Trichomes ready
GrowingGrannieanswered grow question 3 years ago
It's ready if all you want is an energetic high. If you want some relaxation in there as well, wait until about 10-20% of the trichs are amber. Anything over 30% amber will put you on the couch (if that's where you want to be) and the THC will start to degrade ...
Your choice! Your decision! Good luck!

Hi, It's my first grow and I need advice again. I have a small Orion F1 auto, she's flowering for 24 days (47 days old). I have these buds under scrog that don't get enough light and don't seem to grow fast enough. Do I remove them? Will it help or stun my plant at this stage? TYa year ago

Less trichomesPlant 2 has less trichomes than plant 1, despite being the same strain. The hairs are darkening and curling earlier, and the calyx have slightly purpled tips. Is this just unlucky pheno? Or if it's signs of something wrong, then what could it be?Week 9

Photos and autosHi! As I'm growing some photos and autos in the same tent, side by side... will it be ok to induce flowering and it still not affect the autos harvest? Or should I let them veg and do a bit more canopy management to help keep it low, until the autos are ready to harvest?18/6 nowWeek 2

probably should not defoliate for another week right?
