Looks great well done

Thanks man! Yea, I am a little impatient but I really don't want the "couch lock" so I thought I would try the harvest now and see how it is and then go by that for future grows :)

Ok so here are my temps in the tent for the past 24 hours. These should hold steady for the drying process.

nice lookin plant!

something you could do when on the fence about harvesting: take a sample bud, chop it up (dries faster), put a fan on it and then put your oven on, say 170, and place it in there to finish drying it, and then smoke it. If you like the buzz, then you're good to go. if it's too racy, let the plant go longer.

i said all the above because that can be done and dry within a day.

Yea that is a good idea. I may to that next time!

it is a great way to find that sweet spot. I usually will grow 3 of the same plant, harvest one a little early, one on time according to the breeder and one a little late, depending on how they look, of course, and see how the buzz changes. Then you can somewhat accurately judge on when that strain likes to be harvested in YOUR garden

After reading this thread I’m curious, what do you think?

 

[YoungPadawan]

I'm guessing they need a little longer since I can still see some clear, but I'm a nude.
