high playing with camera + some questions

[hanayama]

smoked a big ol bowl and took some pics
and i have a few questions if anyone has some advice...much appreciated.
1) i know you need to stop using ferts a couple weeks before harvest...does this include molasses??

2) also do i want to trim any leaves in the last couple days of flowering? ive seen it done...any thoughts?

3) are the different colas going to mature at different times?
if yes, should i harvest them at different times(a day or two apart maybe.) worth the trouble? or just harvest when a majority are ready?

1) I believe you stop using Molasses at week 6 of flowering last I remembered.

2) Waste of time.

3) Your choice but a day or two will not matter in the end.

I use molasses right up until the end, even after I've stopped with the nutrients, and just make sure to flush heavily in the last week. Even when using it in the last week, I've never found it to impart any bad taste to the buds.

A lot of growers cut away some of the lower growth near the end to allow space for airflow... probably out of fear of the dreaded bud-rot. It's not mandatory, obviously, and I doubt that it makes much difference on buds that are three feet away from the bottom. I only remove remove dead foliage from the bottom, but that's just me.

And it's pretty common for top colas to mature a little quicker than areas that aren't receiving as much light. Some plants will pretty much mature entirely all at once, and some are a little slower. My last harvest saw plants of the exact same strain do this, and one of them actually took an extra two weeks to mature after the others had already been cut down. Probably just a slightly less vigorous female. But I rarely harvest all at once, as there always seems to be a straggler in the midst that just never caught up to the rest of them.

Enjoy them when the time does come! :jointsmile:

i plan on saving some for you flyguy..so dont be skerred, itll be in a jar waiting for you

Mr. Clandestine
what is your flushing schedule in the last few weeks?

[Mr. Clandestine]

Mr. Clandestine
what is your flushing schedule in the last few weeks?

When I'm pretty sure I'm about two or three weeks from harvest, I'll flush heavily once per week with plain water, then feed with just molasses/water in between the flushes. I also add a good bit of organic goodies to my soil when I'm flowering, so you may not need to do it once a week. I'd rather be safe, I can't stand that sharp taste of buds that weren't flushed well before the chop.

[hanayama]

ok, thanks!

[Mr. Clandestine]

My pleasure, friend. Enjoy your harvest! :jointsmile:
