Main versus secondary maturing
floridaboystarted grow question 7 days ago
This secondary lower buds seem to be maturing faster than the main colas. The pistils are turning dark faster on the lower than the upper. Not by much, but it's noticeable. Maybe a week or so? BUT, should I take the secondary buds first and leave the main colas to mature more?

It is not uncommon for secondary lower buds to mature faster than the main colas. This can be due to several factors including light distribution, airflow, and the plant's natural growth patterns.
Yes, you can harvest the secondary lower buds first and leave the main colas to mature further. This is known as a staggered harvest and is a common practice among growers. It allows you to ensure that all buds reach their peak potency and flavor.
Carefully cut the lower buds that are ready for harvest. Use sharp, sterilized scissors to avoid damaging the plant. Make clean cuts to prevent stress to the remaining parts of the plant.
After harvesting the lower buds, continue to provide optimal conditions for the main colas. This includes maintaining proper light, humidity, and nutrient levels.

No importa que los pistilos se oxiden,lo que realmente debes de estar Rev dando son los tricomas, cuando se ponen lechosos tiene efecto eufórico, si están ámbar, lechosos tiene un efecto mixto y si están totalmente ámbar tendrá efecto narcótico

Drying Best Practices?Drying ganja for the first time. Buds are in the dark with temp steady at 70F. Humidity steady at 55%. Trimmed fan leaves, but left all sugar leaves. Plant is stinking like wet grass on the 3rd day of drying. Will this smell break down or am I needing to make some adjustments?4 years ago

General concerns about the plant health and expectations from her.Will nute burn have a big affect on my final yield? Are my buds likely to increase much in size? Leaves discolouring normal at this stage? Does she look likely to produce just popcorn bud at this point? Can I do anything about it? Also not many leaves on the plant?4 years ago

Reddish brown pistils, end of week 3 of flower.Pistils turning reddish brown and curling. Day 20 of flower. Female seeds. No sign of hermie. Only new addition to schedule was calmag which was added at half the recommended dose. Everything else looks and measures fine. Wind or nutrient burn?

Harvest... 7-10 more days?Pulled a few tester buds to try and check trichomes and smoke. Thinking 7-10 days longer on these... might let some go even longer. What do you think? Testers are potent, strong head high. I like more of a couchlock high, husband prefers head high. Testers were cut 3 days ago.

Do I have a Hermie?I have two girls from seeds from last year's outback crop. They are two absolutely different growing phenotypes. The one I called bastard #2 was stretching and stretching and I've done a lot of training with it and I just noticed these little balls forming under the buds.

Harvest help again... pleaseSecond grow, I’m second guessing myself!
I took a few branches last week for my husband who likes a heady high; I prefer more of a couchlock high but we both prefer high thc bud. Planned on harvesting Saturday morning, should I harvest as planned? Now? Wait longer?
Thanks!🌱

White Spot Main ColasHeyHo fellow Cannabistas,
Please have a look at todays photos of the widow. I mentioned bright white Spots in the Top of the Main colas. First thought was light/heatstress, but it's 23°C on the top of the plants... in my opinion, good...
Ideas anybody? Thx, OimRausch
