Another are they ready

I think these 3 plants are ready to be pulled. What do you think. Cloudy trichs and amber trichs. Blue Dream X2 and Pandora's Box

No way are theydone.. What week are u on?

What kind and intensity of lighting are you using? if you have been going for 8-10 weeks with no lock out problems and the trichs look ready.. id say flush them if it hasnt already been done, then stick em in the dark for 3 days and chop em. youll be real happy with the results. let us know how they turn out dry! happy tokin

Started flower on 12-24-12 so on day 62 today and these are 50-55 day flowering strains, second time growing these and they finished at about this time. If you are thinking they are not done due to size these are not top buds, can get pics of them due to space and training, these are 2nd and 3rd nodes down grown under HO T5 and CFLs. I have a Banana Kush and Agent Orange that still need a few weeks yet not cloudy trichs and still have hairs that have not gone red/brown and receded yet. Also have 3 NYD that have a week or 2 but the ones in the pics look to right there to me. Last harvest turned out bomb but really small yield, this one is much better as far as yield and looks to be even better quality.
Here are the same pics but larger.



And some of the tops buds taken about a week or so about before I dent them to lower the lights.

Ya man the color and resin looks good. i think youll be real happy with this second harvest if your first time was successful as well. you wont really get that donkey dick density and heavy yield weight until you upgrade to flowering with HPS. Keep up the good work man.

Thanks I think I will pull then either today or in the next few days. With some help from a friend of mine and some changes to the closet and lighting I hope to pull 1-1.5 oz per plant from the next grow and from then on still using all florescents. Im In Az as well.

And some more pics, plants moved outside so lighting is different but still the same 2 Blue Dream and 1 Pandora. These are pics of the top buds and the whole plant.






This is the one NYD that I think is nearly ready as well and I may pull it with the other 3. Thoughts??

They look close but; i'd still give them another week or so. Those calyx's are just starting to swell. Remember breeder times are based on perfect growing conditions. I always go a week or two over breeder times.

Really they are starting week 10 of flower tomorrow, these should be done and they look done been swelling for the last 2 weeks and have slowed this week.

Check trichs. It looks like alot of the hairs haven't receeded yet. Personal choice I guess. I grow a kush strain that the breeder says 55-63 days to finish. MIne are never done until day 70 at least.

2 more weeks imo

Why are your plants so lanky and skinny?

Stretch from having my T5s too far away in veg and I trimmed the crap out of them before 12/12, they where a lot more bushy and filled in but that was blocking light.

Oh damn. That would explain the popcorns too. But the bud looks nice I cant imagine how it would have looked in solid colas. Good grow, man.

looks done to me

Thanks. Blue Dream is known for popcorn buds as it is. They are in dark now and will be pulled later today or tonight for drying.

Just when you think they are done, give um anouther week or 2 even and youll be much happier...Trust me

Leaves don't block light they absorb it! Go easier on the trim next time if you think its necessary to do

A big hps will do wonders for the ladies.Here's my Critical Jack after 78 days from 12/12. That was a few days ago. Today may be the big day. This is what my 1000hps, fox farm nutes and ball soil did for a beginner. BTW, that top is almost the length of a 5 gallon bucket and was as big as my forearm before the hairs receded.

If I could do HPS I would, heat and venting is the issue.
