This was my first grow and I ended up with just one plant (Diesel Berry auto) and in a nut shell I am leaving to go on vacation on July 7th for 4 or 5 days. Well the plant has been flowering since June 1st or so and I figured that it wouldn't be finished till mid July.
I just bought a microscope to check the plants readiness and the top half is already to be harvested and the lower portion is very close to my surprise... I hadn't started flushing because of this and just flushed it last night, but I wanted have a chance to flush for as long as possible at this point. I heard people say you need to not water it for a couple days before you harvest but I'm leaving sat morning so I need to make the most of the short time I have.
This plant has been extremely fast and all the rules pertaining to others seem cut in half time wise. So I'm assuming only water from now on but do I need to stop watering a certain amount of time before?
Also I'm nervous about having the plant drying without me home to monitor it as I've never harvested before. I basically want to keep the plant fresh and not hurt the process while gone so I can't pick up where I left off when I get back. Should I take the whole plant ( it's small and compact ) and hang it upside down in a dark room with a fan keeping the air moving?
The wife plans these vacations and of course it's right when I need to be here...
Any advice would be appreciated! Thanks
