Hi, I've never grown anything in my life and have started a small indoor grow. Girl Scout Cookie auto and Bruce Banner auto. Both were feminized seeds purchased from ILGM.
I started with a 2x4 tent from yield labs, but it ended up being too short, so I upgraded to a spider farmer 2x4 that's about 6.5ft tall.
The light I used is a Spider Farmer SF2000. I'm also using an AC Infinity Cloudline T6 inline fan with ducting going into an AC Infinity Air Carbon Filter for odor control.
Seeds were germinated in moist paper towels between two paper plates in a dark closet.
Both were planted in Foxfarms Ocean Forest soil.
Seeds went into soil on 10/12/21.
I used a small amount of Foxfarms Tiger Bloom for about two weeks on the GSC, and I'm using the Tiger Bloom and Big Bloom on Bruce Banner during the 8th/9th weeks because Bruce is going much much slower than GSC.
I am trying to determine when to harvest the GSC, and I think it might be time now. I purchased a jeweler's loupe, but it's hard to tell whether I'm seeing more than a few amber heads on the trichomes. I have taken several pictures with my phone, but can't get a great up close view on whether the GSC is ready to harvest.
I've also had some leaf issues with the Bruce Banner, and I'm not sure how to fix it.
Any tips on harvesting the GSC and how to help Bruce Banner get back to health would be great. I think I'm going to let Bruce keep going for another month because he's just starting to thicken up now, but I'm not sure if hIs buds are going to ever get as big as the GSC.
tl;dr
Is it time to harvest the GSC? Will Bruce get bigger buds? How do I fix Bruce? Let me know what you guys think.
