    Any Commercial Drying, Curing and Packaging Wizard Out There??

    heres my .02 .. commercial means mass, lots of buds curing together could mean that there's so much bud in a bag or jar whatever, that it smashes down on each other compacting them right ? Humboldt County's Own - Gravity, I use the purple maxx and love it. I think gravity will give you more...

    Last week before harvest

    When you dry / cure you're playing with moisture. a danger zone if you're on the watery side. Mold ! mildew ! You want a minimal amount in the buds when you jar them, hence the outside feeling crispy while the stems are still bendy. Now open those jars(5 mins) on a daily or hourly basis to...

    Moving !! indoor grow must become outdoor

    Im moving this weekend and my baby got put into the flower tent a little late because i chopped it up and tied it down lst. This last clone is #8 of the batch. The others are trimmed and drying but this baby needs about 2-3 more weeks to reach the flowering point the other clones did. Indoor...

    Which is better to use to check trich's a 30x magnifier or a 60x to 100x microscope?

    listen to roseman, your life will be easier. I got a 60-100x.. i've mastered viewing trics while on the plant , its very hard. i end up using the 60x, 100x is too powerful to see the big picture. cut a sample off and put it somewhere steady to view your plant will be fine and life will be easier.

    Trichome development after the clipping

    Im starting to notice amber trics showing up now after 10 weeks on 12/12 lighting. The majority are cloudy, few clear with even less amber. I was wondering if they will develop, mature or rippen while they hang dry ?

    What do you regret most?

    I regret cutting some of my harvest early, I chopped plants at 7th week, 8th week and 9th week to see what "early bud" was like (1st grow). Now i just finished week 10 starting week 11 and i think i'll stop the foolishness and let them complete their life till the hairs pull all the way in...

    what do you think guys???

    can you post an updated picture now ? ... Let the hairs recede back into the bud as long as you can, they will swell up doing so increasing yield :) Just keep an eye on the trics if you're scared of couchlock ;) ... it will be worth it trust me.

    how long do i flower for?

    With the research i've came across: Depending on genetics anywhere from 7-14 weeks. Watch the white hairs come out, turn brown then they'll pull back in and the bud will swell, after that swelling would be the window to start choppin not a moment sooner !, let them swell ! It took my crop 57...

    is it done yet?? classic +pics +rep

    First Off ! Im a noob. It seems like the hairs could pull back into the buds just a little bit more(swell?), it looks a tidbit on the hairy side. What do the trichomes tell you now ? I had more than enough plants needed for myself so I plucked my runt at day 50 cuz i thought all the trics...

    Flushing time, do I adjust the Ph ?

    Brown spots on leaves

    are you just feeding it base nutrients ? n-p-k only ? You need "trace minerals" (boron, zinc, magnese etc..) then later on you'll need carbs / sugars .

    twisting branches

    Some of my fan leaves twist completely sideways similar to yours just not as far and i have no idea why.. too much pro-silicate would be my guess. "helps keep plants upright, positioning the leaves correctly"

    To Flower or Not to Flower

    flower now, mine exploded after the 2700k light came into play(from 4' fluorescents). 2ft plants shot up to 6-1/2ft. Growing stops after flower week 5 i noticed with mine, so if you make it that far you should be good.
