How much longer would you think G4J :shock:
Yeah I'm still using the water and molasses every 2 days

And who knows if i'm right or not and I was counting from the first day I switched 12/12 not from the first sign of sex but I was and still am learning so it could be weeks out, I must go back and check the pics to see when did they first show sex:confused


:I'm just after checking and i reckon they didn't start showing till the second week so by that count its only week 9 well fuck it anyway

its hard to tell man, but you want to give them just plain water though to flush em'..

i dont think it matters personally.. some people just count straight from 12/12, others when they show sex. but its all up to the grower when to harvest and even when the packet says 8-9 weeks, it can always be different...
I'm counting from 12/12..but if i need a more accurate date then i can allways go back and see when they showed..:mrgreen:

Yea its fine to use molasses right up till harvests, i've never use it but from my understanding its meant to sweeten the taste of the bud and help add a bit of weight!

The last few pics were taken after the light went out with the flash of the phone ,I noticed myself how the buds could be seen more clearly in the last pics as if the THC glistens with the flash :weed: I will take more pics tomorrow close up ones
I'm real worried about tonight temps are to drop really low and there isn't shit i can do about it now :cry: hopefully they will be ok

I can't see much harm being done to them now man, you're too close to harvest to get any major problems, apart from mold...

:peace:

Whats my worries when it comes to mold ?
I have a box with strings for hang drying with slits for vents ,I'm going to put it in the grow unless the HS finishes the same time then i might just hang in the attic
Also G4J when I say low temps I mean like -5 Celsius so I'm thinking frost but I could be paranoid

Damn.. -5.. thats low man...:neutral: don't think thats good either..

Don't worry yourself too much about mold man, usually you can smell it in the air, just check your buds for anything that might be suspicious, ie.. white mildew on leaves and buds, browned, dead looking bud that is 'mushy' to the touch and just anything that lookes not right.. :mrgreen: try not to mistake yellowing leaves as mold though or you'll be forever worrying.. :lol:

Yea man i used a big box, cut holes in the bottom of each side and placed a small oscillating fan outside of it.. not blowing directly in, but enough air movement so that you can feel it inside the box...
they hung in there on coat hangers to dry and then cut the buds off and left on a tray inside before finally curing in a jar.. :mrgreen:
if i can find the pics i'll post dem.... :mrgreen:

:peace:

You'll be surprised once you get it all hung up there man, :mrgreen:
just gotta think about how much £££'s you gunna save not having to buy the crap onda street though. BooYa!:hump:
:mrgreen:

:peace:

oh and i forgot to mention that if you do dry your buds out a bit quick and they're a bit crispy on the outside, then just pop dem in a baggie for a few hours then burp and re-bag for another few hours or untill they feel like the moisture is even through out the bud..
