OMG DP... that frog with lily pad lock made me laugh for a long time! Thank you for that!

And congratulations on a successful grow sum1cull911! Those look so tasty! Here I would imagine is the hardest part of the grow... waiting till that exact moment and not getting too anxious. It is indeed going to be a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year at your house!

You say your using the GH bloom series, not sure if you are including both liquid and dry of Koolbloom. If not get it for your next run and you wont be sorry for using it :thumbsup:
The pics are from halfway through week 4 of flower, I ran liquid for first 3 weeks then dry for next 5 weeks and plain water for the last 2. Best I have seen yet and growing same stuff for 2 years now.

Hey DP nice avatar :jointsmile:

Tiny! I love seeing your tomato cages everytime you post pics ha

did you actually need them this grow? Cause it looks like they're all standing up real strong

Just started week 5 so they wont be really needed for a couple weeks when the weight gets put on.

So everyone is in agreement, a few more weeks?

That looks like it is going to be tasty. I would say at least 10 days, maybe more, you'll have to keep checking. :smokin:

Some updated photos.... I don't know if it matters, but the photos uploaded the other day are from the bottomish area of the plant. The top ones are still mostly white pistols.

tinytoon

12-20-2010, 10:53 PM

10 days looks and sounds about right

sum1cull911

12-20-2010, 11:13 PM

These photos are from the top of the plant. Should I harvest from the bottom up, until the tops are more ripe?

I would say you have at least 2-3 weeks left before you should even think about harvesting, your plant hasnt even filled out yet.

2-3 weeks?!!? Damn, you just ~kiboshed~ my happiness. It's all good though, as long as the ladies get the job done when it comes time to toke.

Did you harvest yet? By now I would assume you have. How did things turn out for you? :)

Unfortunately no harvest yet.... I had a PH problem that was caught late because my ph pen broke and I was waiting for a new one that never showed up. Ended up taking a trip to the local hydro shop and picking a new one up. It's a good thing that I did, bc the PH was wayy up there. So I got set back a few days. Looking to harvest mid January. Very exciting though.

dont chop too early or the buzz wont work right. I dont think I let me trics cure long enough on my last grow. I never did find an amber tric anywhere and as a result all the shit does is give me a headache half the time. Let it do its thang.

Aw, that's too bad. Maybe you should turn it into edibles? Much less risk of getting a headache. When a grow wasn't flushed enough many years ago when I was using MG, I would get a slight headache from the smoke. I learned from my mistake and when I made some tasty butter and a batch of brownies I was a happy camper without any ill effects! :smokin:

Another popcorn bud test. Trichomes look more cloudy than the last test. I'll try it in 3 or 4 days when it's dry. How do the trichomes look?

No better way to celebrate your harvest then with a new piece. :jointsmile:This is available to use for every harvest!!! In the Native American Culture, the mineral inclusions, stars, are considered lucky. Not every piece has one or more. Bring luck to your harvest!!! :rasta: shop.redstonepipes.com

They are looking so pretty. I can't wait to hear your report once you have hacked, dried and cured.

Those trichs are very defined. Did you take the pictures with a magnifying glass or a macro setting on your camera? I can never seem to get that close for the shot to be worthwhile to post.

Will do!
Just hold the magnifying glass right up next to the lens of the camera and that's it! I can get pretty freakin close with it. But the closer I get, the harder it is to steady the camera. Those close up pics of the trich's would be nicer if I could hold the camera still!

Alright, last time we spoke everyone was in agreement that I had 10-20 days until harvest. That was December 20th, and it's now January 12th. First harvest, and don't wannt chop too early (or too late), so I'd like as many opinions as possible. I'm all ears! I've uploaded some decent trichome pics too.
