harvest. If this isn't an option, you can always put a long-enough stake in the pot and loosely tie it to the stake... ANYTHING to give it support that it's crying out for! Don't give up on it!
Sounds like it's going to be a great harvest - some people would kill for such a heavy bud!

It weighted 35 grams fresh, and now it weights 8 grams wich is around 25% of the initial. Is it ready to cure? Most people said it needs 10 to 15 days to dry. Weather is really dry, temp is 28°

Light damaged colas, possible hermie or seeding?I underestimated how tall my autos would get in my tent and some colas ended up getting less than an inch from my lights. Most colas were fine but 2 seem to have mutated in some way. Calyxs grew way more leaves and pistils per each individual calyx. Is this a major problem?

Weird buds??So my buds have some weird growth I think?
My girls have developed these growths at the top (and sides) of the buds.
Is this normal? Do I need to fix it?
My noob logic tells me ‘buds are getting bigger = all good’.
But not sure if it’s a problem? Please help. Huge thanks

Week 9, huge flowers but absolutely zero trichomes and terpenes!Week 9, Banana Blaze auto. Huge flowers but absolutely zero trichomes and terpenes! The other two phenols are frosty and smell great. Bad pheno or do you think she will come around and produce later on? She is already fading out so I feel like she doesn’t have much time...

Bananas, WHAT DO I DO??????I’m into my 6th week of flower
My caramel strain has started shooting off what I believe to be nanners. I noticed a few days ago and have been plucking them but am noticing more coming out. I’m sure I’ve missed some but should I keep plucking and cross my fingers or just harvest?

To harvest or not to harvestAny opinions on whether I should harvest based on the pics I posted. A lot of people will say, NOT YET, wait until all the hairs are orange, then you read on some sites that say 100% orange is too late. I prefer the 'up' high vs couch lock. Trichomes are clear/milky with a few am5y ago

Nitrogen deficiency, Hermie, or normal?The tops of some of my buds are yellowish. I am growing a mixed feminized seed so not sure what strain it is. Can anyone tell me if what I am seeing is normal? The leaves are turning yellow a bit, but the plant is about to begin the 5th week of flowering.
