I Think It's Time to Harvest

very beautiful daughters you got there!!

Nice Plants!

Like previous poster said, finallly someone did some homework. Congrats on pulling through the tough times and getting to the best part! +rep

Thanks.

So I haven't harvested yet. I'm going to do it on Saturday, so I can be home the following week for the first two days of curing. Curing is probably my biggest concern now, since I work long days away from my place and won't be able to burp it as often as I probably should. I checked the trichs a little bit ago and there are only a few ambers around, so I'm not too concerned about being overripe if I wait. I read a lot of suggestions about harvesting before amber, but I guess I'm not doing that, lol - but I think this is still the safer move in the long run.

put a silica packet in the jars it will absorb the moister or burp for 10 min everyday

Looks like you have a natural "green thumb" man....For a first grow with no hid llighting this is damn impressive....

You a believer in that? Ive read a ton of the info about the dark period, but curious if it really does anything?

yep the dark period works, majority of resin production happens in the dark so a 24 hour dark period causes a final "burst" of resin to accumulate. its easier to produce and cover themselves with while they dont have a hot light drying them out so definatly give it a try

Just got done harvesting and figured I'd throw up some pictures. I'm going to manicure them before I put them in jars.

What was your total weight?

I stopped calculating since these real long stems didn't properly fit on the scale. When I cut them down in a week, I'll weigh again.

But based on the images and those few weighed buds, does anyone have a guess as to what kind of yield I'm looking at?

+rep again! looks great!

They look very good man you sure did something right that's for sure.

Thanks - hopefully my notes on this grow will help me do the same right things.

I planted a new one a few weeks ago - blue mystic from Nirvana - and it's already taller than these plants were at that age,-- I think it's roughly 3 weeks ahead of my first round of plants already! I think the plan genetics are helping a lot!

Nice!!!!!....I'd day you got pretty lucky with that bag seed What other lights are u using besides the cfl's?

I was also using 4 2-foot T4 fluro tubes
