hell yeah, good to know, feeling better every day after a period of total panic and hard work now to be just followed up on. thanks for that info.

on another note, i just got this led lighted 60x lens and i`m looking at a bud of mine about 4 months into curing. i just took a quick look cuz the thing hurts my eyes, but i swear i saw trichomes still transparent. what are you supposed to be seeing close up after harvest+drying n curing? i`m...

well it might be more difficult for me to get my hands on the right supplies, but regardless of that, you gotta know what to do with them, which i`m learning little by little but steadily feeling more sure about what i`m doing. so my respects to you seasoned growers. you have a skill. i read...

ok, great, and maybe avoid looking at the more outer possibly damaged leaves. if that`s the case then i have no ambar at all, if i avoid those leaves that look damaged cuz the ones with more ambar are the ones i think that have even areas on the leaf with no trichomes at all, from damage as you...

yeah, i can see what looks like damaged leaves. so in that case would you go for the more inner areas that haven`t been so exposed to damage? i see some people recommend observing the calyxes, not leaves, i can get a good view inside and that`s where i see more solid white, no ambar. i`m pretty...

aahhh, now that`s something i have never read, about early breakdown. i`ll look into it, thanks.

where the hell is the LIKE button? LIKE, LIKE LIKE, thank you.

thanks so much for the advice. seems i panicked. i think this patient is at just about 10 weeks into flowering, got my magnifying glass in the mail and i think i`m doing ok. i had never heard what you say about checking the bottom of outside of the pot. right on. i`ll have to get a moisture...

i`ll have to check real well the previous responses, my mail stopped warning me. but if some troll is attacking, ignore him/her. they`re everywhere, like whiteflies, blackflies, yellowflies. fuck trolls and the horses they ride in on. well the horses no, just the trolls.

sorry my mail stopped warning me i had people answering. this is great, so many helpful people, that`s what it`s all about. if i knew how to LIKE your comments i would, but i don`t see that option. on another topic, if i might be so bold as to keep taking advantage of your generosity, i just...

here`s an interesting fact i never read but advice i got from an expert. here people often have to come up with their own remedies for things since, one, there`s a lot of poverty, and two, we`re very isolated and it`s not so easy to get your hands on things and for the same reason they`re even...

i`m definitely using the right soap. i have an expert helping me with that part. i live in a rural part of a third world country so i don`t have garden centers down the street, ha ha. just these many many stores that sell products for farming, including insecticides both chemical and then...

i shouldn`t have said it was close to harvest. what i should have said is that it was already well into it`s budding stage, from my little knowledge i didn`t think the buds would get any bigger, for instance. bulkier but not bigger/fatter,just more dense hopefully. i have no idea what i`m...

some of those last pics might look like there is a white rot going on, but it`s just the photo. if you zoom in it`s actually bright white trichomes i think. no rot. plant looks very clean actually, just no white hairs anymore, but the trichomes seem totally intact.

this is from sept.19 after i sprayed the whole plant down with the hose then applied soap and water with a spray bottle. i plan to rinse the buds to get the soap off later. what worried me was that afterwards all the white pistils were gone! and that was my only way of judging ripeness cuz i...
