getting closer to harvest for my summer collection

here are 3 C99 and one northern lights - all mainlined. one of the C99 plants gets harvested tomorrow morning. this has been a good spring and summer growing season with a lot of sunshine.

How long you let those gals flower? From here they look like they've got a bit but I may just be blind.

Even zoomed in on, they look like they need a little while longer.

They have weeks left to go at minimum,nowhere near ready

From what I see when fully zoomed in, it looks like they are quite nice but I would hold off on harvesting just yet, looks like they still have some fattening to do. Try holding off if you can.

the oldest was harvested yesterday and the others will be staggered through early september. the one harvested yesterday is C99 and it was on day 54 flower

Why so early?

Actually he's good to go then if that time is correct, C99 is Sativa dominant however one of the reasons it is so special is it's ready around 55 days, any longer and you lose that c99 high it's famous for.

You harvest the plant in that pic right now and your mostly smoking pistils

When I grew C 99 that definitely wasn't the case for me. Can't remember how long they went. I know it was longer than 55 though.

Any of the plants in that pic.... Pulling early fucking sucks. Makes me feel like i've wasted a shit ton of time for damn near nothing.

thanks farmer. 55 days and it really packs the C99 sativa punch.

you still got some good pot but i'd doubt you got it when it was at its peak. with C99 i don't even look at the trichromes. i've harvested them at 63 days and thought it's good it's not as good as earlier harvesting

The breeders who made C99 pulled em around 55 and the pros that grow em do as well. You can most definitely take them longer but it defeats the purpose of C99 by degrading it's signature high and turning it into a more of a couch locker strain. Matter of choice and you're not necessarily wrong.

Also the picture is far away (and he claims only one - I assume the back left one is ready). It doesn't do it justice. Google c99 day 55 and you'll see they're looking good to go.

To each their own.

Yeah this is all true. I guess i was just aiming fr sokething different. As I'd rather have something that sits me down. And with thinking of that, time to dab.
