Keep on truckin your doing great :)

I would wait till 80% of the hairs have turned red and then start scoping. If you feel you are at that point just watch closely at the balls at the end of the stick. The trichomes LOL! Once some of the bulbous trichome heads have went from clear to milky your getting close. Could even be right on depending how you like your meds. Once i see those clear/milky trichome heads i then start to examine very patiently and slow looking for those few trichomes that have turned amber. Once you see some amber or 10% amber trichomes then its time to chop. Always wait a day or two for a little more amber trichome goodness. The more amber the stonier body feeling you will get. The clearer the trichomes the more speedy and clearer the high will be. You might just like some milky trichomes. You will have to experiment with them all so you can figure out what you like or if growing for patients as well then what they like too. Its a tough process but one of the most important parts of your growing cycle. Hope this helped you in one way or another. Good luck with everything and i hope it goes great for ya. Have fun keep it real and always have a happy growing of a day. Peace out weedgirl you rock!

PM me if you need anything :)

A watched pot never boils.. looking good though. I would say a few more days, your trichs are a little darker than a few days ago. Also I'll add YUM!!! Your bud looks very nice.

Great :) Thank's.

I just changed the water, and the question is if should add food or just use clean water from this point on.

CrippledArcher · Dec 13, 2011

Just proper PH water at this point, Especially if you have 1 to 2 weeks tops for a good flush!

They are getting RO water with nothing in it now. I gave up on adjusting the PH of RO water before or without adding nutrients to it, I think I need some better equipment then the stuff I have, to measure it.

I will flush from now till harvest then. Hopefully that is not too far away :)

A 40-60x loupe will zero in on those bulbous heads of the trichromes. That is where I like to focus in to determine ripeness.

Agreed! =]

You got it right weedgirl

Only plain water at this point

No need to ph

got anymore pulled back shots instead of the closeups? Be interesting to see the progress compared to the shots you posted originally

U bet :D

This first one is my Christmas tree. I might break with tradition and harvest it now so I can smoke it for Christmas, so if you don't get a visit from Santa this year, it's because he is chilling at my place :)
