I hope its buds can finish out before too much foliage yellows. I'm very excited for my first trim! I'm very impatient so drying and curing is gonna be a challenge .

Trust me I've been there I know it's a MF waiting for some bud after all this hard work you put into it I had to go and get me some weed from my local dealer cause I was fiending like a motherfucker. But it was worth the wait knowing I had good shit waiting for me at home, my first blunt was a nice Gotti. Good blazing, spark one up for me homie.

Im agreeing with at least another 2 weeks for sure but i think prob somewhere in the 3-4 range. I wouldnt cut back nutes or do any flushing yet. Those hairs are still stretching dont starve those swelling buds

The strain of WW i grow goes between 63 and 70 days from flip, I learned they need low dose cal/mag right from veg. The leaf yellowing is actually perfect, dont fight that. If you give N to combat the yellowing she will shoot white pistils. In a limited space I would keep veg to 3 weeks or so, that keeps them manageable
From the pics ive seen you are on track, couple weeks out.

This is my WW from Nirvana I get mine from a seed bank ( single seed center) I can just buy 1 seed of any strain instead of getting a pack of seeds of a strain I don't like and your stuck with it.

My seed sprouted 1-10-16, I flipped on 3-10-16 to some that's 2 weeks of seedling and 6 weeks of veg anyhow tomorrow marks 30 days from flip, she stretched quite a bit but stopped as of Tuesday and now she sits at 43" tall.

I did mine in grow bags from Walmart, organic grow no nutes.

Don't go by the dates seed sellers tell you, you can't replicate the conditions they base their time on. It's best to put a scope on it to get an idea of When you should harvest.

Well the plant yellowing is WW2 in the back left corner. The big plant which is most of the buds you see still hasn't yellowed much. A bit on some tips but more leaf purpling than anything else. That is why I think the yellowing is from the 1gal pot. vs the 3gal pot the big one is in. I'd really like to start harvesting the big buds at least by April 20th. Does this look possible?

You're worrying yourself to death dude, yellowing at this stage in a plants life is natural it could be genetics but I've never heard pot size being the reason, just because pot sizes are different doesn't mean that's most likely the issue, it could be soil amendment being richer in 1 pot over another. Once you get several grows under your belt you'll become more patient with yellowing leaves and realize that's the natural course of action and worry when they don't turn yellow.

You've done great so far don't go trying to fix something that's not broken ok. Concentrate on what you'll be needing to do next.


The plants will tell you when they're ready, not a minute before. It may be ready on your target date and maybe not at this point the plant is the boss!

So I should give my plants another feeding of Overdrive before cutting it off?

Day 65 (midweek 10)Flower Update. Scrog net taken out along with WW2 to give room and more light exposure for the clone and WW1. Gave WW1 it's feeding of Overdrive. It will probably be the last nute feeding for it. How are they lookin? I can see some amber trichomes glimmer in the camera on a couple of shots. Will try to get a close up trichome pic or two soon.

Great pics!

Almost 3 full days of hanging buds to dry. I have clipped the long fan leaves to expose buds to a bit more airflow. Weigh in after clipping fan leaves is 179.54 grams. I'm not sure how much more weight it will lose but it has got to lose another 50% of current weight right? Anyways hope you enjoy the pics. Will update in a few days .

Did you ever get a final dry weight?

62 grams from the big plant! Half an ounce roughly from the smaller plant.
