    Time to start flush (or harvest)? Any experienced eyes for trichome close-ups?

    Hi... Saturday will be week 10 (of claimed 7 week flower). Buds are looking proper angry now, but still not seeing much amber. Chop-time?! PS: I did chop one plant at week 8. In retrospect, can see now it was too early. But the buds do what they are supposed to, so can’t be too disappointed...

    Weight Lost During Drying?

    Yeah, 75-80% loss. One batch was 106g wet, 23g dry, 78% loss. Other batch was 253g wet, 60g dry, 76% loss.

    Hi Binks, I found a question from you re availability of organic dry nutrients in Switzerland...

    Hi Binks, I found a question from you re availability of organic dry nutrients in Switzerland. You based somewhere in CH? I am also looking for off-the-shelf organic dry nutrients, without having to import from the US/Canada/UK. Have you found anything of interest? Regards. Van

    Caught in Vicious Cycle? Relationship between Ripening, Amber Trichomes, Feed vs Flushing...

    Not to dredge the whole feed vs flush vs low-nutes feed-flush-hybrid-combo discussion up again, but by question is: Will the buds ripen and trichomes become amber if there is abundant nutrients (given no other changes like light or temp), or does the lack (completely, or reduced) of nutrients...

    Who's Got The Fostiest Buds? Let's See How Frosty A Bud Can Really Get?

    For your consideration, I would like to throw my hat into the ring as well... First indoor grow: Sensi Seeds Super Skunk, 600w MH/HPS, BioBizz soil/nutes, 8 weeks veg, day 55 in flower. Hope to chop in 1.5 weeks. One of the "tops" survived, and this is the original apical cola. The rest of...

    Time to start flush (or harvest)? Any experienced eyes for trichome close-ups?

    True true true... Thx! It always just amazes me how long it takes. Everyone is just saying grow some weed... But then explaining the timeline with germination, seedling, veg, flowering, drying, curing everyone’s surprised it’s not just plant, harvest, smoke... And this is even just for a 7-week...

    Flowering - bad buds... Any help.

    Ok, is that a common or common-ish thing? I mean, should I call someone to come retrieve samples for research and become famous, or something that happens to every grower x% of the time?

    Time to start flush (or harvest)? Any experienced eyes for trichome close-ups?

    I def knew it’s not there yet, but thought 2 week flush would put me in the right spot. The plant with the 20-30% brown pistils had 0% last Sunday. Was anticipating roughly the same progression... But yeah, all knowledge learnt will be put into the next grow. Thanks, will post updates in a...
