I'd leave it dj......... Only 2 weeks to go mate

Really, so you think harvest is def, easter time hey.....

I thought as much.

So next step is to now just flush it and no more nutes???

Is this as much as she will produce?

[sargentscraps]

Yeah definitely do not take it out of the pot

I'd keep using nutes for the remainder of this week, flush once or twice next week, then harvest when you're ready... Beautiful girl you've got there mate, congrats

Peace

Thanks all, yea i didn't think taking her out of the pot now would be benefical for her...

Thanks for the compliments, i thought she was a dwarf but know its due to her being in that size pot.

Plant and learn i guess.

But no problem will keep feeding her and flush as of next week then.

Next thing to learn harvesting.... Hard?

harvesting is the EASIEST part! just prepare a nice shady breezy spot to lay out yr branches. Edited April 6, 2011 by demistify

G'day Dj. What ever you do DON"T pull the plant then try to replant, I gaurantee it will die at this stage. Just let it finish then next time BIGGEST pots or the ground.

[djnova]

Yea i'm already looking forward to next grow, hoping to go into ground...

So i'll have 6 months to prepare soil...

gotta research more on this harvesting situation...

I can tell i'll be lucky to get a oz out of this miniature..

G'day Dj. An ounce is better than nothing, and it will taste all that much sweeter because you grew it. An ounce of good head should last for a little while. When you start ground prep the best thing is organic matter, manures, compost, straw, bags of cheap poting mix, blood and bone, lime (dolomite), potash and dig, dig, dig. Lots of mulch around your plants when they are babies to keep weeds down and to conserve moisture. Newspaper can be used in this case about 15mm thick but whatever you use dont let it touch the trunk as you could get collar rot, fatal. I bought a brew called Go-Go juice that is a soil and plant pro-biotic, I only used it once before getting stiffed so can't really comment on it but some of the other lads swear by it. I will be using it from the start next season.

Wow, thanks for the info norm once again...

I'll have to carefully consider the next grow, as in location etc. Thinking the lack of constant warmth may have contributed to its size as well as pot size of course.

Either way i'm sure she will taste great and be worth the wait and amount that i get off her.

Thanks again.

Time to read about harvesting now... Doesn't look or sound that difficult.
