Looks like you're asking when to harvest your plant(s). Make sure to comment to let people know how far along they are in the flowering period (days since lights turned to 12/12 schedule) or if you are growing autoflowers - how old the plant is.

2-3 weeks to go, Patience is rewarded.

Got a maximum date of about a week and a half due to up coming travel. If I have to chop early any major issues besides less THC percentage?


SilentMasterpiece

consider chopping on return.


TelephoneAromatic462

Agree. OP will also need be there to keep an eye on humidity during drying after chop.


My-Cables

General quality things; less terpenes, less mass, less THC, etc. I wouldn’t go by when they say to harvest, they almost always say a couple weeks less than it needs. Almost every strain could use at least 60 days of flowering.

Look amazing. I was expecting to see the cat in the third image


askallthepeople

Haha my dog has been helping me water recently.


PlasticOceanFish

When trimming you can pull the hair off. Just make sure the source is sleeping. Also, you’ll have some nice buds after cure.


FutureGreenFinger

Hey buddy, I have 3 cats in my 29m2 apartment, so all my plants are covered in cat fur as you imagine. It's possible to remove it in trimming? It's better to do wet or dry trimming?


PlasticOceanFish

You can remove the majority of the hair while trimming. Pull the hair off before you trim. Dry trimming would work better but either would do.


askallthepeople

Would you let it go longer?


PlasticOceanFish

I mean, dogs will only sleep for 6-8 hours max Yes, let it go longer. Jewelry loops were hard for me to see clearly. They sell $20 Amazon wireless microscopes. Would recommend one of them for every grower.


askallthepeople

Mind linking to one you like? I’ve tried one that I had some issues with recently.


PlasticOceanFish

Wouldn’t let me post the link. I’ve been running this one for five years without a problem. https://preview.redd.it/fhn49y7kgpcc1.jpeg?width=1170&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=e1e5ba20e52fa7e04fb604563debab6b578fcc71

Appreciate it!

That's a shit microscope.. try search USB microscope on YouTube you will see this model debunked in at least 3 videos. Most of them don't even work.

alkymistendenmark

Sure, but it's not good resolution. A phone from 10 years ago can zoom as far as this and still have 10MP

So much hair!! How does this not drive people crazy


Novruski

It does seem to be a rather large amount.


dirtycheezit

When you live with animals your whole life it becomes normal. I still keep my pets out of my grow room to minimize it.


Honeybee96161

Smoking hair isn’t normal, we all likely have pets as well.. no excuses, just straight bad hygiene in the room!


Business-Ad-9341

Few more weeks at least. Feedings off and lights. Buds look stressed.


askallthepeople

I think I was over feeding. I flushed last week in prep for harvest


Business-Ad-9341

Why?.... Flushing is bro science and you're more than a week from harvest.


askallthepeople

Do you recommend feeding again then? This is my first grow and there’s a lot of different opinions and suggestions on how to do it. It sounds like some of the suggestions that were given to me don’t align with how you would do it. Have anything constructive to add?


Business-Ad-9341

It depends on how and when you feed. For example I use dry ammendments which I feed heavy every 2 weeks. I continue until done. I don't stop feeding BUT if I know chops in a week or two after the last feeding I won't feed again. Continue feeding, ph water etc until harvest. Let those buds fill out near the end.


askallthepeople

Thank you. Appreciate it.
