hi
this is my first attempt at growing
anyhow i have grown 4 sweettooths under 1x600 w son-t lamp in pots after they grew to about 1 1/2 - 2 ft i put them ito flowering stages all was well resin up nice very frosty after 6-7 weeks the hairs are tirning to an amber colour like strands of tobacco so i figured this was time to pull them down how ever i have notice the day b4 i cropped the resin / frostyness had disapaired from 100% frostyness to like 10-20 % have i pulled em to early / late why has the frostin disapaired. they are now hanging upside down in a cool dark area and will be checkin every 2-3 days for signs of mold

So.. You are saying the trichomes disappeared? Or just the nice milk color to them.

Maybe they will complete this magic act and " reappear "

lmfao i dont think they will as ive stated there now upside down drying but i gotta say they do stink
so hopefully when dried n cured they will be a nice smoke.
so any sugestions on what to try next i was either thinking the honeybee or the golden grapefruit.

it may have been a bit premature on the harvesting. its all about trich color, not the color of the hairs

either way, youll have some decent toke for free
