No I followed bad advice, instead of reading the plants. Maybe stop feeding bloom nutes at week 6, but it needs the base nutes all the way through, just maybe tapered at the end, once harvest is getting close. This is my own experience, not something I read on the internet.

Can I get a whole plant pic by chance? If you quit feeding nutes at 6 weeks, which is 42 days, 56 if you go from first flower, they should be dead.

Nah I corrected my mistake and tapered the nutes back up, if I hadn't they probably would be, but its looking like I saved them long enough to finish.

Pic is of my whole tent. 4 plants in total, bottom left to right Critical Mass, White Widow, top left to right Purple Trainwreck, Northern Lights. Only one unphased by my mistake is the Purple Trainwreck, that bitch is a beast.

That's nice but that train wreck has the longest flowering time of all of them and it's only 90-100 days max.

So either you mean Jan 1, or you have the longest flowering plants in history.

Nice plants though.

My jack 47 and dinachem were said to go 9-10 weeks. All phenos of both strains needed atleast 85-90 days. Pulled a bit early. The jacks could have went 95 easy. Breeders can be way off

Let’s hope not. For the green crack and white widow, I would assume their flowering periods are fairly well known... or am I wrong?

As for the other two, Crown Royale and the OG kush/haze, they are cross breeds, so I just hope it’s under 10 weeks.

They're done when they're done. You'll see the buds swell and the pistils recede. Once you notice them slow down drinking, you're in the last week or days.

Oh yeah, I’m not going to rush them or anything.

What do you suggest for initial drying? I was going to just use the tent, but my plants are probably going to be done at different times.

Anywhere dark with humidity between 40-60% is ideal.

Well, I don't know what's in any of them lol. I see the ratios, but ingredients are more important to me.

Just looking, off the top of my head, the micro, bloom, and maybe the big bud depending on what's in it. The molasses isn't really going to do anything if you aren't feeding microbes that the others won't do.

Or, the micro and the Canna PK.

I've never used any of them though, so you're better to ask someone who has or follow the feed chart. You're doing good now. If you just stay on track and then at 2 weeks out, one last feed half strength, then just water.

You're a fucking retard and you actually diminish the experience of being here.

HUR DUR and here's the idiot who was telling you to stop feeding at 8 weeks. Don't listen to these people. Tag me when you get 3-4 oz per plant like I said.

I always thought that was too low, that you had higher chance of Mold/mildew.

I’m growing in a cold storage room, and it’s usually in the 60’s, maybe I’ll just dry them in a big box in there?

Well, you usually harvest in fall outdoors unless you do a spring run and people would just hang them outside.

I run a small fan for circulation, but the denser the bud, the less water gets in and the more it pushes out, so less chance of mold with solid buds.

With slightly more airy buds like sativas, warmer is better since that's where they grow anyway, and the warmth evaporates most of the water in the buds.

So, take from that what you will. Safe bet if you are worried would be 70s or a little better with a light breeze.
