ratdog Posted November 13, 2023 Share Posted November 13, 2023 that last pic looks a couple of weeks off, if not more 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stu sleeper 20vt Posted November 13, 2023 Share Posted November 13, 2023 Some are more ready than others. I assume your needing to use your tent/grow space to dry in?? If so then yes another week should see them good to go. Actually it's rather nice to harvest your plants when they're all at ready but slightly different stages of ready ad it gives you a nice variety of effects. Looks an amazing result for your first time!! Bet your well chuffed! What are.they? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Military Grade Posted November 14, 2023 Share Posted November 14, 2023 (edited) 6 hours ago, ratdog said: they are still pumping out pistils like crazy That can also be a by product of too much light intensity from the LED's and they could never finish if you're waiting for them to stop pushing out new pistols, I'm not saying it's the case here as i would also go longer, but something to bear in mind. Those Lumatek's are pretty beasty lights I've has a couple of strains i've waited ages for (14+ weeks) and they never stopped pushing out more pistols and fox tails even tho the rest of the plant was looking fully cooked and the trichomes where abount 80% amber, and it can get to the point where the risk of bud rot becomes a factor. Better to smoke some weed that a bit racy then throwing the lot in the bin. 6 hours ago, ratdog said: and tbh flushing is a myth Depends of your interpretation of what a flushing means, i know theres a few different things people thinks it means, But a plant using it's own stored resources is not a myth. 6 hours ago, ratdog said: in fact there isn't a brown one to be seen Should have gone to specsavers Edited November 14, 2023 by Military Grade 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
