    Curing - 1 full jar or 2 half full jars?

    I just harvested my first plant. I read to keep the jars 75% full, but unfortunately I have to either keep 1 jar 100% full or 2 jars 50% full. Which is the better option?

    First Harvest - curing question

    They don't seem moist or stick together. Better to do 2 half filled rather than 1 full filled?

    First Harvest - curing question

    Hi everyone. I harvested my first plant and let it dry for 3-4 days and it was ready to go in the mason jars. Half of the buds snapped right off and the other half bent a little bit. When I put in mason jars I can either put it all in 1 jar to the very top, or half fill 2 mason jars. Which is...

    Just harvested. Found spider mites. Best way to sterilize?

    Just like the title says - I harvested today and found some dreaded spider mites and webbing at the top of my 2 biggest colas. I sucked them up with a shopvac, but now that I trimmed the buds what kind of bath would be best? Hydrogen peroxcide? Lemon juice/baking soda? I want to sterilize the...

    Harvest Question

    Those buds look pretty fat. Get a microscope and check the trichomes to be sure they are ready.

    Harvest Question

    Ok. I was hoping if they crawled down the stem they would die in the DE that's on the top of the soil. I'll do that though.

    Harvest Question

    It's just the one plant. I somewhat isolated it from the others in the tent, took off some of the bigger fan leaves that had these bastards and their eggs, and put diatomaceous earth on top of the soil. Any other non-harmful natural tips?

    Is that safe for me right now? Or am I out of luck?

    Harvest Question

    So I checked and the trichomes are still clear. So I have more time than I thought. I feel like these bastards are all over me! Should I use neem oil? Trim off the leaves? Something else? I wonder if it was the earthworm castings I recently topped the soil with.

    Harvest Question

    no webbing that can be seen by the naked eye, but under a microscope you can see some webbing on the leaves. i saw 3 mites on 1 leaf, but haven't seen any others (i looked at 6-7 other leaves). One plant has leaf damage - all along i thought they were trichomes on the leaves, but apparently they...

    Harvest Question

    Interesting. Well I just looked at a few colas under a 60x microscope and almost puked when i saw spider mites crawling around! Being so close to harvest what should I do?

    Harvest Question

    So I can cut off and dry the 2 branches that are ready? It won't stress the plant too much?

    Harvest Question

    Hi everyone. I'm getting pretty close to harvest. It seems the branches that originate closest to the bottom of the plant are maturing the fastest. What should I do if the 2 lowest branches are ready for harvest, but the rest still need another 1-2wks?

    Getting close to harvest. Top leaves purple.

    Thanks. The middle plant has been grown completely organic. Because this has been my first grow, I tried a few different things on different plants.

    Getting close to harvest. Top leaves purple.

    Interesting. I'm growing black jack, ice, and papaya right now. They all say 7-9wks, but I'm in no rush. Here is a pic of the 3 of them.

    Getting close to harvest. Top leaves purple.

    It's 50 days from flip. I topped them off with earthworm castings for some extra food. How much more time do you think I have?

    Getting close to harvest. Top leaves purple.

    Hi everyone. I did a full organic grow and the plant just hit day 50 of flower. The top leaves have yellowed and purpled over the past week or so. Is this ok? Should I give nutes, or this close to harvest should I not worry about anything and keep giving plain water?

    Thanks! Yeah I only have 2-3 weeks left. It's a full organic grow so don't really need to flush.
