Will I be able to harvest my plant?

So I started growing my bagseed in the beginning of June and long story short it had a rough start and is starting to bud during late August. My question is will she still be able to be harvested? I think she will be able to pack on the buds during the month of September if the weather permits but I am concerned with a plant flowering this late into the season. She has got 5 main tops as you can see in the picture and it is an outdoor grow with zero nutes except some molasses. I am prepared to bring her into an indoor enviornment if necessary during a nighttime freeze so please don't post any outdoor greenhouses. My question is purely if she will still grow if I decide to bring her indoors during the nighttime when it gets too cold around October?

as long as u have ample lighting shouldn't be a problem. least i wouldn't think tho i dont grow outdoors.... its in a pot only thing i sould think is set ur light time with the sun up/down and dial back to 12/12 over time

Hey buddy, How many weeks has she been flowering?

Hey man, she has been flowering for almost a week, about 5 days now. Any advice in order to get her to bloom enough before the snow? I am stressing out on time here and could really use some suggestions.

You north or south? I know outdoor growers in upstate NY who run till late October.

But i guess it depends on the flowering time of the plant. You can always bring it in when it starts to get late in the season. but they will not swell as much.. Unless you can bring them out during the day and in at night.

I am growing up north near NY so it is refreshing to hear that people are growing all the way to October man =) good looks. I think ill just scoot her inside when it gets chilly at night.

Plants in the north east start flowering in August and finish in October. This is the plant following the natural photoperiods. The longer nights signal it to flower.

As long as it is an 8-10 week strain, I dont see why it wouldnt flower just fine. Planting late in the year only means youll end up with a smaller plant when flowering begins and a smaller harvest come october.

She will be able to withstand temps into the 50's. If she is very close and its getting into the upper 50's I would let her finish outside. IMO, the cold brings out some nice flavor, smell and color to buds. If October comes and she isnt even close, I would bring her inside to finish. If at all possible, do this rather do this that harvest early.

So first preflowers began on 8/22 when she was about a foot tall with lst. Right now I can see a lot of bud sites forming the white hairs. Its really hard to tell the quantity ill get from her. There are what I am calling the five main colas that will form and then there are two middle tops coming off the main branches from topping her that are also budding. Anyone know or can give me a rough estimate to when her calyx's will start to look bigger? I also don't see any trichomes yet, can anyone tell me when I will start to see signs of them?

So it has been officially 2 weeks since I saw the first preflowers and she is looking good. Still no trichomes visible but there has been some stretch and more white hairs. I gotta say these bud sites look really small for what I can see and examine compared to others. Granted this is my first grow so can anyone tell me if that's just how it grows at first or if I'm tripping or what? Let me know if this girl seems to be on track for 2 weeks after sighting preflowers.

Something else you can do to hurry the harvest would be to cover the plant or bring it inside to a darkened room to reduce the number of daylight hours to 11 or even 10.5 per day. The early flowers look fine and will fill in with time I am also in the upper latitudes and in the mountains and I assure you that cannabis will grow fine with night time temps down below 40F for short periods of time. I have a hoophouse and extend my outdoor season until mid-late October by heating them at night in the latter stages. Good luck

Feed her shes hungry!

She gets right around 10 hrs of sun a day so I'm all set with that. It got to like 48 degrees last night which I was worried about but she's fine. Today was a quirk in the weather for some reason its only going to get to about 70F and then the rest of the week is 75-80F so that's good. I am more convinced that she looks skinny because I don't have anything to feed her except time release pellets that are 10-16-10. I want to keep feeding her the tblspn of molasses to 1gal of water but the soil is still way to moist from the rain we got last week. I will post a new picture soon guys thanks for the input.

I gave her a tablespoon of molasses with a gallon of water only like twice with a span of like 2 weeks, im sure this wouldn't be a problem a month later
