I'm a relatively experienced outdoor and glasshouse grower but every year, one of my plants challenges me. Here's a plant grown from feminized seed and now seems to be showing signs of being a hermaphrodite. For certain, it's producing some seeds, which could still be a female plant reacting to...

Judging by the second photo, she still has some days in her I'd say.

They'll be ok. If you have time and an east and south window, move them from place to place according to the Sun.

Sorry, but on this site, you are lucky to get anyone to reply at all and you won't ruin your first grow from one person's opinion; you'll ruin it if you don't do your homework and get as many opinions as you can. So, take this from a guy who has grown at least more than once. ;-) I'd harvest...

I've never heard of that strain, but it looks nice! I wouldn't harvest just because of the 24 darkness, but I think it's true that it could trigger some kind of stress reaction and maybe something like your plant could start to go hermaphrodite, however, I think this won't happen and your plant...

Hard to say what makes them look stringy, but low light would certainly affect branch growth during vegetation time. Looks like you might be slightly over-fertilizing or over-watering, according to the curled up leaf tips and yellowish leaves. Be sure to flush it with nice clean water for the...

Yeah, it definitely looks like it could use at least a week, but like you said, that's if the mold stays away. If you have to harvest now, I think you'll be satisfied with your smoke. Good luck!

These need more time. The hairs should start to shrivel back into the bud and turn red. Also the calyx need to swell more. You've got at least two weeks to go, maybe more and of course depending on weather. But hey, I'm on this site to get tips as well, but noticed we are sort of here left...

These need more time. The white hairs need to start shriveling up, turning a bit read and sort of retrieving back into the bud. I don't know your strain, but it looks like the calyx (the bud itself) needs to swell more. Cannot say how much longer, but longer. My thoughts anyway...

Mold is such a bitch. I lost some of my best branches last year to mold. It mostly came from caterpillars (bud worms) eating and shitting which creates the right environment for mold spores to work their bad magic as temps cool. This year, I used BT spray to fend off the little bitches . Are...

Looking nice and frosty! Yummy! I'm on this site to get others' opinions as well, so take mine as that of just some dude who likes to grow. The hairs look like they could turn red a bit longer, but it looks damn close. I'd give it a bit longer. Can't say how long though. How are the...

I posted a few weeks back asking about a strain called Shaman, which is supposed to be a cross between skunk and F1 purple. Anyway, I didn't see any replies. Thought I'd throw some new pics up about a week from the last ones and see who might respond. As is often the case, I really doubt...

Just a novice to a certain degree, but those need more time. Three weeks at least by my eye, but only feel confident to say they are not ready yet.

I've got a "shaman" strain outdoor and I think it's close to ready. Trichomes are getting cloudy. It's Sept 17th so it seems a bit early, but... I was hoping I'd get some naked eye clues, like the pistols turning purple as I was told this strain does, but nothing like that yet. Apparently...

Yeah, they look early, but you've got to go on the trichomes as many others here have already said. The naked eye can only tell you so much.

One thing that pushes people to harvest a bit early is when mold starts to enter into the equation. Where I live, moths lay their eggs inside the maturing buds, then the caterpillers or little bud worms if you want to call them that hatch, start eating and pooping in their "nest", the poo...

trichs = trichomes (themz the crystalz, brutha and sista Tammy&Glen) Get a small pocket microscope (at least 35x magnification) and you'll be able to see the trichomes at a clear, cloudy and eventually amber color. You want mostly cloudy to amber. There are some decent posts on it somewhere...

Yeah, you completely go by trichomes? I try to as well though there is a side of me that is worried about taking this already couch-like Indica/Sativa hybrid too long and having it lose that head high quality. I have a decent microscope but I still find it a bit difficult to see a striking...

Here are some shots of the Big Bud XXL I'm growing outdoors. It's been a strange strain for me to grow. I triggered flowering early by manipulating the photolight period to 12/12 at the end of July. According to the pistols below, this girl looks ready to harvest. White pistols are changing...
