/hey I can't belive I'm stillregistered here! Anyhow, I have a couple of outdoors I'm about to pull, and I've been trying to cure a couple of buds so I get it right. When I do though, they smeel really crap. I have been hanging them in my shed for about a week (the first bud was small so I should have done it less) until the stem is just about to break, then jaring them. I am giving them some air once a day. Will the nice smell come in the jar process? I took all the shade leaf off and trimed at the start. The shed has interior walls, and there are two windows that let air through. It is not pitch black but it is dark. I ahve no idea how to check the humidity. W…

Situation: my 3 outdoor plants in northern NSW have produced reasonable buds that have had clear trichomes visible for a few weeks now. None appear to have changed colour yet, though many of the small hairs that protrude from the nodes have turned reddish orange. Due to family emergency, I have to head back to WA for 3 to 4 weeks on Monday. Question: based on people's experience, am I better advised to harvest NOW (slightly early) - or to wait 3-4 weeks and return to whatever I happen to find? It seems the general consensus is that once half the trichomes have gone amber, THC starts deteriorating rapidly. I'd hate to return to plants that have lost most of their po…

Hi Guys, Hope all is well. Got a plant that is premium indica (grown from the same seeds before). these have been growing outdoors and artificially induced the budding cycle on 10 February 2011 (by putting plant in complete darkness 12 hours a day). Now I had a rich strong buddy crown. The hairs are about 80% white and 20% brown. Just curious about when I will reach about 50% brown hairs or (alternatively) when I would be ready to harvest? All opinions welcome. Cheers

Hey guys, I tried looking at the above main harvest post, and am a bit nervous. Here are a few photos of my NL5, sorry they're blurry. First 3 are plant 1, second 3 plant 2. Are they ready to harvest immediately, is it already too late, or shall I wait for the weekend? Thanks in advance!

Hi Folks, My small plant which i planted around mid to end novemberish (i'm bad with dates) started to flower or hair a few weeks back. The pictures was taken this morning. I was wondering if the flowers will get any bigger or if its ready to be harvested. To give an idea of the size, its as big as my index finger. also on the underside of the plant there are smaller flowers. i was wondering if i just cut off the branches that look ready and let the other keep growing?

Hi, They say to flush the plants two weeks before harvest. I have trouble deciding when there is two weeks growing left. What signs should I use to determine when to flush? Thanks, Bigrat
