Just got back into town after a week away. My wife is glad she does not have to go through the nightly list of questions and live video. :) Ain't technology great!!

Any way time for the age old question, I know what I think (we won't dwell on that right now)...

What say the "Farm"? Auto - end week 9 (will try for ten)

Are we there yet

Looks like few more weeks..ha no more stress over not being there..

Yeah, kind of what I figured as well.

Saw a post a few hours after i put this one up. I am no where done, but certainly closing in on the yellow tape. One person said if my leaves are all still green, then i have at least two weeks. So we wait... and wait... hopefully the payoff will be worth it. It smells good. :) I am glad i have the filters or the whole house would be funky and the other half would be in my shit.

Nice grow, looks to be not quite done, give us a trichome check in another week. I’d be looking for the pistils to brown...

Love your grow style bro!!:)

Thank You. Trying to keep it simple, clean and repeatable !!

They got away from me and became leggy. I plan on lowering the lights on the next grow and not taking as long to move them from the grow cabinet to the flower cabinet.

I am sure i can do better. I'll enjoy the fruits and apply the lessons to the next attempt.

Until then....

That’s all we can do brotha. Growing pot is a roller coaster no doubt.

I would give them another week or two...you still have a lot of white pistils...these usually turn redish or diminish somewhat when things are ready. Being an auto, which I'm unfamiliar with, it has it's own schedule...but it looks like another 14 days to me. Better late than early!

Thanks.... I will leave them until the Farm says pull'em. This is the furthest i have ever been able to raise a pot plant. All of the other attempts have ended in total failure and i am a fairly good gardener (without breaking my arm patting my own back). I have planted an entire yard full of ponds and gardens but for some reason this gig has always kicked my ass. This time I think i got it... now if i can just bring it on home.....

Get it dried and cured without friggin fungus/mold. Going to start by drying in the flower cabinet (no lights or res of course) and cure in two cv vaults with 62% humidity packs. It will be much easier to control the humidity and temp. Spring temp swings are a bitch around here. 25 today 60 by Saturday, humidity swing will be just as wide for the next month or so. Then it will be just plain HOT.

FWIW, I used to try grow outdoors around here many moons ago. My biggest success yielded about 8 grams of dried buds. This was in the 70s. I met a guy who grew under halide lights he "borrowed" from a road worksite. He gave me his basic recipe, which I still use today. It's only got about 4 or 5 ingredients, doesn't burn or have any problems. I never looked back at going outdoors after I saw what a 1000 watt MH and a bale of Promix accomplished. In Pennsylvania, the weather is iffy and to grow successfully outdoors you need full sun...something I couldn't do easily due to legal ramifications...plus they were in my backyard!
You have done well and will finish up well. Just be careful with the drying and curing and things will be rosy.

Cloudy/Smokey & Amber? rookie guess-tmention 25% maybe 30? Again, since this is my first harvest i really don't know. All i am going on are videos and articles.

Thanks in advance :cool:

They look great to me, but it is hard, at least for me, to judge anything by looking at photos. My main signs on the Sativa's is an obvious slowdown of newer growth, and a slight color change on the leaves on the buds. The leaves usually start to lose chlorophyll, which is what gives some strains their purple traits. Once these leaves start to look "different" and things sort of feel greasy. Its hard to describe, but the largest buds feel cool, greasy, and hefty. These are some of the general signs that I rely upon.
Some people don't like to let the plants go as far as losing some of their color, which is fine as well. The difference between the two is about a week. FWIW, the info I spoke of is primarily regarding Sativa or Sativa dominant hybrids. Indica is a little different from my experience. They don't always change colors as much, in which case I look at the ends of the larger buds/colas. When finished, they seem like they start to get skinnier and the leaves can get distorted on bud tips. There is also the trichome amber/cloudy method, which might be better for Indica strains.
