okay well i am almost into week 6 of flowering. I have no clue what strain/type this plant is. was a random bag seed. i bought a little 60-100x microscope. My some of my trichomes are clear, foggy, and a few amber looking. so i don't know when to harvest. for a first time grower, i want to do it right. any tips?

Think another week ready to harvest?

used an old cell phone charger, the one i have has an USB plug in, but im pretty sure any will work. it wont run at high speeds like on a pc. but does enough.

i figured out a simple thing to do. going to put a hold on the top of my over head, exhaust for heat with a 120mm pc fan.

going to put 2 120mm fans on the side with one on the back top. i dont grow trees so this will work perfect. going to line the inside with reflective then should be set.

So I harvest I ended up with 75g wet. That is .3g/w which is normal from what I've read. Got it drying in a shoebox hanging in the shoe box in a cooler area temp prob 60-70 tops. Hope to get. 50g when dry. Going to cure for 3 weeks before I even try it. Open the jar 1-2 times a week foe fresh air and reduce the chances of mold
Will add pic tonight

I guess you lose like 75% weight when drying. You should get close to an ounce.
That's pretty good man:)

it doesn't really have much of a smell. but then again the plant never really had a strong smell. maybe after the cure it will get a good smell?? idk but then again it was some random seed that was sitting on top of my frig for months. im excited to smoke it!

looking good and getting dry, almost 3 days now of drying. and its down to 28.3 grams now. which is about right. think another day or so drying and it will be ready to cure. it wasn't drying that fast in the box so i am going to put in brown paper bag and put shredded layers on top of it. for a day then it should be ready to cure in jars.

smoked a small bit today, still a little to wet. got a decent head change off that little bit. taste was something else, was tasty ;) cant wait for the final cured bud
