Looking good, flowering time is my favorite time.

Yeah I was hoping all three would finish at the same time, but the two smaller plants just started showing pistils a few days ago. The largest plants started showing pistils almost two weeks ago! I really wanted to dry the plants in the tent once they’re finished.

I’ve found that sometimes it’s nice to harvest them together even if one or two are ahead or behind others. That way you get a better idea of which you like better. Some people swear by harvesting a bit early, others a bit late. Try both and choose for yourself!

Hey that’s a super good idea! It is my first grow after all, so trying different levels of finish would inform the next run.

Here’s a little update on my little ladies. They seem to be doing well except for the one on the far right. That plant suffered the most from the heat stress and some of her leaves continue to have burnt tips and edges. I defoliated the dead and mostly burned leaves.

Also, my soil will be quickly running out of nutrients so I have ordered the AN PH perfect trio which I plan to use with Happy Frog during my next run.

Thanks for the tag. Set to watch. Looks like I have a little catching up to do.

The grow is looking good!

My guess for the three plants is 6.5 oz.

Dry ammendments I use are kelp meal, alfalfa meal, langbeinite, seabird guano, fish bone meal, fish meal. The last two ate pretty stinky. Compost is something I add regularly as well.

The plants are all doing well and healthy! A beautiful shade of green. I’m currently suffering from growers remorse, wishing I had done so many things differently.

I know I’m jumping the gun here, but the more mature of the three plants looks like she will finish at least a couple WEEKS ahead of the other two. As I had mentioned in a previous post, I was planning to dry the ladies in the tent. I still might be able to accomplish that with two of the plants. My question: if I don’t have a closet or space to keep dark, where and how can/should I dry the single plant? I obviously would like to maintain as much flavor and potency as possible.

I actually dry my plants in my bathroom. Move as needed for showering. My bathroom also has no windows so its ideal for drying. Plus its the only place in the house where I can hang 7 feet tall plants. :+1:

You could even fab a small drying space out of cardboard box and a pc fan.

I mentioned the bathroom idea to my wife and she gave me a hard no! Haha

:point_up_2: is what I was going to say. I’ve put a fan on a milk crate facing up and use cardboard. You may have to piece together and seal with duct tape

Would you guys happen to have any pics or drawings of successful box setups? I have plenty of cardboard and plywood, and I have two 4” desk fans

Google or YouTube, both have examples.

Another option is to harvest them together, even if it’s a bit early for one or a hair late for another. That’s what I usually do. I had read that harvesting a bit early tends to give the buds more of a Sativa effect, while letting them get a bit over ripe can give them more of a couch lock Indica type high. Honestly, I haven’t found much difference either way just yet.

This is what I’d do, but we’re talking about a BIG box. Like a mini-fridge or larger.

I just use my home gym room as my drying room, running a humidifier to keep RH above 50 to slow down the dry.
