So I am thinking about harvesting a few plants.
If I cut off the bigger buds/branches and leave the smaller ones to go longer will that shock the plant or for some reason not work?

I was thinking about trimming the majority of the leaves b4 chopping the branches. Does anyone else do this, and any easier?

New to the 600, that's the problem. I have a small box that i use a 250 hps in and it works great, but I made a bigger box and put a 600 hps in. Well I had about 20 days to go in the 250 so I put them in the 600 for the last 20 figured id get bigger nuggs. Now im 7 days past my normal grow time and I have alot of trichs but only cloudy at best, no amber. I'd like about 40% amber. The only difference is the light and the 600 is air conditioned. I'm worried they " peaked " and all they wont get anymore potent. I've smoked some and it's nowhere near it's potential. I dont know if I should just harvest know cut my losses and get the next ladies ready or hang tight and wait and see if they resin up?
Wondering if anyone has had a similar experience. Thanks for any and all reply's

Hey tjsap :-) Id say let them go until the buds look ripe for the picking. Iv had plants noticeably put on more trichs in the last week. I also put them in 48hrs of darkness before I harvest. Good luck with the grw :-) and welcome to the 600 :peace:

I cut buds early sometimes but only 1 or 2 that are medium sized,,, the big ones come down only when they are ready hehe but as for shock I dont know but the stress at the end may actually increase trich production, maybe.

And for the trimming, I pull leaves off as they die at the end and usually end up with a pretty clean plant when chop time comes... but I dont think that should change the plant much soo close to harvest but it DOES cut down on trimming time and just makes the process a little easier :-)

You have to be kidding me? ... really? wtf? I dont see large scale commercial operations having to do this! Its obvious that some people think small time growers are a treat to their profits :-( This has to be a bad joke.... fking laws here get worse and worse everyday... Cali or texas here I come.

The Denver Post
DENVER -- The state Board of Health on Wednesday adopted major new rules for Colorado’s small-scale medical-marijuana providers, over the objections of cannabis advocates who said the rules are too harsh.

The rules will require that caregivers — medical-marijuana providers serving five or fewer patients who cannot grow for themselves — do more than just give cannabis to patients.

They must do something extra, such as help patients with shopping, cooking or getting to doctors’ appointments.

Medical-marijuana advocates fear the added responsibilities will severely trim the number of caregivers, which state officials said today stands at 16,000. The advocates say caregivers provide a link to medical marijuana for patients who are poor or who live in areas where there is no convenient access to dispensaries.

But Health Board members said they do not think the regulations present a doomsday scenario.

“There’s a lot of things caregivers are already doing that would meet this definition,” Board President Laura Davis said at Wednesday’s hearing.

The rules will not affect dispensaries, which serve large numbers of patients and are regulated by separate laws.

I don't know if any of you have Twitter but, I just found this guy, his account is shitmydadsays, and he's a guy who's 29 who just writes down what his 74 year old dad says and I got to tell ya, it's hilarious. Here's a taste.

"See, you think I give a shit. Wrong. In fact, while you talk, I'm thinking; How can I give less of shit? That's why I look interested."

Found the website too. http://shitmydadsays.com/. I'm going back for more.

I like this one
"A parent's only as good as their dumbest kid. If one wins a Nobel Prize but the other gets robbed by a hooker, you failed."

and this one
"I turn the kitchen faucet on and the shower burns you, yes, I get it...No, I'm not gonna stop, I'm just saying yes, I get that concept."

The parents one got me too. I think this might be my new favorite here.

Duchie you had me worried that the BC pots were the cause of the stunted growth on your ladies... Glad to know it was the starter cups and not my craftsmanship. Sorry to hear that it happened regardless though.

Oh no, my JH is proof of your pots. She's real close to being done. I figure she's about 70 to 80% cloudy right now but this last week or so the colas are swelling nice. Some is me too, being experimental and all. I've got a nice round of stuff vegging now that's looking nice. It seems that I took a couple of unintentional steps back but we're workin it out.

Ok, so this shit is way too funny. I can hardly keep myself from bursting out and waking up the whole house but I have to post one more.

"Everybody's broke, so here's the rule for Christmas this year; if you still shit your pants, you get a present. Otherwise tough shit."
