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.

First off you got some balls of steel my asshole would have been biting holes in the seat the whole drive!🤣😭 luckily the drive to the safe house is 3 minutes if that down the road lol. It’s my girls moms house which is why I didn’t have them there to begin with. I’m gonna move them during the day during their lights on period I don’t want to risk doing it at night and having some type of light cause her to reveg or herm. Thank you for the fast reply puts my heart as ease ahaha
 
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.

Eh roughly 5 months old. Since the trichs have changed significantly in cloudiness over the last week I think it’s fair to assume that they will continue the Trend. That’s how ripening happens lol they went from 0 Amber a week ago to 10% Amber this week and 5 days from now I’m sure they’ll be 15% 20% trichomes when is when I want to harvest. Too early and I won’t be getting full potential from my plant. Even if the stress delays then and I need to run them a few more days I can I’m not stuck on harvest in 5 days. One plant is slightly behind the rest she def needs to ripen more before harvest. I do however appreciate your advice and I’m not saying you’re wrong. I just have different opinions. If I harvest now I just won’t get the high I’m looking for according to many users on her and links throughout google. I like to be stuck lololol.
I might be totally wrong but either way it’ll be a little experiment and it’ll give me knowledge for my next grow
 
Ah alright, you transplanted already👍
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. 🤪
 
Here’s some photos of my girls. I’ll tell you what these can smoke like corn and give me a headache idc I’m so proud. And honestly they look hella good for a first time

Currently in the process of getting a grow tent, as I also live in texas how did you deal with the smell? I currently am bringing my plants outside to inside, Im just worried my apartment neighbors or staff might smell it later on. The leaves already smell loud cant imagine during buds.

Lol it must be so different being legal I can’t even get my head around how it must feel to not have to be concerned when it comes to growing it must be a real big relief to be legal
You musta had a royal party the day it became legal where you are at
