I am in dyer need to figure this out, not to mention im color blind! :( So the whole amber, clear, milky white.... Not working. I have everything documented and right now im in the 9th week of flowering starting monday. Now ive been told many different things about when its ready for harvesting. About 12 weeks is correct? If more pictures are needed let me know. I will HIGHLY appriciate any help or knowledge on the subject. Thanks alot!
Thy're not ready yet. I would say at 12 weeks they should be about ready.
Yeah, at LEAST another 3 weeks. What kind of effect are you looking for: Cerebral/energetic high or couchlock stone?
It will start getting really big the last 2 weeks or so. Right now, all your hairs are white, and it's not very bushy yet (although it looks healthy and happy...nice job :thumbsup:). She still needs time to fatten up and mature.
i'm thinking trying a stoner, stuck with the muchie high. What do you think? I also have a little low rider. Maybe I'll try experimenting with the two. I'll post a few pics of the little ladie. Any advice on how to plump her up? Thanks for the reply. I really been going crazy trying to see the colors of the trichs ( being color blind doesn't help )
The longer you wait, the more couchlock/stoned effect you'll get (because the THC converts to CBN). And the munchies are also associated CBN more than THC.Quote:

Also, if you have a camera that can take macros, take some pics of the trichs up close and post them. We can tell you the trich color ratio :)
She looks great. Good job so far. I agree with the above posts...
Just keep doing what youre doing and be patient!
Goodluck.
I'm having some serious issues right now, I'm actually very upset about this. My leave are curling at the ends, turning black at the tips, and I seem to have found a good amount of fungas gnats. Also a good amount of mould on the lower buds. Being so near the end of harvest I'm feeling very helpless, I'm pretty down in the dumps about this, she's my baby! Please help guys, I'll get some pictures up soon.
lower te humitty in you grow duh
You know what?! there is no need for the sarcasim. Obviously lower humidity. That's not going to get rid of mould already grown. the gnats? Not that simple.. So unless your trying to help because you're a good person, then thank you. But if you want to act like a know it all take you're comments somewhere else. The humidity is the obvious answer. How do I get rid of the mould already there..?
Personally I'm new to this too, Haven't even started a grow yet.
However, I was talking to an older gent at my local dog park about a week ago. I can't remember exactly what caused it to come up, but he was telling me about a grow from many years ago. He said he had a mold issue (might have been during curing, not sure) He said he misted the buds with Everclear and the mold just shrivled up and died. I guess this could be an issue on a living plant, but I'd think some dry air and direct sun light would likely wipe out most molds. Followed by a good cleaning.
As for small flies. I had terrible fruit flies in my neighborhood this summer, No clue why. However I found a great method for controlling the population in my house...
Take a bowl, and a piece of fruit. Cut a semi large piece of fruit and place it in the bowl (I used a peach). Either use plastic wrap or a clear plastic bag to seal the fruit in the bowl. Then cut or poke a small hole in the plastic and place it where the flies are. Over a few hours the flies will find the bowl and the hole and go in to get at the fruit piece. Then go in put your finger over the hole and take the bowl outside and release the flies. Repeat as needed. After a while the fruit will dry up or mold and need replacing.
When I did this, the little suckers were flying all around me. After a few hours I'd caught over 100 flies. After 2 days I didn't see any except in the bowl.
Hope this helps.
Sorry, I just discovered something on fungus gnats. The have a larval stage where they will be a black spot on your roots. there are a few fixes to kill them at this stage as well. You'll need to look into that because like I said, I'm new to this as well.
I would think about cutting her down and starting over. Next time grow more than one plant. A 12 week flower cycle is really long. You should get some seeds that have a 8 -9 week flower cycle. You will be unable to save your plant or increase its potency and/or harvest weight with this many problems so late in the game. Sorry.
I must agree, I've been reading so many differnt things about mould and gnats. Mostly this late either cut the parts with mould out and clean best as possible. As for the gnats, I have gotten them under control with sand box sand. Smuther then out, the adults can't reach the soil to lay more eggs. But, the larva is already eating the roots. I forget the life cycle but they are doing serious harm. Leafs are curling, turning black at tips. Leafs falling off left and right. It's sad, but your right. Time to chop her down. Between all the problems and the issues. The growth will be stunted and that's one set back to many. R.I.P ( rest in pieces ) any ideas for a safe site for seeds, that you have expirence with. Thanks for everything guys, sucks though..
Hey man, don't get too down. Everyone has to learn how to successfully grow. Recreating nature isn't easy; you should be happy that you got it through so many weeks of flowering. It took me 3 tries before I was able to actually harvest anything, lol! All it means is that you try it again.
If the entire cola isn't covered with mold, I would see if you can surgically remove it (but only if you think you can get it ALL). Then dry and cure it like normal (constantly check for mold). I doubt it's a total loss; maybe make some cannabutter with it or something, using half the amount of butter.
Hakuna Matata, friend!
AGREE! time and patience is what you need i went more than ten times trying to grow ..finally after trial and error i was ale to get a significant harvest ...as for if its ready no it isnt ready for harvest she still has lots more of thc to develop .and the mold i only had it once and it was on the one that gave me the harvest i was able to razor blade it off and everything was good.. try that maybe will workQuote:

Neem oil, cedar oil (go gnats) and AzaMax are all effective at getting rid of gnats. I have used all three in watering and the neem and AzaMax will kill the larva.. At this point Neem oil and AzaMax would both do wonders. I like AzaMaz because I don't need to use dish soap or other products Like I do with the neem oil to get it to mix with water. I think I'd use neem oil in flower because I don't know how AzaMax will affect the finished bud. If you do add neem or anything else CHECK the ph before watering and adjust it. I've screwed myself by not checking.
Looked up more info on AzaMax. It's neem oil based and should be safe for plants in flower. Talked to a few friends too and they have had no problems while using during flower. Good luck with everything.
