Grow Closet Help

Push, CanGrowIt....

Any advice/tips on harvesting top to bottom as the colitas mature? My question is this........ Has anyone out there in the culture experimented clipping flowers as they mature at the top then working your way down as the remaining colitas mature at a later date?


:abduct:

Ive only done it a couple times. I usually just chop the whole plant. When i did do it i just took a small leave from each bud and looked at it under the microscope. If it was the way i liked i chopped that bud off. I usually cut mine at around 10% amber. Thats just how i did it so i couldnt tell you if it was the "Proper" way of doing things.

This is called a double harvest.... A really great way to get two different effects from the same plant(s)....

The best way I have found to achieve this is by harvesting all the apical buds when they are 50% clear and 50% cloudy.... Then lower the lamps and let the lower buds catch more light until the trichs reach 50% cloudy - 50% amber.... (see pics, I helped someone else with this a couple months ago....)

You can keep three bags.... Daytime(first harvest), Night(second harvest) and Surprise :D.... Break down all the buds to the same size in the surprise bag so it truly will be a surprise :jointsmile:....

Hope this helps....

Thanx Bro..... Really..... Some are looking ripe for the pick'n & some can wait cuz the growth is still on the up swing. Individual colitas are forming into one big azz cola!

I love it when that happens :jointsmile:.... Just keep an eye on your humidity late in flower....especially if you have large colas....

Wanted to do it today but the lights went out. I admire ur alternative view (Pushit & Smokemypiece as well) & also that you haven't bum rushed criticized my newbie azz. Can't believe all of the hate out there. I showed a few pics on the "Rollitup" board & took crap for cutting off the fan leaves. Why some people act like sheeple puzzles me?

[Esteban1]

Think'n bout taking 'em down today? One plant in particular is ready but I'm so frigg'n attached to 'em that I feel as though I'm killing them!!!

Completed "Phase 1" of a "Double Harvest" Cured & bottled approx. 1 oz? Who knows cuz I ain't sell'n it. But here is the final product ready to rock for the coming months. Guessing I have another 2-3 1 liter Ball jars.280424

Guys:

Another question. This "Double Banger" Harvest is just that. Not complaining but how much longer is this one girl gonna go for cuz I wanna start another grow? In the meantime grabbed another 2 1 liter "Ball" containers. Figured since you guys get wood from good mj, I would post another pic or 3. This Widow strain is so, so resinous that it's gumming up the grinder. Don't know if this is a complaint.

Took down my little "Double Harvest" experiment. Noticing that the aroma emanating from the grow room was diminishing prompting me to end this widow batch. Ready for a new grow.... Took down some nice colas & its been an interesting ride. Probably another 20 grams. Moving on......
