Did you harvest? Did you have very much amber in the trichomes, yet? I sure hope so! pr

[andy8_5_85]

No harvest today, the trichs are still mostly cloudy with specs of amber. My set date is now going to be Saturday the 3rd. That will be the only day i will be able to harvest within the timeframe IM shooting for. I plan to give it one last plain watering tommorow then shut off lights for roughly 36 hours starting Thursday night then harvest on Saturday. Thanks for the bump PR!

Well yesterday i got a little excited so i snipped one of the lower buds off so i can have a little taste sooner than the whole batch. I set aside the trimmings to dry and today i sampled the cuttings that were covered with crystals. I was amazed! It was clean and tasty with a very mellowing effect. I can't wait until the finished product is ready. I am shutting off lights tonight until my harvest satuday. I will have some pics up in a bit to show her last days. I must say i am having a bit of a hard time getting myself ready for what IM going to be doing, as this plant has really grown on me, much like a pet. Thankfully i have a few seeds so i can keep her memory alive. And thanks again to everyone that has given their input, it has all been great.

You gotta be excited!!!!...You might want to think about a reveg........Look up Rusty Trichrome on this board and check out his thread about reveging after harvesting a plant......I've tried it myself a couple of times with out success but if you're sorta attached to the old girl,ya might want to give it a shot!:twocents:..............................J

Well everybody, here we are on day 59 of flower. IM shutting her down for harvest. Enjoy!

Well its done! I harvested Saturday and did the trimming as well. The yield wasn't massive but it is very dense high quality bud. I decided against reveg and am going to be starting fresh soon. It looks likes it will come out to about 20-30 grams dry, which i know isn't good for one plant, but i came into this not expecting that much. I have learned a lot over the past months and plan on doing things better next time. I also got 3-4 usable seeds so i might try this strain again and try for a better yield. I currently have them hanging in my darkened grow box with indirect air flow and will be there for about 5 more days. Enjoy, i know i have!

And here's the trimming and how incredibly root bound this plant was.

Hi andy#'s...Nice harvest!!!

Enjoyed the show! Now for the glow..smoke report, after cured! Makes a big difference! If you can wait, that long! So, I asked Mr. Rusty Trichome, today about seeds from female plants, let me see, I might be able to copy the answer here, just happened to notice this and it sure seems like a good day for the answer!

I had hoped for some "current" century discussion...
This is from a post, today! The Following; copied without permission by pr of Rusty Trichomes' response's. (he is banned here). Idk why, so don't ask! pr
Re: New Project

Forcing a stable female to hermie is how femmed seeds are made. The pollen is collected from the female, and used to pollinate any other female you desire. No male genes, means no male seeds. Supposedly.

But if a plant goes hermie without effort...this means it's too quick to pull the 'genetic response' trigger. (throws-out nanners too easily)

This can be from 3 things usually...

Operator error. Prolonged stress, and the new grower...go hand-in-hand. Ph swings, over/under feeding, over/under watering, inability to control the enviornment... causes stresses that can build-up and tip the scale even in a normally stable strain.

Genetic weaklings. Chemical assaults or other stresses during seed-set, too many back-crosses to itself, a genetically weak parent or two were used to breed with, seeds not fully formed...

Lack of patience. If you rush processes...like putting 6 inch seedlings into flower, or throw every additive known to the horticulture kingdom at 'em, or use base nutreints from different comapnies...you can push 'em too hard or create toxic conditions.
