I have heard about not watering two days before harvest. Anyone practice this?
Also what about the darkness for two days before harvest. Does anyone have any experience with either of these things?
yeah those are all myths...they also used to say you should stick a nail through the stalk of your plants to increase thc.... lmaodumb. you can't do anything in two days that took 8+ weeks to get to. IMO
there is a thread here where people are talking of trying that.yeah those are all myths...they also used to say you should stick a nail through the stalk of your plants to increase thc.... lmao

Thanks fdd glad to have you answer my ?
Anyways here's some of my pics of my own eyecandy.
Thanks FDD for the time you have spent teaching us I'm close to the end of my first harvest and I'm bound and determined to not fuck this up.
So I read all 82 pages.
One off the wall question.
I've checked several seed banks and I don't recall ever seeing seeds for Acapulco gold or Panama red (Yep I'm old school) I bought both 25-30 some years back.
Is there another seed name for Acapulco gold or red?
"this is the amber crystals."please do not post in this thread until you see the happy plumber. thanks.
i've been trimming for 12 hours non stop so please bear with me.
we will start with ripeness. most people say to check your trichromes with 30X magnification. i have other ways. when buds are done they look "done". the appearance of the bud changes. the leaves start to hook upwards and become hard and crispy. the calyxes will swell and the hairs will turn brown. you can see a golden tinge to the bud leaves. this is the amber crystals. they start to turn amber on the leaves first.

notice the difference? it's pretty easy to see once it occurs.
Nice avatarnice!! Do u ever S.O.G.?
"this is the amber crystals."
Yes those amber crystals are "trichomes". This is why most experienced growers check them under 30X+ magnification
Why make this any more confusing than it already is?
well im sure lost ...it's not confusing at all.
"not ready"
"ready"
yeah, that's pretty confusing.
