Trimming/Collecting Kief Setup
starkestarted grow question 4 years ago
I harvested my first very sticky plant and was planning on collecting kief while trimming. My current setup (mesh screen on top of glass, mirror, plastic) did not work well. Can someone share their comfortable trimming/collecting setup please? Thanks 🙏

Hey Growmie ...
I would suggest using silkscreen. You take the trim and rub it across the silkscreen and the kief will fall through the bottom so make sure you have something underneath to catch it. I found this is still the easiest and cheapest way for collecting kief without buying expensive equipment like a dry sift tumbler.
Hopefully, this was helpful and remember ..."Happy Growing" and "Free your mind one puff at a time".

First time harvesting, I have been looking at the Trichomes and see a bit of amber but none on the buds itself. Any ideas on how much longer I should wait, also why are there so many white/yellow hairs if the Trichomes are already turning amber.

When to start my flush (lots of close up pics)I'm curious when I should to begin flushing one of my plants. I know I don't have a diary for her, but she's in her 6th week of flowering starting her 7th week on Wednesday (August 5th) and from what I've read Dread Bread takes between 8-9 weeks to finish. Any opinions?

How many dry harvest? Guess pleaseHow many dry grams is a realistic expectation? I know it's hard to tell but if she keeps growing like this, keeping in mind her lifespan of about 12 weeks, would it be about 30 grams? Or 100? Give me a guess pleaseWeek 5

A lot of red pistils and leaves dying around budShe feels very dry and looks dead - there’s still a sticky feeling to her and her trichomes are there. This is the only place om the plant affected this badly... is this reason to chop? She looks more normal further down the stem.

Removing popcorn buds and small bottom branches/flowers on Week10Hi guys,
Day66 with my autoflower, 3 more weeks to go before harvest.
This is my 1st grow so I didn’t do too much besides LST. No topping, no fimming etc.
Is it safe to remove the popcorn buds from the bottom and some small branches that don t reach light? Will this hurt her?
