Those look great. Are they 70 days from sprout? And what strain auto flower is that? I don’t have any advice as I am a novice farmer. Thanks
if your still seeing some clear i’d say 2weeks maybe 3 it takes as long as it takes unfortunately

Thanks @SourD ! Actually, in the group photo the one on the left is 70 days from sprout. The 2 on the right are around 50 days. These are called Light of Jah, purchased from a competitor before I found this site.
How they looking mate
The oldest one got yanked last week at 11 weeks. I got about 3/4 oz. dry.
These below will be 10 weeks on Thursday. Yes it got a bit buggy. I say NUKE’M!
The one on the left should yield more. It was bent over awhile back. Those tiny ones popped way back on 4/20. They have suffered greatly…

How did you dry and cure it? In a jar?
Begs a question. Does the top of the plant mature first or the bottom? I’ve been looking at the trichomes on the top .
I cut the branches, washed them (do a search on bud washing). I did that mainly to get the remaining DE off as well as bug poop, etc. I then hung them in my shed with a fan directed at them. I think they dried too quickly because it got kind of hot. After 4 days when they felt dry I put the buds in a ceramic canister. I will say it smells really “green”. Maybe I left too many leaves on. Not sure. As far as curing, I don’t think I’ll have any left by the time it’s cured…
Good stuff!

Due to the intensity of light the upper buds will ripen faster then the lower buds.
So how did it all turn out?

Sorry for the late response. All in all a successful first grow. 4 plants (out of 10) matured. I got about 3/4oz. from each. I’ve tried multiple times to start a new crop but there’s just too much heat and not enough humidity. I may have to wait until September…

Did you wash the bud? How did that go?
Any pictures of right before harvest? Thanks
The pics above are right before harvest. I let the small one on the right go another couple weeks. So these went 10-12 weeks total.
I didn’t get scientific on the wash. A 5 gal. bucket of water. Swished branches in water and shook them off.

This is how I do it @SourD don’t usually do the peroxide though i’m not sure if it’s my location but I also found out that when I do this they dry faster for me
