for all you clever people - yes they are different strains - i have 1 bubblegum 1 northern lights and 3 white widow
For your first grow I have to say you did damn well. How much did you yield altogether? :D
very nice selection for your first grow, you have excellent taste :)
You will be happy with the fruits of your labor, nice grow, just play with your camera a bit man
thanx my ego is growing by the minute, haven't finished yet am about 6 weeks in now, will try and get some more pics tomorrow and post - just getting panicky - things never seem to go right for me and needed reasuring , so thanx guys- have been busy reading abuot trichomes cos i don't want to blow it now - have tried to keep things as simple as possible (less for me to mess up) but feel i'm getting close now so worrying like maddon't want to harvest too soon and don't want to leave it too late lol - also wondering whether to take of the top colas when i think they're ready to give the lower smaller ones a chance to grow more or should i just chop the whole plant.
I'd take the whole plant, if not, you will over ripen the bottom buds, some people I know let the bottom one's grow out more, but IMO the quality isn't as good. Good grow btw, nice job.
i usally trim the lower branches that would become popcorn buds so that all energy is put into the colas, but in the past i have harvested the top and let the bottom ones ripen a week or so
good luck man
thanx.. thats what i thought .... BUT i was thinking if i keep the first (tops)for me was going to spread the rest arround family and friends so kinda trying to weigh up whether the drop in quality would balance out with the increased (?) yield. how much does over rippening affect things - i mean would they still be worth smoking or would they be a waste. i'm kinda figuring he first cuts would be enough for me til my next grow is ready and the rest would still be good enough to give away
see i thought about that but was afraid if i trimmed them i might stress the plants. Once the colas are ready and i've got the best off , i'm kinda less worried about that cos if it goes tits up then i'm alright jack lol (ok that sounds selfish but .....)Quote:
