8 & 1/2 weeks in flower - STILL CLEAR???

[dankstylee]

Wow, looking awesome man.

I say, nine weeks. Cut Em'

Yes the trichs will be a very light amber but like you said you don't want to be talking and walking impaired. I'm sure with those fine beauties you'll be on cloud 9 all day...

Cheers mate - yeah i was like mega stoned (but laughing and aware of stuff but spaced out) and to me it was without doubt 'THE PERFECT STONE' so i aint cut any since last nites (which was cut 5 days ago) should i run upstairs right now and chop a bit off to get same kinda stone or wont the stone change until i see ambers EVERYWHERE???

aND HERES A FEW MORE JUST TAKEN pics..
(i have to agree - im DEFINATELY NOT BOASTING, she looks stunning, im just lucky i guess especially with being a first time grower)

It difficult to figure out exactly what kind of high you're looking for. As soon as the first amber trichs appear, your 2-week harvest window is open. The longer you let it go, the more couch-lock the high will be. If you want to feel heavy as a house and melt into the couch for hours, 50-60% amber trichs would be good. If you want to be mobile during your high, I wouldn't go more than 20% amber.

But....if you think your stone last night was "perfect," why are you contemplating waiting?

[themasta09]

AGREED psycho but this is the reason--
-
The only reason I havent harvesting is cos I think she might get bigger??
If i leave her will the buds continue to grow even though all the leaves are starting to die???

[psychodelic]

What are you going for? Quantity or quality? If quality is important, you said it's perfect, I'd harvest now. If you leave it, it will of course get bigger, but your quality of high is also changing.

You have a great bud there, and IMO the extra 2 grams you'll get by waiting another few days won't be work the degradation of the THC. But it's up to you. :thumbsup:

[themasta09]

Hi mate, well a bit of both.
I mean i have waited longer than i was going to just so she gets bigger,
but im wondering just how much bigger she could get?
Like would it be where i go wow! or no real noticable difference?

Yeah the high im aftwer is what i got now:
Laughing,
tlking bollox,
staring into sppace
things in slow motion,
big grin on ma face,
but also very relaxed..

Thats about right for me -- and i dont see more than a few amber here and there.

Sounds like you got yourself a winner :stoned:

For a single plant grow, you look like you got a really great yield. Hope you have fun with your harvest!! :rastasmoke:

Cheers mate thanks for the comment, and i will...:jointsmile:

WOW! Nice. Looks like you done a great job there.
Great thread guy's. I started my first indoor grow (Haze) in August and this has been a tremendous help to me.
I just started 12/12 on some 20+" plants and I'm hoping in about 8.5 weeks I have as good a harvest as themasta09 did.

I want to get this right since I prefer a head high myself.:thumbsup:

[themasta09]

Hi thanks for the comment.

Im sorta wanting a bit of all kinds of stones,
I WANt 'happy/funny/spacey/heavy/hyper/chilled/randomness' so to get that much variety the only way to be sure was to cut the plant bit by bit,
Although this could stress a plant once she starts to yellow it dont make too much difference anyway.

I last nite smoked some which was 6 days old, and it was again a perfect high, the next batch was cut 3 days ago (may not quite be dry) hopefully this stuff will last me a good few days,
Then i have a full branch i cut last nite and i want this to dry properly, and this stuff will have to get me to at least another 2/3 weeks as the next colas im taking i want to dry 100% spot on, and cure, cos thats the 'cream' of the crop, and the main colas will be around 30-60% amber so it will e a very nice strong smoke.

I have taken some photo today and can see more amber so shes defo ready, i may even cut light from midnight tonite and chop the rest thursday so she get 36 hours darkness to finish and ripen..(i heard full darkness then cut helps plant to finish?)
