How bad did i screw up?

[Carbonfylter]

So I got ahead of myself and chopped at the first sign of amber trichs and was told that all my trichs are on sugar leaves and not actual bud, does that mean I dont actually have much usable bud? They look like buds to me but now im worried

 

[Herb & Suds]

Buds" yes
but chopping early leads to less potent , poorer tasting weed
Next time wait until those orange pistils recede into the bud before checking Trich's on buds

 

[Wizzlebiz]

Usable in what sense?

It will still smoke, it will still get you high. It might not be as potent as it could have been but its still weed.

I wouldn't sell it if I were you. But then again I dont sell lol. So what do I know.

I will say if I bought that from someone I wouldn't go back.

I see tons of white hairs
try going by that method the next run, wait til they are all orange and shriveled

I've found the internet is horribly misleading. Bullshit like wait for 80% of pistils to turn red and then chop is fucking malarkey.

My buds don't get amber for about 2 weeks after all the pistils have turned. Legit every time.

I wonder if that's for sativas which almost always are chopped early , who's gunna really wait 6months?

I think they say 60% start your flush

Me. Every time. But I grow enough to last me a long ass time so im stocked. Im in no rush.

 

[xtsho]

What strain is that?

Yep but yet we tell people to Google shit daily here. Hahahaha

 

[Carbonfylter]

Man that sucks i must've cut many weeks early. Disappointing but I'll remember it for next time. Still think it looks better than 80% of what I find on the streets though so I'll take it lol

Your concern is with chopping early. My concern is with the entire growth of the plant.

I'd use it for oil, no fucking way I'd ever smoke that.

Not healthy plants. Purple stems, yellowing leaves at the budsites - nasty!

Damn that bad huh? I'm new so would you mind elaborating on what exactly makes it nasty by having some yellows and purple stems?

How long have you been smoking?

I'd assume a while. So let me tell you about nasty.

Black market weed. Alot if it is grown outdoors. Outdoors there are bugs. They shit in the weed, get stuck in the weed, cause bud rot in the weed and the dealers cut it hit it with a leaf blower and sell you that shit.

Thats fucking nasty. What hes grown isn't perfect but it a far cry from what nasty truly is.

So did I. Until my shit shrunk down to nothing while drying.

Its not. Your fine. Hes being dramatic.

Must be nice to grow perfect plants. You have a link to your grow journal he can check and you can show what you’re talking about.
