This was the girls last week! I decided to call them finished on day 63 the tricomes are almost all cloudy, with a small amount of amber. Iāve learned that they continue to degrade as you dry and cure your flower, so Iām trying something new for me, and pull them a little earlier than I usually would.
In addition, after watching a podcast (Dude Grows Show) if you donāt know, check it out⦠I decided to run the lights for 18 hours instead of 12/12 for the last 5 days before harvest. The idea behind this, is to stress the plant enough to increase its natural sunblock/protections, which would be terpenes and tricomes just before you harvest, while also possibly quickening the finishing time for your plant. The group was discussing the benefits of this (listed above) while some already had implemented these practices when finishing plants. The recommended time to run extra light time would be around the last 5-9 days of the plant, without having any nanners or weirdness happening with your plants.
Anyways, they finished amazing, sticky, stinky and heavy ā¤ļø the Terps are crazy on these strainsā¦.Harvest details to come. Thanks for stopping by ššØš¦š
