Blue Dream ready?

Hey guys, this is my 2nd grow and just curious about what you all think. We are on 62 days of flower with Blue Dream. I've been paying attention to the trichomes and they look mostly cloudy with just a few ambers..however, I read that you really shouldn't harvest until a good majority of the pistils are curling back into the buds. Which mine are clearly not yet. I'm in a pickle though because I need to move out of my place on the 24th! Thanks for your help.

I guess.....but...every day o_O
I hear ya, we see it a lot. I thought @TreeFarmerCharlie made a funny comment to someone else to turn off the Barney filter. I thought that was a good one.

I'm a smart ass too, but it is his first post. And it sounds like he's done his research. I like to help the people who have made an effort, and did some homework first.

LOL! Yeah, I try to throw a little humor in there, because the first light I bought was not only a blurple, but it drew about 25W. It took me a few days to come to my senses and admit to myself that light would only be good for seedlings but new I also read a LOT and a lot of new growers just don’t know what they don’t know.

The color temp of this light is more “Pink Power Ranger”

Thanks, Yes about a year of research and a couple of books on growing so far. I appreciate the feedback!

Reminded me of the red light district in Germany ....

Blue Dream shouldn’t even be looked at until at least week 10 or 11.
Sativa heavy strain .... sativas take a bit to hit potential.
I was afraid you'd say that. But thank you for replying as well. I'm moving in about 4 days, has anyone had to move about a couple of miles away with their plants? I just don't want to put them through any shock. My first grow turned all Hermes, which was super annoying having to pick the seeds out when smoking...(just like the old days I guess)

One of my faves, don’t think that’s a blue dream clone. The blue dream leaves are usually very narrow and when grown in ideal temps they stretch to hel. I used to grow a blue Larry ( bd x Larry)hybrid that I was able to tame and keep short looked similar. If you keep those short I’d say 70 days max.

Same here. I did a ton of research and still bought a blurple. It's a Vipraspectra 300w wannabe. It's actually unopened still in the box, since I decided to get CMH first instead. It was too late to return it, but I'm gonna sell it to someone around here for like half price.

Yep I've moved fully flowering plants, both across town, and from city to city. Mine were small enough I could fit them into rubber made totes turned onto their ends so they were tall instead of long. Bigger plants can be put into garbage bags, one up from the bottom tucks the branches in nicely, and another over the top covers the plant well. Or a large shipping box, even a wardrobe shipping box if the plants are real tall would work.
