Ready for Harvest?

DP! What up, bro?

Didn't our boy go off and start "the grow report" site/podcast???

btw.... anyone have an answer to:

what do you guys think about maybe harvesting individual branches if you think they're ready??? one or two clean cuts for the top/bottom branches (whichever has the most amber gets cut first) and then a little extra time for the others? could it stress the plant enough to halt resin production or would it trick the plant into making MORE gooey-goodness since the plan is "protecting itself?"

Yeah, i've done partial harvests before. I just cut all the tops off my one plant that were 10-20% amber. The middle and bottom buds were still not ready so i let them go a while longer.

I don't know if it's ok to do. Some people think cutting off too many fan leaves is a bad thing. I wonder how they'd feel about cutting all the big buds off at once. All i know is that the smoke from the big buds is good stuff and the buds i left to continue growing are getting more light now and are developing well.

fun times.

Can anyone explain why my BOTTOM buds have more "degraded" (orange) hairs and more cloudy trichs than the top? The top buds are of course much larger, but all the hairs are still white and the buds are still swelling like crazy. The bottom ones are still growing as well, but this doesn't seem right...

Just thought about it... could it be that the bottom ones are receiving more side lighting (2700 k CFLs) than HID (running a 400 HPS)? I hate feeling stupid.....

sorry if I have hijacked this thread.... I'll burn one with ya if we ever meet at a rally :jointsmile::jointsmile:
