Long story short I’m a first time grower who grows in an apartment in Texas. My original landlord didn’t care, but new ownership took over and they are telling me the smell needs to be gone by next week or they’ll take legal actions. I’m beyond exhausted on funds so a carbon filter isn’t in my budget.
I have a safe house I can move my grow too. It is 3 small plants and they are literally 6 days away from harvest and this is my first ever grow. I can move them to this location tonight I’m just wondering, is this move going to seriously affect my plants? Should I cut them down now and dry at the safe house? I feel like 2 of my plants would be okay to be cut now one of them is just a little behind the others hence why I’m waiting this last week. She’s still throwing pistils and has prolly 40% clear trichs 60% cloudy.
I guess the main questions are should I move plants to safe spot and harvest on my expected date or should I harvest early and let dry at the safe spot. I don’t wanna move my plants go to check on them tomorrow and they be dead yknow

They'll be fine to move. As a former underground grower myself, I can't tell you how many times I've had to do this. Try driving a 28 foot Penske truck loaded to the gills with plants in 25 gallon pots through Denver up to a remote location in the mountains.. Back when it was still illegal as hell. White knuckle the whole way.

They'll be fine. I'd suggest doing the move during the "lights on" period if you plan on doing it during the day, or "lights out" period if doing the move at night. Try not to water before the move, wait till after the move, then water them really well. This will help any shock they might experience from the move, and make moving the pots easier when they're not soaking wet.

Other than that it's not really a big deal just move them as carefully as possible.

So I made the move. It’s actually 10x better than how I had it originally, the lung room is actually controllable now and I got a ac unit for it. The plants hate me rn they look awfully sad lol but they have 5 days left then we chopping them. The temp and humidity are high rn but it’s bc the room hasn’t stabilized yet. It’ll all work out if it doesn’t I chop a little early ‍♀

If i remember your current grow correctly, those plants are already very old due to common starter growing errors. So 1 or 6 days probably is not going to make any difference anymore at this point. Brother, not in offence, i just remember that those ladies might have been surviving. They look good as they are now though and are probably ready to be cut, especially considering the situation.

Yeah they were photos they got transplanted roughly 85 days ago. I let them veg for 2 weeks after the transplant before flipping to flower. They were already big girls before the transplant so it didn’t really harm them much at that point they were strong. After the transplant mostly everything ran smooth especially considering my whole setup only costed like 200$

Glad to hear. Good luck with the rest of the run. If it would be mine, i would be cutting already.
