I have outdoor sativas I think 2 are ready. There are very, very few white pistils left. When I look thru magnifier the trichomes are all milky with a slight tinge of amber. If I want a more heady high is now the time to harvest?
Yep it would be a good time. Milky trippy
amber couch lock mix of trich mix of high.

I have heard of cutting them down with just the tips brown while still milky.... hanging them with leafs or some leaf on. Let the rest of the moisture in the leaf, turn it brown..... takes longer to dry, more flavor.. I'm about to try on this harvest. one more frost maybe....

Hey FDD, long time no talk! I'm on the church and blue venom now, upgraded to a 400hps...I thought i was starting to know what the hell i'm doing, but when i switched my organic nutes last week to the finishing nutes, all the leaves are turning yellow! I think its cause the buds are ripening? But i noticed on your buds all the leaves are nice and green and healthy! Any suggestions or answers would be great! :joint:

I've been away from home so I'm not sure exactly what the trichomes look like. But last week when I checked them they were all pretty cloudy and clear.

I've got a stupid question. :lol: To what files do these "attach" numbers match?

Sometimes thumbnails in the middle of posts open in new windows, but others they do the regular "slide show" thing. I prefer the latter when reading posts, and would like to be able to do so when posting myself for certain types of content. (I don't want the attachments to open in a new window/tab unless I instruct the browser to do so.)

Can I get help in this, please? :bigjoint:

BTW mgh, nice looking buds there! :hump:

if you click it once it opens in a thumbnail, click it twice and it goes to a new window. :wink:

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?bongsmiliebongsmiliebongsmilie
I do remember Acapulco Gold and Panama RED .... Acapulco Gold was mid/late 60's .. Panama Red was mid/late 70's ...

haha Acapilco Gold was $10/lid

Panama Red was more like $30 / 1/2 oz

Acapulco Gold was better !

the Sour diesel I just grew turned a golden color late in flowering and was every bit as good ..or better than the Acapulco Gold I used to get ... to this day some of the best smoke I've ever had was Oaxacan .. Sativa Seeds has a Mountain Oaxacan available
