planted from seed

i planted my seed (purple urkle) in the begining of may.. my plant sprouted about mid april... my plant as of 8/12/08 is just over 3.5ft tall and very bushey, it has shown its sex to b female... have have done nothing to it as far as food or anything, just water... my plant is just in my back yard along my fence line... would anyone b able to give me a time line for harvesting? pls let me know....

if you got the seeds from a bank check that out . but my
guess would be oct-nov.

harvest the plant when the trichomes turn amber, after this point plant glowth and THC production STOPS, if left in the ground buds mold and THC degrades. its like an apple, (seriously, and in all sences its like an apple) in the begining there is a flower, the pollen recepters (pistils) slowly elongate and a protective layer of nutrient develops around the pollen recepters, if there is pollen, they develop seeds, if not a more potent nutrient layer....the protective layer of the apple turns red, or yellow when ripe (green apples are sweetened unripe apples), the protective layer turns amber on the budz with marijuana.

yo thnx everyone for ur input... so i figure about end or nov. to start of oct.....
great that is much appreatated.... one more "?" should i try and kind food or flowering solution?... as of now man it is growing so good i dont wanna devate from what i hav been doing... (which is just water thats it) but if anything will help i think it would b worth knowing

shit one more "?" my plant is getting pretty tall.and i dont want it to reach higher then my fenceline. i heard u can tie the branches so that they would grow side ways... should i start doing that if so how would i go about doing that, and will it effect the plant in a negitive way...

I would suggest tying it down as that's what I've been doing, but only after a good watering!...you need the stem/stalk to be flexible enough to handle the bending. The point of LST (Low Stress Training, tying down, bending) is to expose more budsites to good sunlight - and keep the height under control - so that's what you should be aiming to do.

I have had nothing but positive results from doing this. I was just a bit worried about the main stalk cracking (because mine was "too mature" than what is ideal), but as long as you do this a few hours after a good watering/rain, you'll be fine.

Best of luck, and pics if you can!

add molasses to the water.....it will make the buds bigger, and its just a natural sugar so it won't shock or damage it at all. just about 1 tsp/gallon. and LST'ing it to create stronger stems + more buds

yo here is sum pix

im think end of sept or mid to late oct...

as of 09/10/08

That's not my plant officer, I swear
