GDP Almost There?...

I suppose a great question and I had to stop and think about it. Yes, mostly upper pieces that were easier to reach.

Those will always be more "done" before the lower buds. Also, wind, light and heat stress can make trichomes appear done when they aren't. Especially true for upper buds. That would suck if you pulled a plant because the top was done, but the bottom wasn't. Or the outside trichomes looked done, but the inside of the bud wasn't.

In a sense, a loupe can make it difficult to see the big picture to an inexperienced eye.

We're putzing along with this GDP. This plant was watered just yesterday. First grow (mother plant) was good but chopped too early at 102 days from seed. This one I have no idea while some tell me if was ready a week ago and others say not quite ready. I've only recently learned and been paying more attention to pistils changing colors no matter what week I'm on. Captured some trich pics below.View attachment 5132336View attachment 5132337View attachment 5132338View attachment 5132339View attachment 5132340View attachment 5132341View attachment 5132342View attachment 5132343

Not even close to ready, recheck in another 3 weeks.

I really need to wrap up this thread as it went from first time grower to Mother plant and clone babies. These plants couldn't even stand on their own anymore. Chopped it all down after going longer than the first grow. Will update dry weight and pics soon!

Another 3 weeks would put the plants into week 15 flower. I'm no longer interested in growing any strain that takes up to 15 weeks in flower? I know, already been told to forget the calendar and days gone by when determining chop date. As it turns out, I do mind waiting 15 weeks to finish flower stage. Geezus!
Looking forward to new strains man. Already popped a few other seeds. Looking forward to determining which go into grow #3.

Sometimes the best, can take the longest.

We hung it for an hour and I went ahead and threw this out as well. Really strong scents though! Couple of experienced growers agreed these needed at least another 3 weeks pushing them into week 15 flower. I do believe with at least 3 more wks to go, it would of been shit to smoke at this stage anyway. Autoflowers are looking more and more attractive. I had been so opposed to autos that I don't even know what strains are available. Any suggestions from experienced Auto growers message me with your easy to grow favorites! :)

Why autos they take just as long to flower the only side is you have no control over when it's starts to flower. Looks like growing weed isn't your thing.

Yeah, pretty obvious at this point...

Just ran out of my first run of purchased seeds from Rocketseeds (Dotcom)
Since I started my first grow October of last year, I practiced on a few plants.
Unsure what direction to take in regards to growing, what seeds to order next, and what I'll do different on next grow.
Currently germinating some Jack H and today a Cereal Milk seed popped. Not sure if the Mendo B clone will make it.
Here's a pic of Cereal Milk grown from a seed I found in an 1/8th I bought a while back. I have no idea what will come of this plant but will try to help it along.
Back to the seed providers, I'm guessing I should place an order with Humboldt? A real authority that's been around for a while!
Any suggestions? Thank You in advance :)

It's not the strains fault. They don't know week 9 from 15. It's your fault. It will keep happening until you get your shit together.

Damn....I didn't know I sucked at it that bad. But hey, got called out for a reason I'm sure. I'm practically a plant killer on another forum. And I thought I was doing better than that.

Howdy Blueberrymilkshake! Thank You for believing in me and I BELIEVE IN YOU AND YOUR SAGE ADVICE. Third grow will be in oven until it's frickin' done. Not even setting up seedlings for next veg tent while next grow moves into flower. I will not be rushed or distracted by anything at all. Will post those strains on another thread once plants are in flower. Will add link here when it's posted. And we're gonna ride and drive, like we stole that big ole' F***n' Princess Ganja Patience bus right down the middle of that desert highway! And that's what's gonna happen here. Will return in a few weeks with greenery pics.
And a big shout out to Lordhooha, Hollatchaboy, and twentyeight.threefive. Thank You for your input! Will put it to work on upcoming grow.

The breeder times are real close, just watch your plants for the first 7 to 14 days and see when flowers start to pop and flower starts for real. Then countdown starts.

My comment "threw this one out" had some picturing a dumpster of sorts. I've responded elsewhere and pasting response here:

I gave it away. In good hands to dry/cure and will sample later. There was a lot of flower! Will get dry weight, off branches, before curing. While we've been a cancer patient household for last six years, I know others in similar treatment who benefit from it.

From another forum and same discussion:
