Harvest time
Mike_269
started grow question 2y ago
Whats your procedure regarding harvest time? Do you wait till the smaller lower buds are turning amber or do you harvest already when the top cola is like you want it?

Look at several places and take a consensus based off the bulk of your good buds. The bottom fluff isn't important, that mostly edibles fodder anyway.

How to introduce more lights into environment - pic is with new light installed, hard to notice a difference,
Introducing a new grow light in week six. Still vegging. Do you think this will be too much shock for my plants given their stages of growth? I've already got it hung, night time is in 3 hours, but I was thinking of maybe raising it up and slowly lowering it to other lights?

Friends who use the application (GrowDoc) tell me it gives out truthful information? And are there other similar apps for this?

Advice for harvest
It’s 11 weeks. Don’t have a great magnifying glass and don’t really know what I’m doing anyway. Should I give this one more time to mature?

Light burn or nutrient issues? Female?
Does this look like light burn and maybe a lack of nutrients? Also can someone confirm that she’s a female or is it too early? I am first timer and think I see her lady parts already.
