When and how to harvest??
3 months ago
wyattwelding101 Use a microscope 40x and inspect trichomes you want 75% milky trichomes and 25% amber especially the amber since you are growing indica. Cut the whole plant and let it hang and it is done drying (in my opinion) right before the stem wants to snap if it snaps it is too dry in my opinion.
Witschequast i got one of these cheap bluetooth microscopes from amazon (1000x times bla bla) works very well! i look somewhere "in the middle" of the plant... if the trichomes are there all cloudy and some amber (~10% amber) i start flushing 4-7 days and then harvest! If you are a beginner, best practice is, if YOU think it's time to harvest, give it ONE MORE WEEK! (you will be safe, it takes 6-8weeks past harvest time before you totally fuckd up) so 1 more safes you from beeing impatient!!! 😉
Xander Kaliyuga Awesome. So one more week more or less.

Witschequast Ah now i see the full Plant... somehow it looks like u switched to flower a bit late... somehow the plant looks like not from seed but from clone but could be from pruning or so...
Xander Kaliyuga It was from pruning.

Wondering when I should be harvesting this beautiful thing. The buds are just now booming however, so I plan on waiting as long as possible.

wyattwelding101 Lol you're really far away buddy I am only week or 2 out check out my development to compare. Best way to watch trichomes develop to milky and pistils to curl back and turn color
Xander Kaliyuga How much longer do you think? Mine went from amber sites to milky fat buds.
wyattwelding101 There's different flower times for every strain it's so hard to gauge, mine looked like yours almost 7 weeks ago so maybe that's a way to gauge how long?

Here’s my nutrients and food. Haven’t touched the molasses yet, as I don’t know my way around it just yet. Any information provided would be appreciated. 🫠 (also I added some greensand before top dressing.
5 months ago
the_cannabisgod The molasses shows no benefits besides feeding the micro biomes in your soil and should be unsulferd molasses I like too use it in my living soil but only use it twice in flower or 3 times don’t always feed it do it every 6 watering or so mix 1 tablespoons per gallon of water
Xander Kaliyuga It is unsulfured. So is it just rumor or does it actually do anything to enhance the overall flavor/smoke of the plant?? I’m getting mixed reviews on it. I heard it’s best to do it within the last 2 weeks during supposed “flush” but I can’t get a straight answer . 😕
the_cannabisgod And as for your nutrients your next run id go with down too earth nutrients there 484 and 444 are literally so easy and on the cheaper side and that’s basically all you’ll need they sell natural basically everything pair that up with some oyster shell and coco and worm casting and you’ll be on the right track maybe even a little perlite

dlw if the walls inside your cupboard are white, it’ll be better to take down the silver tarp as the white wall will reflect more light towards the plant (the silver colour absorbs a percentage of the light rays from your light)

Don’t know what color ratio the lights should be.. just seeing what works best. Giving them a 18/6 light cycle. Picked up calcium and Epsom salt for plants.. wondering when I should start adding them.

Xander Kaliyuga Thanks man!! It’s called Shiskaberry! Afghan x Blueberry. Quantity and quality over everything!! 🌺💪🏻😎
RoMag XK: I love the fact that it is 100% Indica. I just do Indica. The effects are just better for me physically. I like the “quantity and quality” approach to this grow.

Got it going now. Cleaned their space out. Bumped up light wattage. Switching between red lights, bloom setting and blurple light. It becomes almost natural instinct knowing to switch between full spectrum and just bloom lights. Iykyk. Thank you so so much @Rastaman, I couldn’t have done much of this without your knowledge!

Noticing some calmag def. and had to neem the plants, spider mites or clover mites were infesting them.. other than that, average beginner damage for my first 2 plants. Im sure it happened because I added some happy frog soil as the soil was getting pretty low. Didn’t want to overwater so I ended up under-watering it due to the raising the soil bedding. Whatever works! 😄

Haven’t posted in another while, I’m really inconsistent. Anyway, here’s the girls. First grow, fair reminder. First month, switching up feeding to 2tb microflora, floramicro, and microbloom per gallon. 6 gallon feed for this month, 2gal./week. Also 1tb/gal. of cal-mag added to this recipe.

LST in progress, no material needed, just consistent bending and flexing, with no resistance. They seem to be very playful during aggressive veg.. any tips on what I could do to bond a little more with these beauty’s, I will take into consideration. Do not hesitate to shoot me pointers as long as they are reasonable for my Shiskaberry autos..🙂↕️

Rastaman 2.0 When they are about 3 weeks 21-23 days you try to do like I do with the stem and bend her check my logs you will have an idea. And bro I started with purple lights but they don’t get healthy lights so the plant will grow faster and yield more it grow but on a slower pace. If you are growing just 2 plants get a mars hydro ts 600 I use mars hydro and plants love it there are many good lights for good price on amazone to.other than that they look great 💯 if you have discord add me on it and you can dm me ask any question💯👊🏾
Xander Kaliyuga Awesome, what is your discord man?? I follow from seed to stoned but that’s the only person I have that’s reliable..

Sooo, had them outside for good ol’ natural sunlight. Big mistake because I started mowing the lawn and some debris flew and took the tip of a fan leaf off.. took care of the dead hanging end.. not much damage was further inflicted.. should’ve listened. Besides that, all good IMO, let me know how you think I’m doing so far..😅😅 (also, no pests have been reported. I only keep them out there for a certain amount of hours and only during days bright and beautiful. Also have some greenhouse tents that keeps any pest out while I keep them nice, cool, and at the perfect humidity throughout the daytime while outside.. I just didn’t have them on today during the mow because I’m an idiot.)

cal98 Mighty fine job there ladies keep growing also I would cover the soil with like a styrofoam plate just to keep wanted bugs from digging in if your leaving outside
SpacemanGrows Cal mentioned my only concern here. Some do it, but I’m not a fan of bringing a plant in and out. Pests can, and IMO, will come in with it. Otherwise it’s looking good. Keep up the good work 👍🏻
