I've just viewed to samplings of buds under a microscope. I would say that 98% of the trichomes I viewed are cloudy. Only a few of them have turned amber. the hairs haven't really begun to change color though. Only a very small percentage are brown. Is it time for me to harvest?

I've read that you can use Big Bloom all the way through harvest. Does this apply to buds?

What are the characteristics of the so-called white strains? When their flowers are mature, are the pistils still white or can you expect them to change color like other strains?

That's my point. A plant in nature gets plenty of light from the moon and keeps right on flowering. I found several articles of the internet that explain various theories about the effect of the moon on plants in general. Most talk about the gravitational force exerted upon the Earth at...

But in nature a plant is not in complete darkness. And I've read from various sources that plants grown outdoors are superior to those grown indoors.

I am well aware of the source from which moonlight comes, but that doesn't answer my question.

Just curious if anyone knows if moonlight is actually beneficial to the plants, especially during the flowering stage. If so, is there some kind of artificial moonlight that could be used in an indoor set up?

Which is better? If you opt for foliar feeding, does that bypass the problem of nutrient lock in the soil?

I have a question about the Foxfarm chart. It suggests feeding every other watering. Can you mix the two together into one gallon, meaning take one gallon of water and put 2 tablespoons of Tiger and 1 tbl. of Big? or do they need to be put into separate containers?

Has anyone ever used FoxFarm's Tiger Boom? If so, any good?

It gets at least seven, maybe even eight hours of direct sunlight per day. The sun is so intense in the middle of the day, I put screening material above it so it cuts down on the intensity a little bit. It still gets totally direct sunlight in the morning and late afternoon/early evening...

So the outdoor plant is flowering like crazy - in June!. Starting to glisten with trichs too. It started to flower in early May and was originally planted in April. I thought at some point the plant would revert to vegetative cycle, but it hasn't. My guess is that it will continue to flower...

I estimate that my plant has been flowering for at least seven weeks. I started it outside where, to my surprise, it was bursted with young flowers. We were approaching summer and longer days, so I decided to get a light and bring it inside and start a 12/12 cycle. I did that for about five...

Thanks. That answers my question. :mrgreen:

Obviously it is ideal to pick a just the right time, depending on personal taste and all that. But what's worse to do, picking too early or picking too late?

My plant is just about ready for harvest. I've snipped off a small bud that I'd like to test out. What's the best way to flash dry the bud so I can test out the potency?

Generally speaking, if a freshly harvested bud weighs 8 grams, how much will it weigh when it is properly dried?

My plant is about 5 weeks into flowering. The larger leaves are turning yellow. Is this cause for concern or is it normal? I've been giving it a 10-15-10 plant food once a week.

I ask this question about my outdoor plant. It's already covered in white pistils, but the days are getting longer and threaten to force my plant back into vegatation. I want to bring it in to start a 12 hour light cycle in order to get it to fully flower. This strain has an eight week...

Just wondering what is considered the first day of the flowering cycle. Is it when the pistils first appear on the plant?
