I'd guess you have a couple ounces there.
A micro cfl nl#5 harvest log
- Thread starter growone
- Start date
Day 64 of 12/12. When I opened this log, figured maybe 7-10 days then harvest. It's becoming something of a 'weed soap opera', it's just not ripening. I do see that some good sources list thai sativa being in the gentics of nl#5. That might make some sense with how long it's taking me to get to the end.
Better plant pic, almost does it justice, but there are limits with the camera i've got. The tric picture is really something, looks almost like a mirror surface, clear trics are far as the eye can see. Maybe a cloudy 1 or 2 in the bunch.

she looks awesome especially for 72watts i jus aquired a 4 x 250w hood cant wait to put that into work. v inspiring
Day 66 of 12/12. I believe the time has come. Found a number of amber trics today. Not a lot, but definitely a jump in total. Clear amber, not dark amber.
Thing is, clear trics still seem to be the majority. Some cloudy, but hard to judge just how big a percent. No more than 50%, probably less. I'm just too leary of getting a total couch lock out of this bud.
So plant(main cola actually), here's the deal. If RIU speaks up, your execution will be delayed. If not, well then, tonight is it. I leave the pictures as the last testimonial.

I had a similar drama unfold with my setup... I can tell now... only after having gone through it that trichs are pretty hard to read.... your pics are enough to at least get a read on these guys though. I just tuned into this thread today and your patience has paid off, if you had harvested as early as you originally thought you would not have had nearly as nice of results as you're going to have now. I also used flourescents for my setup (as heat was an issue for me) and found that using the flourescents significantly lengthened the amount of time past "book" that these took to fully ripen. Good luck.... I look forward to takin a look at your final results in a few weeks!
great response - very useful - i suspected the fluoro's were stretching my maturity times, fantastic to hear from someone who's gone through it too
another grower 'talked me down' on my grow log - helped me not be so freaked out from a tiny bit of amber tric
+rep for great info

Don't do it!!! Lol lookin real close get a little sample nug off er and quick dry it see how she smokes and go from there.
don't worry erkel - i've been talked down off the roof, so to speak
it's not done - though i keep trying to talk myself into whacking her
+rep to both you guys for the looks and help
Day 68 of 12/12. It's still a 'crystal palace' with the trics. A lot of clear
Am seeing more clear amber trics. Looks like more of these amber than cloudy. Talk it over with a few growers on another thread, these ambers may not mean too much yet.
I'm just as wary of harvesting an indica too early as too late. I've seen plenty of growers talk about 'racy' indicas if you harvest with too much clear.
So I wait for a while longer. Maybe all this stressing over harvest is a sign to let it amber up, take the edge off my high strung personality.
Pics as usual. The main cola has reached the soda can stage, woo woo!

Look at the size of that main cola, it looks great, don't rush to smoke it though, I know it is hard but try to dry and cure it properly. Not saying you cant break off a little piece but don't waste what you have before it has finished properly
I've sworn an oath not to touch that baby until a 1 week dry(more or less) and a 3 week cure. Make do with the trimmings made into hash oil.
Need all the good quality cured bud until the next harvest, which will hopefully be a revegged/flowered grow from this plant. Clone if the reveg goes poorly.

snip a few small nugs now and do a water cure for 7 days, that way next week after your buds dry out for a few hours, you can get rizziped. it might be nice to have some weed that isnt a total burn out .
also flush this shit out of your soil!
