Should I harvest soon?

[woahtherelad]

Im gonna be honest and say that I’ve made a lot of mistakes with this plant. The strain is jack herrer and it’s 11 weeks maybe 12 into flowering. It began having issuies since flowering most of which occurred due to over fert and lock out. I’ve been giving it normal water for the past three weeks and waiting to chop. It’s my first grow and I kind of just want to harvest soon since the leaves are all browning and some of the bud is browning so it’s worrying me and I wouldn’t want it to progress. Anyways, how long do you think I should wait until finally cutting it given the conditions it’s in.

Well that sucks. Yeah you have the result of over fertilization. Didn't you already make a thread about this plant? I think I pointed out the bud die off.

Time to call it a day and move on to the next grow. The biggest mistake many growers make is over feeding. More doesn't mean better. And a dozen bottles of additives are not needed. Pretend your plant is a vegetable and just feed it the basic nutrients it needs.

Looks like you have some nanners and developing seeds as well. And keep that dead stuff off the bottom of the tent.

Yes I did make a thread about this plant but it was a while ago. I had recently noticed the brown spots on the main cola so I posted again so see if I should chop. Good thing I did because I didn’t know that seeds were developing. Can I know why this is happening? Also should I shop as soon as I can? And do I have to leave it in the dark for two days before harvesting?

Stress induced self pollination.

Should I harvest as soon as possible? And should I leave it two days in the dark before harvest?

Here's my reply to a different thread you posted.

I'd cut the dead stuff off and leave the rest. But I'm just speculating as to the best course of action. I've never dealt with something like this myself. I did have a friend years ago that had a similar issue and ended up with bud rot that started where the dead plant material was located.

Ignore my previous post in this thread. Cut all the dead bud material off. The brown dead stuff in the buds. Then just give plain water for a couple weeks and harvest at that time. That's my suggestion but others will probably have other suggestions. Don't worry about the nanners and seeds at his point as there is nothing you can do about it now.

Do you think that if I leave it for longer more seeds will form? Also some of the dead bud material is in the middle of the main cola how would I cut that out? The leaves are all dying and it looks almost like it has a deficiency since the leaves are turning yellow. However, I will try to see if I can wait three more weeks without it getting worse.
