Definitely don't think that is enough time to let these girls pack on their full weight. Took until about 3 months (from seed) for one girl to stop putting out new pistils from the individual buds on the two main colas.
Ya I would say 60 days is way to early too. I made a batch of fem seeds a while back and have been growing this exclusively for a while. They sure do throw out those white hairs for a long time. You really need to pull out the scope to determine the harvest time.

How do you like to harvest them lately? Do you harvest them while they are still making hairs?

ALso, with the fem seeds... when you stoppe spraying, did pistils/calyxes form to catch the pollen that was being produced, or were those branches 100% "male"?

try to get everything where you want it before flower
when it stops stretching is when it is in actual flower and the branches will get woody and easier to break then is why its a good reason to stop then :D
looking good brother

Depends on how low the jar is getting. Love to let these go if I can. I don't pay attention to days, but I will on this next run. Yes, I harvest with white hairs still growing. But not many.

What happens is you spray a few selected branches for the 21 days. The pistils on those branches turn brown and eventually make flowers. When those flowers open up, pollen drops. What I did was turn the whole plant to the side and flick the branches dropping pollen onto the other bud sites. Yes the pistils catch the pollen. Then you have a shit load of fem seeds. That's about it.

I didn't do the above. I sprayed everything and think it hurt seed production. I still have a lot of seeds, but think I could have had more. So I guess to answer your question, No, the branches were not 100% male. Suppose you could say the branches selfed themselves.

hey HighLowGrow ill take you up on that offer looked at your thread made me wanna try out tiresias mist with what i have going on outdoors this year

Dream - Just keep in mind.....pollen floats for a long distance. If you have multiple plants, they will most likely all be seeded. Unless that's what you want. :hump:
