[iblodro4220]

is it cool to clip a little test nug off this is my first grow and its going great!!!:thumbsup:

[4gan2ja0]

well if youre in the flowering stage you could, it wouldnt be horrible for the plant, but it isnt really good to do either... not that itll fuck up your grow or anything

[iblodro4220]

how would i pick a nug off a plant that was not flowering?!?!

[4gan2ja0]

well you cant

[iblodro4220]

[4gan2ja0]

is it in the 12/12 stage yet?

[iblodro4220]

yes since june 20th

[iblodro4220]

how much longer is left???

[4gan2ja0]

if its only been in flowering 3 weeks, keep it flowering a bit longer. it looks like its coming around nicely, you should ab able to sample some

[iblodro4220]

i dont have anything to look at the trichs with so im not sure how to tell when its ready

[iblodro4220]

This thread is ridiculous.
ganja420, you're giving no helpful advice...
Fucking up the grow? It very well could... yanking buds prematurely=stress = possible cause of herms. Not smart.
your question of whether it is in 12/12 yet shows your ignorance. It has full bud set... OBVIOUSLY it's in 12/12.
3 weeks in does not equal "a bit longer" to harvest. Most strains run a full 2 months.
Taking nugs off now is stupid. They are NOWHERE near ripe, all you are going to taset is chlorophyll, and resin production hasn't peaked. Plus that little hug you take off now would have been a big nug later.
What is up with all the kids handing out bad growing advice lately? DAMN I can't wait for school to start again.

:S2: ... when I saw this thread last night, I shut off the computer, and worried about the future of the World ... truly :(

[iblodro4220]

Fine. Leave them alone. And don't call Reaper names. F'real.

[iblodro4220]

dummy is a nice joking name no hard feelings im sorry...:thumbsup:

[iblodro4220]

anything to worry about with the curling leafs or no i think it may be root bound

[stinkyattic]

Quite likely, if you have more than a foot of main stem for each foot of soil, you need to repot into something bigger. Let the soil dry out pretty well first, and the root ball will slide right out.

[iblodro4220]

so its ok to repot in flowerin i hear it wansnt thats why i havent....so you think another month at least

[the image reaper]

thanks Stinky :) ... it's OK, I can handle 'dummy' just fine, been called worse ... and, he's right, anyway ... this thread is new today ... there is an almost identical thread posted last night, asking the same question, and the responses were getting pretty 'dumb' ... it's OK for me to say they were 'dumb', 'cause I'm a 'dummy', I'd know ... :D

[stinkyattic]

Dro, wait until the hairs are turning brown faster than they are being replaced with fresh white ones, like 90% brown, and then start looking at trichs with a magnifyer.
If you don't have one, squint. hahahaha just kidding.
The plant will have a sparkly look to it when the trichs are still clear. Go see how it appears now. It should sparkle a little in bright light. When it looks more misty/frosty there's your trichs going milky. Your harvest window will start soon after you notice that. But you really need a magnifyer to nail it down.

[iblodro4220]

lol like i said no harm meant......i cant believe the kid asked me if i was in the flowerin stage yet when i asked if i could pick a nug.....so yall think this is ok for my 1st grow?....ive got em under a 250 watt hps also one is too tall and the top is above the light will it be ok like that i cant put it any higher

[iblodro4220]

i have a mag that 10 or 20 x prolly 10 will that work? i live in the middle of no where so radio shack is a trip.....yea i see what you mean they are sparkly

[stinkyattic]

20x is better than your eyesight. Honestly I don't have a 30x scope either, I go by the misty hazy frosty look and have like a 15x magnifyer to check it out better.

[iblodro4220]

right on i think i can wing it...i have been this whole time....also i cane across a seed will it be isolated or will it spread its on my best one....

[stone_sensation]

I have found a few seeds too. waiting for the answer to your question, I am 7 weeks in and smaller buds than yours. Damn those light leaks :(.

I also can't get a microscope, gonna harvest on the 1st-3rd of august hopefully!

[iblodro4220]

i just found another but i dont think its goin to mess the plants up im hopin it will be isolated to a few are you using hps or cfls?

[stinkyattic]

Seeds don't spread.
1 pollen grain=1 seed.
Remove pollen source (and CLEAN growroom) =no more seeds.
Why does everyone get so worried about a couple seeds? Be more worried about the SOURCE of those seeds, the Dreaded Herm.
