Hey all I finally harvested my final plant after some debate on how long I should have waited for her, previously her buds looked pretty small but she developed and even started turning purple which was really nice, 100% brown pistils, about 50% amber trichs on all the calyx that turned purple so this is my fav plant, here are some pre-harvest pics (thursday 22nd) just before I started trimming and these are Just after trimming (with flash) (and without flash) Drying pic This was a itty bitty nug that i cut by accident, but still fuck look at those trichs And this is Today! drying for 3 days so far, she still has a few extra days to dry yet but …

As promised I have my biggest havest of the season for you all to gaze upon! I posted a couple of pics of this in the Canna porn a couple of weeks ago too before i chopped her down today and boy was it some hard work! So here she is today pre-harvest! closer I took a video too but i'm wondering if i should upload it to youtube, i'm a little worried about uploading that type of content to youtube After 1 1/2 hours here she is: one of the many massive colas and another shot of her drying I havn't weighed her in yet so i'll wait till she's dry Peace!

It's getting rather close to the creame of the crop as i'm saving the best for last, yesterday and today i spent some time chopping down my 3rd last bush, i say yesterday and today becuase I had limited time to cut and trim all the stems and I was fairly lucky today that I didn't get sprung, finishing up everything JUST in time before someone came home and I mean litterally I just wiped the bench and the door opened so this plant was the second of the tallest bushes, i had an early panic harvest I mentioned in another thread last month which means I sacrificed a lot of bud...but i'm not totally at a loss because I got some Heavy dense bud out of this girl, very sticky…

here is my shrub with small chunky buds with lots of white gold on them, take a look at these pics, they're not very far from harvest, i'm dying to try them when it's done! only problem is it just looks like it's almost ready...but at the same time it looks like it is premature, to you peeps does this look like a good yeild? (i'm guessing it's quality over quantity in this case) this is the best shot of the trichs i got the other day this is the plant as it is now the trichs look mostly cloudy, pistils are about 20-30% brown as you can probably see in the pics... this could be some intense high

So I have been flushing these for just a week now and have some pictures to show for it. The buds have crowned up real nice but I can still see alot of lower buds that havnt really fully developed, should I be leaving the whole plant longer to allow these to reach full potential or harvest in two sections? This is what the younger buds look like ^ Peace F D L P.s Also I was thinking of harvesting this sunday in 3 days, would that be too early? or should I consider flushing for longer?

Maybe someone could help me with a question I have...was going to wait another week before harvest..checked weather stats..and next week starting Monday-Wednesday there is a moderate chance of frost. Most of trichs on my plants are milky and a percentage of the hairs are turning brown..maybe 30%. I just don't know do I take a chance and wait till next week or do I harvest tomorrow. What are my risks if I wait...will a frost kill my plants? Don't think its a heavy frost...but I just don't know what do to. Anyone please Thank you

Final Flush
by FDL- 2 replies

Ok so this has been my first grow adventure, and its coming to the end. Im pulling my plants down in a week. Now iv heard that you should do a final flush of the plants with freshwater for the final week to two weeks. My plant is in a 50L pot, does that mean i should water it over the next week daily with 100L over the week? Should that be enough to properly flush it? Im not exactly sure what to do seeing as though I havnt flushed a plant before. My idea was to water it everyday for one week with around 5-10L per day, is this the kind of thing I should be doing?

These photos are taken of the buds on my smaller plant, im not sure how long it has been flowering for now but its been quite a while i guess. Iv looked at the hairs and the crystals, the hairs are becoming more amber but the crystals are still quite clear i think. I only have a x 20 magnifier so i cant tell that easy. Have a look at the photos and let me know how long you think they have left, have they still got a lot of fattening to do? should I keep feeding them or stop and start flushing? I was estimating a week or so.

any help would be great. thanks plant 1 is hanging and we have fast dried a few buds. fairly dense smoke. light high. plant 2 was in the best light position but we believe the same strand as the drying heads of plant 1 plant 6 was the first in the ground with limited life, also we believe tomatoes have stifled the root system. very thin leaves. plant 7 was planted a month after the rest after being re-potted several times. the buds are really light and the leaves a dark green however it is in a shaded position. i obviously have 3 or 4 more, but based on what i've seen these are the different strands, and or stages. and the best shots. thanks again!
