Hey yea I'm alright. The plants are looking great. I apologize, I've been very busy with my new job. Just trying to stay focused now but my babies should be ready soon. And no signs of hermies!!
The shade cloth around my plants keeps it pretty dark. I had an issue with some bamboo dust and last night I saw some spider mites. I plan to do a bud wash on this plant after harvest but I also washed them last night. It gets pretty hot during the day so they should dry off on their own. I'll post up some more pictures this weekend. View attachment 4205223

cool, good to hear you're ok, looking foward to seeing your harvest!

Hey guys need your opinions whether or not I should harvest this plant. This isn't my main plant but its dying in random places all around the plant. It's not mushy, just dry. So I don't think its bud rot. It also has these white bugs in it. Should I harvest it now before it all goes bad? It has a very strong funk to it so I dont want to end up throwing it all away. Was looking forward to tasting that funk too haha.

My baby. She should be ready soon. I'm planning on harvesting later on this week.

Harvested a little branch from my baby for a friend last week.

yes those bugs are almost certainly the culprits, try to squish as many as you can, there are some sprays that can kill them but you may find it hard to obtain in the Kingdom, if you can find a garden supply place & purchase anything with its active ingredient containing 'spinosad' it will control those bugs, spinosad is a bacteria that when eaten by the bugs will rot out the inside of the bugs(not harmful to humans)
the 2 below contain spinosad, there are others that contain it that maybe available in the Kingdom

yes its hard to tell sometimes with sativa when to harvest...seems like a person will die of old age before they are ready ha, thats why i like sativa/indica crosses, shorter flowering times, hope they fit the bill for what your looking for there!

I thought she would be ready but I see some new pistils showing so I guess I'll leave her for a couple more weeks haha. I've been cutting stems off here and there for friends but it seems I must have cut about half my plant already haha. I've dried and cured a nug and I'm enjoying it over this weekend haha.

This picture below is the funky plant I got. Man it's a beautiful funk haha. Real fruity. Like mangoes and pineapples haha. The bugs are all gone now. I washed the plant with some water and when I checked again the bugs were all dead. Must be something in the water haha.

Well guys I finally did it. I cut her down. Beautiful. I've been smoking her everyday and I feel like it was finally time. I gave her a good wash and now Imma let her dry for the night and get rid of the extra water. Then into the dry room for a while.

This plant was infested and dying in random spots all over so I decided to cut her down also. She used to have that funk but it seems to have gone away. So sad. She was a huge plant though but the buds were very small and skinny. Maybe get some edibles if I cant smoke it haha.

The stem was beautiful.

The random dry spots everywhere and the white bugs where back. Probably the babies.

Beautiful stem haha.

Up drying.

Well guys I still have more plants but for my first main one I am pretty proud of her. She looks good, smells lovely and gets me lit haha. I can see the difference a little low stress training does. I have a couple plants that I let grow on it's own and they are small. These are huge and my other one that just started flowering is like 6 feet tall and that's with training haha. My next goal is to start cloning. But I'll keep you guys updated with the drying and curing.

One of my plants that I left to grow naturally on it's own. Big difference that a little low stress training has. One small plant that smells great vs a huge plant that smells great haha.
