Advice Needed - First Try at growing pot

[GaGrown]

If you will look closely at the bud or pic you will see little round like balls on top of eachother,those are pollen sacs. It was harvested before it had time to open and spread. Pretty sure thats what they are..

I may be trippin',too :stoned:! My eye-sight ain't what it used to be.

This might help you out. Female and male side by side with arrows and tags. (And the male in this pic looks a lot like that one plant you have in your last pic that is dried out, unless it's a he/she hermie.)

If you are really interested in learning more you can click on the links in my signature below. Both have their merits and you can sit back, relax and watch videos. Then you can read up more here. Once you know the basics of it you will understand more and be able to make much better gardening decisions. That second link is for a High Times production that you might find very informative, as well as that first link with Mr. Green - the guy is a blast to watch when your buzzed IMHO. :rastasmoke: Mr. Green's is from 1999, so some stuff is outdated or been upgraded but the bottom line is his ways still grow Grade A nuggets.

The only stupid questions are the ones that goes unanswered. Do not apologize for not knowing but keep learning as much as you can. This website has so much information just waiting to be read! ostreadfaq:

Just so you guys know I have read the differences... I am just shocked to have not noticed it.... I always thought those were weird `buds` .... ( there is a lot of thc tho when i look at it in light )

The dried out bud tho came from this plant look at the picture thats when it was alive... can you confirm it is a male ?

This is one of the first pictures we posted of the plant it was called `tired` because it was burned up with nutes we believe... and was hanging chilling so we harvested it in the 8th week and apparently it is a male one ? please check it out ....

I don't think I see any balling on that female plant, (If you could it is a hermie. Hermaphrodite - both plant sexes) but I'm looking at it sideways as it was posted. If it was in fact a female it was not left to flower long enough IMHO or it would have had some nuggets even if small.

[Luckyran]

Hey, thanks for the fast replies ,

this stuff gets my high tho, not superhigh but good and I was wondering if the flowering didnt occur yet since theres no nuggets can there be thc ? I feel it as a good head high... im still looking for that good body high Im hoping my other plant will give me that feelin

The other plant is called Miss Daisy and is currently on the balcony not on the roof because of superbad weather. SUPERWINDY and rains... It is covered from above and from the sides so that the rain and wind are no bother and it gets fresh air constantly, now Since tomorrow is a really bad weather I was wondering if I could already harvest this one...

I have a 10x microscope but it is very difficult to see the trichromes and judge them. and the pistils are getting red brownish ....

I took some pictures of Miss Daisy and you can see her status today. Those are the best pictures I think ive posted. I would like to know if those are already real buds or small nuggets , not like the tired one that was harvested before flowering ....

I want you to know that it is really appreciated ; LetsSeeYa , GaGrown , Lynhal you guys reply superquick and have helped me a lot so far and I hope you continue

I wish I had the opportunity to smoke you guys out I would ! thank you so much .

Let me know what you think of Miss Daisy.

[Lynhal]

You are most welcome.

And from those pictures that plant is very close to harvest IMHO. I see quite a lot of trichs ready ... once it is about 2/3 colored with that rusty appearance you are good to go. (I hope you have only watered it (no nutes) for two weeks prior to your harvest. Right now I'm too lazy (buzzed) to go back a re-read if you mentioned that haha)

Best of luck on your drying and curing process yet to come! :rastasmoke:

[Luckyran]

Yeah we fed it only water and dropped the ph levels to 5.5 to 6.5 and added that product RIPEN which is for the last 2 weeks of the plant , its a late flowering solution that gives a strong signal to the plant that it is reaching the end of its life and that makes the plant produce faster and more of the active ingredient that we want thc

Thank you so much, what do you think tho should i harvest already since the weather is so bad, will my plant worsen or get better if i leave it with this weather ... theres no more sun here it is over

thanks so much:rastasmoke:

[Lynhal]

You are quite welcome. And if they were my plants in those conditions I would harvest rather than risk losing them.

If this is what you are using, i would not give it to that plant last posted. Its good to give plain water about 10 days before you harvest your plant.

Also never just pour any thing like this into your grow medium, always read the instructions and then only use half of what it says. Then see if the plant likes it and if so after a couple 3 feeding of half straight, then give full dose.

When you dry your plant, cut the branches with the buds attached and hang them from string in a place that has good air flow, but do not put a fan directly on the branches. Just turn it on and point it in the other direction. When the stems make a cracking noise when you bend them, your buds should be dry enough to be taken off the stem's and put into a brown paper sac. But open the sac once or twice a day for 5 days. Now you can smoke it or put in jars to give you a better tasting bud.


If you gave this plant the ferts, i would wait till you get water through that pot or you will taste the ferts in the buds when you smoke em. So just wait ten days and give only water. Now if that other plant was a female you should have started this fert you have when you first saw flowers. This is how its used at least what info i saw. Like i posted before the NPK would be close to 0-3-2 or something close to that, which is to build your flowers into big buds. But still stop all ferts at least 10-14 day before harvest. I didnt wait before and the buds tasted just like the ferts, nasty:wtf:

Oh and READ MORE



Good luck:rasta:
