I prefer to keep large colas intact during my wet trim. Keep them attached to the stems and hang them upside down for 10 days to 2 weeks before my second trim and jarring. Light rotating fan action and low to no light.
The stems help that slow dry by providing addition nutrients and moisture...
A little advice. Those of us who have multiple outdoor growths under our belts can tell more from just seeing the plant. Don't get caught up in triches too much. Experienced grows can tell just from how the pistils look and plumpness.
You do need to chop this asap.
This girl is a Durban Poison beauty! Got the seed out of a medicinal jar I picked up in Monterey. Had a perfect summer for her to blossom into this beast. If I put her in the ground, she would have hit 10 ft probably. Based on today's look, she is a week or so away from chop.
Done. Thanks for the input. I was a little paranoid there, even though this is not my first grow, obviously. First time with prime genetics though, thus my paranoid nature yesterday.
Last freeze for awhile was last night. If I keep her in the garage, it looks like a cloudy day in there with light coming through the window.
I am putting her back out now.
She a year old and yes, still a crazy puppy. She eats the fan leaves that fall off, and if I leave any gummies out, she attacks them!!
When she is older, she will be ready for cannabis treatments.
I've had plant's in the ground into week 2 of November here by Lake Michigan. Multiple frosts and light snow. Some of the most beautiful flowers I have ever seen.
I worry more about freeze warnings and rain this late in the grow. One good rain in the 40s and no wind can really fuck everything up.
Shit, I have had plants outside in snow many times. Freeze warnings would concern me, but not frost. Frost actually gives some nice colors to flowers.
Shake the snow off. As long as temps recover the next morning, you'll be fine.
