No, im not sure what the dark edges are since i'm a first timer but ill get there. I noticed the rot on the inside of the bud while doing some inspecting so I pulled it off of the stalk itself. And as for humidity, I have no clue sorry. This is an outside grow.

@Budley Doright
Tomorrow 8/25/2017 will make 16 weeks since sprout.
And total time since flowering is 6 weeks so far.
My NL went through quite a bit of stress in the beginning idk if that resulted in a stunted growth or lower yield. If you guys would like any more info on the NL feel free to ask and ill provide any information at the best of my knowldge and id also like to say thx again in advance for taking the time to help a newb out. :)

16 weeks??? That seems like a long time for an auto. Who's the breader? And nope not bud rot in the leaves. Every one of the plants I grew developed rot. I just finished up a auto blue mazar grow that is pretty good for an outdoor auto grow. It takes a lot for me to be impressed and I was impressed, again "for an auto" lol.

yea anywhere from 14-16 weeks, i know it seems like a long time but at the beginning of the grow she was only getting like 2-3 hours of sunlight which i know is not good at all. Thats why i mentioned she's been put through alot of stress in her life time and im not sure if that resulted in a stunted growth. But as you said you would give it a bit more time so ill take that advice into consideration. Im pretty sure the breeder is Pyramid seeds if thats what you mean.

If you see hardly any clear, mostly cloudy and a few amber it's a good time to harvest.
You might be able to let your plants flower a few days to a week more or so, but I wouldn't let them flower more than that if you are seeing mostly cloudy a few amber.

You can leave some of the smaller leaves (sugar leaves) on the buds.
These leaves can help avoid a too quick dry and they can also add some good properties to your buds (flavour etc.).
But it's a preference call, if you prefer without leaves, do it that way, just make sure you don't dry too quickly (you want a dry period of ~6-7 days (slow & steady)).

I am in a very dry climate, I don't see my drying period lasting more than 5 days max. How important is slowly drying them and how can I prolong that period? I feel like having a humidifier is counterproductive

Try hanging the whole plant & keeping temps low?

Drying and curing ime, is just as important to the end result as the entire grow.

I'd wait a week or two before any further judgment, what is it? @HazednConfused

A double dream clone, day 54; it's said to be a 56 day strain.
Yeah, man my cobs are like 6" from my tops.
I cant move them up any further, height is already maxed out in my cab. I guess they're too intense at 200watts.
I'll probably dim to 150 watts or less next run, and scrog my box out super low.
Thanks bro.

Depends what you prefer - cannot be sure unless you scope the tri's. I would think once the purple that is showing on the top cola starts a bit lower, you will be around peak T

You could attempt training the plant and running the same power level, for a 200watt draw thats not bad at all for a single dom cola plant.

Did you build the panel or buy it?

While I've never ran double dream yet that one looks pretty good, looks like the fruity/sweet stuff i like to run lol, i save all that for myself lmao..

It's finishing up, shouldn't be long from here. I second the scope that bullsnot talked about, especially if your going to run that pheno again.

That's good to know that's it's not too powerful; I'm assuming my PAR at my tops level is pretty good, lol.
I built the panel with 4 CXM22s, a 240 54b meanwell, and a dimmer.
Bro, it's definitely that! I've been telling myself that this is my private reserve bud, since I'm not going to pull a whole lot off of the plant and it's fruity/sticky as hell.
Yeah, thanks for the rec on the trich check. I have a 60x mini scope that I've been using. There's definitely a bunch of cloudy trichs with amber ones scattered in there, on the cola area. They get less cloudy and amber as you go down the plant.
No way am I cutting this girl early, lol. A week or two more is fine with me.
Thanks again bro.
