i have green crack in 3rd week flower . good strain to start with . good luck , if u have any questions everyone this app will help u out . this app us especially good for people’s starting out . we treat everyone with respect. this hobby has so much to offer & no matter how long u been growing u still learn new tricks

CannaBee99

when u growing especially when u start out u want to tell people that u grow . be careful & don’t tell people u don’t trust a 100%. this goes for states where it legal to grow . people will do anything to steal your shit . if u indoor growing u need to protect the family . I’m an old time guerilla grower over 40 years . my great uncle was a cannabis farmer since the 1930’s . good luck πŸ€ πŸ‘ & any questions don’t hesitate to reach out to anyone on this site . good group of people

fungi don't hurt plants. they actually help in root productivity and sugar exchange. mold KILLS plants. you my friend got lucky. I personally would keep the fungi

thanks

Not a bad sign, but just back down on watering a bit, allow some dry back.

Shadow_Pegasus

This is actually so cute. Fungi and root systems are best of friends so you should def keep em, the real body is in the soil anyways. Look up mycorrhizae and living soil, real interesting stuff.

Purple_Nug25

thank you for the advice..I'm leaving them there.

mushrooms are normally a good sign when dealing with soils and compost etc... typically meaning top quality πŸ‘Œ

stress will cause delays in flowering with autos. your plants are very stressed. 😫 without more data for us it’s hard to say what happened to your girls. provide ec, ph , humidity and temperature this will help us help you.

building a tent

well I'm in the process of building my own tent..lol no clue really what im doing, have never done any kind of project like this. no blueprint, lot of remeasuring and re cutting. got maybe 50 in pvc, emergency blanket were 3 bucks for 2 pack, amd zip Ties.
also I had 40 bucks in menards rebates..lol. ordered lights and fan amd filter from ebay. was 160, cashed out some games I play for 90 of that..lol
so hasn't cost me much. definitely cheaper than buying a pre-made 4x4 tent. wld have been easier, no doubt. but im really proud of ehat im building. wanted to share with like minded individuals

lmfao.. I just called myself lady macguyver at work the other week when I makeshift a desk. ya i got tools.. a saw to cut pvc,and boards, duct taped emergency blanket to boards,sld have used a staple gun instead of duct tape. used my drill to drill holes for zip ties to hold boards to pvc.

yellowing and curling

temp 74 and humidity 55%
the leaves started curling and I thought it was cause I had a fan blowing directly on the so I switch it to face the wall. but now I have yellowing on the leaves. not sure why. these girls have had lot of stress. and I think they only got some big bloom one time. other than that just water that I check amd adjust the pH

it's hard to tell with those lights. maybe turn them off and use a regular light. if you've only fed once and they are out of soil nutes, they may be starving!

E
Euphoric_Hit2666

yes agreed they starving or u put to much of ff big bloom at one time in water remember first time feeding you should do half or a quarter of dose of wat is on bottle to see how they react or maybe ur underwatering it what size container are u growing in May be root bound

E
Euphoric_Hit2666

definitely need to get rid of that light it's adding unnecessary constant stress 150 buck u can get an awesome farmliyt grow light u should look them up so just as good as name brand lights all I use now but 300bucks cheaper have had them now 3 yrs n run every day all yr long

Purple_Nug25

they are in 5 gal menards buckets with holes drilled around sides and bottom got them sittin up on little wood blocks so not sittin right in plastic drain container. Just did ff yesterday.. moved the light further away also. they have definitely mlbeen stressed. thank you for advice.

Purple_Nug25

I moved them further from the lights. I think they were too close. they are only 600 watt lights. I wldnt think they too powerful. think I paid 95 for both of them.

E
Euphoric_Hit2666

yea I just gave to much food to a young clone well 2 lol last night and now they are looking the exact same smdh but wat do we do just learn ik I won't do that again next time lol or ever happy growing growmie

well i just gave food yesterday and it was doin that befor the feeding, so Im not seeing more yellow development after moving the lights further away. hopin that will help. next cpl day will tell I guess, thank you

E
Euphoric_Hit2666

definitely try to come up on a full spectrum light n ditch the blurple I've been right there where u at now when I just started out same trying wat was givin or told was a deal

Purple_Nug25

so thinking about my next grow. as a new grower, I only want to try 2 plants. what im debating on is if I should/want to try 2 of the same or 2 different plants?!?! opinions, please????

Glitch

different strains are more fun, watching them grow, how different they look, but it's much easier to do 2 of the same strain. id take it a step further and say 2 clones from the same plant. when you start getting into multiple strains you're going to find they all want something different. one will want to be fed more, one less. you'll end up making 2 different batches of food with different EC or you'll end up over feeding one and underfeeding the other. Even seeds from the same plant can want different care. my last grow was a 2 plant, seed from same mom. one was fed appropriately, the other had nitrogen toxicity but I couldn't change it because I was in rdwc.

GrowBob605

when you decide it’s ready(10% amber trichomes and 90% cloudy) chop and hang dry in 60/60 environment with good airflow. I dry mine for minimum 14 days or until the stems snap

Purple_Nug25

ok what does 60/60 environment mean? do I need tonlet it hang to dry in the dark?

GrowBob605

sorry, 60 degrees F and 60% relative humidity. needs to be as close to that as possible. hang in the dark if possible because lights and direct airflow on them will degrade trichomes and terpenes. remember if temps and humidity get too high the buds will lose their terpenes and trichomes.

LibreLoud

Now is the most difficult part: you wait for them to ripen ;) based on your pics I'd say at least another week or two but it's hard to tell definitively without a close-up. I'd recommend getting a cheap-o jewelers loupe or microscope off amazon so you can check the trichomes, that's the "best practice" way of determining when to chop. As the other poster mentioned, maybe start getting your "dry and cure" environments planned out or ready

Purple_Nug25

ok thank you. I do have a magnifying glass with a light on it i have been using.

Freenuggz

That will work as long as you can see those mushroom like crystals up close. That's where the 90% cloudy 10% amber that the other guys was saying cones into play. Overall she looks great!

Purple_Nug25

sld I start flushing them? Just water not nutrients? I been using General Hydroponics.

Funkey

I agree based on your pics u have some time left .stop giving it nitrogen.id just use water if I were u

Freenuggz

I would definitely go another week with your bloom nutes and the flush for a week or two before harvest

if ur n last week to ten days of flower just finish flushing these 7 to ten days

Purple_Nug25

ok im not even sure if im in last 7 to 10 days. then what do I do after just using water for 7 to 10 days? Just trim off the sugar leaves, hang them to dry for bout 14 days?

D
DitchWeed

really only looking for about 20% amber.

Purple_Nug25

ok.. thank you

Krazie_Gro_Za

yes and then cure for at least 6 to 8 weeks… burp ur jars and b patient promise it a all be worth it

Freenuggz

Being a beginner myself, the suspense is killing me. Yours and mine are looking at the same level of ripeness. I believe I have at least 1 more week left because my trichomes are still very cloudy and have not got the reddish tint to them yet. Check your smaller buds lower on the branches. The trichomes there can tell you how much the plant still needs to mature.

Glitch

looks good from here. id cut her down. cut right at the base and hang the whole thing upside down. closer you can be to 60f and 60% rh the better. fan to circulate air, but not blowing directly on the plant. when you're ready we can walk you through the next part. nice job so far!!

Purple_Nug25

oh wow. u really think so? I was thinkin a week of flushing without nutrients, just ph balanced water...

I been flushing, the water is not draining clear. amd do they need time in darkness befor I cut and hang to dry? do I need to trim the sugar leaves off before hanging? I know i gots lots of questions and I appreciate all the help. Again this is my first grow and I'm learning..thank you.

Run off will probably never be fully clear. Taking large leaves, will make bucking and trimming easier after hanging. I leave the fans on, and go dark for 72 hours before chopping them down.

Glitch

there is no published, peer reviewed scientific evidence to prove it does or does not do anything. 1 prohibition made studies nearly impossible. 2 every strain is going to be different in means of terpine production so it'll be very difficult to get a repeatable outcome. what is know is in the dark THC will not increase. what trichomes are there will ripen faster ie going from clear to cloudy or cloudy to amber. also with no photosynthesis the plant will start breaking down some chlorophyll, if it's a noticable amount is debatable. one thing other things to consider is humidity spikes in the dark period and at peak flower humidity is your enemy.

Funkey

not everyone rinsed either if u running live soil that's throwing away money.none of us are sure u ready to harvest u need a jewlers loupe I have the ac infinity one u look at tricomes and when 10-20 % your tricomes are amber it's done .but u should definitely stop giving it any nitrogen

Purple_Nug25

also, when do I do last watering befor either putin into darkness or cutting and hanging them? tha k you for all the help.. im sure some of my questions seem dumb but please member im a 1st timer

J
jfidds420

if u have a good camera on ur phone u can zoom in on the bud take the picture and zoom in on the trichomes to see them that way too and i always let my trichomes go 30 % 70% and the guys on the real DGC live by putting them in the dark for 72 hours ive never tried it i just use bud candy and always get really great results ive used molassess and i think bud candy works better my preference it all boils down to do what u perfer take a little of all the advice and piece it together and make it work for u

SIX

Thank you Glitch for explaining that. I laugh when people say they are putting them in the dark. One person says to do it then becomes that’s what you do. haha I haven’t heard a logical explanation for why it helps. I have tried it and I found it to be useless.

Glitch

there are no dumb questions. I dont so the dark thing so I can't tell you from experience. but I don't think I'd want it super wet. I would probably lean toward dryer end but not bone dry. I don't know if that helps or not, it's one of those your results may vary kind of answers

Yep, just turn on some music, and dive right in. It's a labor of love! You'll be glad you did, after it cures. You will eventually get faster. πŸ™‚

Glitch

yeah it sucks. I don't consume much of it myself so I have a few comrades that I just hand branches to and say 'you want this, you can trim it' oh and a bowl trimmer..........

Glitch

once they are dry, cut the buds off the stem and put them into mason jars 3/4 loosely filled. don't pack em in. once a day give the jar a gentle shake to move the buds around and take the lid off for 15 min. do this for about 2 weeks. when you take the lid off squeeze a few buds. putting them in the jar draws moisture from the center out. if the buds feel wet again, put them on the dry rack for another day and start the process over again. if they are too dry, stick a few fan leaves in the jar with them and it'll rehydrate them slightly

Purple_Nug25

thank you. ive got them in mason jars. I been opening them. wasnt sure how long. but how long do I need to let it cure , bout 2 weeks? then it ready to smoke

Glitch

you can smoke at any point really. longer you wait the better it'll be. Ive had buds that really changed in aroma complexity at 6 months. went from lemony to a floral lavender smell, I thought I mislabeled it. others didn't change or improve after 3 weeks. so it's really up to you.

StankyBerry5455

Me personally I hang the entire plant leaf and all if you leave all the leaves all the moisture that’s still in. The leaves drains out to the buds and has a longer slower dry time. That’s how I get my 14 days drying by leaving all the leaves I don’t do any kind of wet trimming and I find it comes out way better way more sticky after the plant dry and then when you carry it, it’s still sticky through the entire process.

Purple_Nug25

ok. I got 2 branches hanging dryin with leaves still on..gonna try it that way also. does it need to be in complete darkness?

StankyBerry5455

I don’t separate branches I hang the entire plant leaves and all

I would’ve let that go another couple of weeks and watered it a little extra to make the leaves fade out fall colors. Take a look at my outdoor greenhouse and look at all my plants. They all turned fall colors, yellow, red oranges beautiful colors I just harvested on Sunday all my plants
