Haven't updated for a while, as I've been bed-bound for the past 2 weeks. A drinking injury which turned bad, and I'm now probably going to be suffering for the next few weeks more. So my girls have been left pretty much untended for 2 weeks, with just a bit of water here and there. They have suffered a little, but they're doing ok.
I actually think that there may be longer to go than expected. I think the amber I'm seeing is a false positive, so I'm leaving them all at least another week more, probably two for the largest, which are still sending out foxtails and new pistils.
I picked a few small buds a week ago, but after trying a few taster buds and getting nothing off them at all I definitely thought that more time was needed. I probably dried them all a bit too quickly, but I should still have got something.
I've got a few small buds left that have been hanging for 5 days but are still pretty wet. Even though the test buds are tiny, they're very dense. I've got some room temp quick dry, which is nearly ready to test. But I reckon they were just picked way too early to be potent.
The bud in the last pic is from the plant in the left back corner, which was vegged for only 3 weeks, so has fewer branches, but has some decent looking buds fattening up now...
