Opie Yutts I need your help friend

I don't see how it can be, but that looks like nute burn to me. It is normal for leaves to die and fall off toward the end of flowering, but it's also normal for them to turn yellow first. Doesn't look like yours are doing that. I forget, were you doing a final flush? If not, maybe you should just consider letting them suck water and flushing agent for a week or a few days. If it's nute burn they have more than enough nutrients to last a few days.

Yes, cut em off and hang em up side down. Or lay them on a screen, or a piece of paper or anything that will allow air to circulate around them. If on a piece of paper or something hard, that's not a problem, just turn them once a day. It's a wives tail about hanging them upside down makes THC flow into the buds. Try to keep them cool and dark, since heat and light degrade THC. 5-7 days, or 6 years for that big bud. Looks darn tasty.

Yes you can harvest the top half and leave the rest to ripen. This is actually preferred in my book, it's just a hassle so its not done a lot. There are people who do perpetual harvests. That is they never stop flowering. It was more common about 35 years ago.

It may be hard for you to do a partial harvest because the plant is at different nutrient stages. In otherwords, if you harvested a portion now before flushing and the rest after flushing you are going to get two different weeds. Potency and flavor.

Sometimes though, you flush and your lower bud sites are sucking the energy and are ripe and the top cola is not getting enough and taking forever to ripen. At this point, you can harvest the lower sites and let the top catch up and then harvest it.

But they are both being flushed, not prior.

Actually, I did flush for a full 7 days ppm were 50 when I cut her. I harvested 51 days which put me in the window of the suggested harvest from my research. I yielded almost 2 oz thats weigh in after a week of hanging. I am sure I will lose a little more. I have the buds in air tight jars right now.

The buds are caked with shiny trichs and orange hairs. The smoke is really great. Very uppedy up high and the weed taste like that classic hydro taste. Overall I am satisfied. She went through hell. First off didnt get a good root zone from start and then I had a power outage and left her in the cold and dark for 6 days but she pulled through. I am glad I didnt kill her. The Jack Herer strain is a resealiant strain but very sensitive until you get er dialed in. I reccommend jack herer to any grower.

Much thanks to ope for your selfless giving of time and info. I will take it into my next grow which will be sweet afgan delicious or Sweet thai not sure which one I want to go with. However, it will be a little while. I just grow for my own personal and I am not a huge toker so my yield should last me a good few months. Honestly, I think I like growing it more than smoking it. Its such an amazing plant watching it through its phases. Absolutely incredible.

Peace Fellas and happy tokin :stoned:

Great news Godbud!! :thumbsup:

I was wondering on aeroponics when you switch to 18/6 do you run your water then or shut it down for the six hours, plus I have a 15 minute timer what is the best to run it at so far I have it 30min on and 30 off. Thank You

You have to keep your misters on 24/7 otherwise your plants will dry up because there is no medium buffering the roots from drying out.

Way to bring a year old post back to life haha:rasta:

Thanks for the info it is very hard trying to find out light situation and pump on aeroponics I also know it is trial and error, but just getting the basic info on that, then tweaking it as you go. But getting the basics is a good start. Glad to bring the old post back, will have pics and more updates later been doing soil for a couple years now, then went to ebb for a month then switched it all over to aeroponics, all is looking very good.
