I harvested most of the Indica late Sept.... second week in Oct, I took the top heavy colas of the Sativa and now with the full moon I am going to harvest the bottom half of the 7 plants.... they totally got big and fat and much stickier than they usually are, so taking the top half of the plant works for me. This is how I flower and vegetable garden so it seemed to make sense.

The growing season seems to warrant taking some on the full moon in Sept and then finishing up on harvest full moon in Oct. A few yearas ago I would let them go even into Nov but I think they lost some of their potency... also this year I started seeds earlier, like in march... we had some killer heat waves then and the plants struggled. Almost 50% of them turned out to be males and two hermies which got culled.... the remaining girls are being hang dried for a week and then put into mason jars to cure... usually leave them in there, burping every few days, for about 4-6 weeks. Does anyone leave them in the jars longer than that? Then I seal them with a food saver system and into the deep freeze they go.... should last up to 3-5 years in there. I always have much more than I can use or even give away. I don't sell it but this year with close to 2 dozen quart jars already full and a half a dozen pint jars, and I'm not even finished yet, I kind of wish I did sell it :-))) :wtf:
nugssgalore Reviewed by nugssgalore on . To harvest or not to harvest. Hi all, this is the first time I have used "Overdrive".... started about 2 weeks ago on Indica that was close to harvest....now it has completely changed, grew a ton of new white flowers, colas bulked up twice their size and got dense but now I am not sure if it is harvest time. The old flowers have brown hairs but the new ones are all still white with clear trichomes. I don't want to let them get past their peak like I have done before but dont want to cut them prematurely.' The Sativas Rating: 5
