Lowryder #2 almost ready for harvest.

First grow using minimum light unfortanetly but all i can do right now. im at about day 65 into the grow but because of the lights process is taking a little longer. but she is close i think to harvest the top is anyways bottom still has alot of white. im posting some pics of her now gimme some comments and suggestions, it has been a completely organic grow! used small cfl light bulbs 2 for veg and then got a 3rd for flowering.

3cfls? Lol only 2 for veg...? Good job then. I have 14 on 2 plants

looks good. still needs a few more weeks at least to ripen though

A few weeks you think. I thought a week tops! the main cola is about 50 percent amber but the bottom of the plant is still white im thinkin i can cut the top soon and leave the bottom to finish???

Yea man lol its a bare minimum grow best i could do for the first time but i think it has turned out pretty good for what i used. used household lamps pretty much for the entire grow i think i will get a minimum quarter from the harvest .i used 24hr lighting. blue spec for veg and red for flowering. purely organic grow also i thought my buds were gunna be smaller because of the weak lighting but im surprised how big they are turning out to be.

Latest pics of my plant and a pic of the setup i have been using to grow this baby!! im pretty impressed for what i have got and used i notice my plant is taller and lankier than most lowryders but i know its because of the weak lights and the plant stretching buti kept the light as close as possible for most the grow cant wait to cut it down and try the bud out! all organic so its gunna taste sweet as fuck!!!

What was the yield?

you shouldn't harvest based on trichomes. that is a preferential measure after judging the plant based on visual ripeness

this is ripe fruit



notice receded, almost completely orange pistils, and the general hue

yea she looks nice!!!!! i havnt harvested it yet here are some new pics o havnt got a fuckin magnify glass yet i need i know!!! but the main cola is starting to look real buff! i used weak lighting for this but kept it on for 24hr lighting. i noticed some leaves dont go yellow on lowryders im also thinking because of the lighting my buds wont be the biggest they could be! the top of the plant looks about a week ahead of the bottom 2 sections of the plants

not sure yet looks about minimum a quarter dry from what i can see. alot more buds then i thought would come out of this and bigger then i thought.

looks quite a bit better already. almost ready for sure.

Idk if it's the lighting or what, but it looks better in just a day.

yea im thinking it is pretty close now however the bottom of the plant is still premature...can i just cut the top right off and leave the middle and bottom still going?

nice job on the girls yo! have you pulled em' yet??

oh yeah, I've chopped the top cola off and dropped lights down to let lower sites to develop you just can't let them go too long, a week tops I'd say.
