Yep it's that time again already.
It hasn't been long since I last posted pics of the three Im waiting to harvest but, they are changing daily with the number of leaves going yellow and being removed.

First up, here's "The Room"

The two in the middle are Jay & Dog (aka the twins), Biga is on the right with Ivy behind.
Charley is on the left with the thermometer below her top cola. Behind Charley is Alice.

Thats more like it, all pictures and no chat.
As you can tell from some of the closer shots, not a lot of amber going on.
You wouldn't believe I begin week 11 of floweing tomorrow.
Looking more and more like a 12 week job.
I hope not because Charley has been on just water and molasses with superthrive for over 2 weeks noiw.
The other two for about a week.
I hope you liked the pics.
Bump .

Well that moment is almost upon us now.:weed:

Charley is not far behind, she has about 40% amber trics.
By the time I have cut and hung Ivy, Charley should be ready.

choppyty chop chop


if u need a hand i have a sharp knife for ya
LOL You can help me a bit if you can tell me the best way to harvest them.

Well, before the chop. The plan is to let it dry out first to stress the plant.

then give it 24 hours of darkness before the chop.

Is that right? Is there anything else I should do?

Thanks Mr West.

what i do is reduce the water so its at a min, if i have room ill put sed plant into a cold dark cupboard for approx 36 hrs. I then take all the leavs off and manicure while still in the pot but shortly after i cut and hang for 2 or 3 days. Then i strip the branches and put all the buds in a jar if i have enough lol or bags if its a small amount. ill probly quick dry the popcorn buds to help with the waiting lol.

Hiya Barking, how's it going mate? No need to ask really, I can see from your pics things are going from strength to strength. Bloody hell man, those colas are awesome LOL. Apart from the fact you must've carelessly spilt a bag of sugar over those poor girls, what a job you've done Barking. Some great smoking times ahead, keep up the good work. I look forward to seeing your first harvest. I'll put up some pics later today all being well if you want to stop by my journal. Catch you later ....

Hello GreenB.
Nice to hear from you. I'm looking forward to seeing some new pics of your ladies.

Thanks Westie.
I haven't watered her for a couple of days now so she is bone dry.
I will put her in a cupboard now and then maybe start chopping tomorrow.



As you can see, there isn't much left to trim.
Man it's been a long wait.


I am posting some pics in a minute.
I have tried getting some close up's of the trics.

Well here we go.
I have been trying to get some pictures with the aid of my scope.
They are a bit blurred but you can see the amber trics in some of them.

In this first pic, I have circled what looks like little black dots.
These are the top of ther amber trics.


Although it's blurred, you can see a few spots and amber plus the dark spots that are in a few of the trics.








I saved the best one for last. This one clearly shows the amber trics.
