Blackcat13
started grow question 3y ago
First time growing purple strain (Purple kush). Are the trichomes going purple and not amber, or it's just the bud colour reflection?

Hello, I see differt type of purple strains, some of them show an amber final trichomes and some show a purple color inside. So i think that you can expect to see their trichomes become amber or violet at the end. Good luck.

Hey everybody, just wondering about the reasoning behind putting your plant into darkness before the harvest? Does this do something to the trichomes or the THC or CBD levels? Any advice would be helpfull. Thanks Much👊

Flowering. 19 days left supposedly : are the trichomes already milky?
Many pistils are getting dark and it seems some trichomes are already milky but I'm not sure. I had many setbacks during the grow but I didn't think a plant would be that early. How much time do I have left ? I didnt start senescence yet (end of week)

Pruning weak branches in week 3 flower?
First grow, flower week 3. I counted 18 colas today, for a 1.7gal pot and only 75watts of LED, would it be bad to remove 3-4 of the weakest looking ones? Or to remove some of the budding sites lower on the branches that don't get much light? Worried about popcorn buds Thanks!

Early Amber Trikes
Mystery strain, pretty sure its Strawberry Cookies https://supersativaseedclub.com/cannabis-seeds/strawberry-cookies.html#/26-seeds-3_feminized_seeds Hairs are still yellow but trichomes are mostly opaque with 5-10% amber. Harvest now or will buds still swell/ripen?

I'm curious about the general look of my 2 plants for their time. ending week 5/ starting week 6. First 4 pics are "black sugar", the last 2 pics are "white widow". Should the pistils be this color this early? Any herming? Any other very concerning things? Thanks so much!

Harvest or leave go for 2-3 more weeks
Light burned buds only 6 weeks into flowering (8 week flower). What to do? Harvest? I corrected the light issue, which I think caused this. Should I still try to let them go a few more weeks? What happens after all the white pistils go brown?

Hello, it's to know if when we're done drying the buds, if it's possible to do the cure but with the buds we've grinded? because it would take less space.

Hey guys, how much time do you have for harvest? Trichome pictures were taken over the calyx. The reason I ask this everyday is that trichomes should not be narcotic🤪
