My bubblegum and berry autos have been growing in containers outside in full sunlight for about 70 days. The trichomes have turned from mostly cloudy to milky white in the past week. I posted some pictures of the trichomes. Do these look ready to harvest or should I give them another week to...

I DO care and am interested in the yield for my autos, I just don't have a need for the large yields that regular full size plants produce, which is one of the reasons I was attracted to growing the autos. I know that a lot of people don't like the autos because they produce less and feel it's a...

I took off a small sugar leaf, placed on the a white hard surface outside in the sunlight as Hushpuppy suggested. Great advise! I was able to focus and see the trichromes really well! That big round magnifier glass with the handle is what I am looking for. Haven't seen any with with a strong...

Can't you just copy and paste the youtube link into a post like you would on FB or in an email? I do that all the time. The embed code won’t work, it is the code for embedding the video into a webpage.

What variety of autos are you growing? I choose some of the smallest and dwarf size autos I could find for several reasons….. I live in suburbia where houses are close and my backyard is really small. However being an avid gardener, I have landscaped it to be secluded from sight. I grow a...

Can you use the leaves for making tincture?

I a Bubblegum and a Berry uto-flowering that are about 4 weeks behind the Top44 and AK47. Both look look really great! Lots of buds and good branching, like the Top44, Neither are real strong smelling and they are both a little over a foot tall. They seem very happy too. I am germinating...

Then again, this is the first time I have ever looked at trichomes on a plant. I have only seen pictures online and youtube of what the trichomes are supposed to look like. I spent a couple hours trying to look at the trichomes to determine that what I was seeing was what they are supposed to...

I guess i will be harvesting those two girls in a day or two. I could see pretty well with the iphone micro lens attachment and they looked pretty close to be ready to me. I will pick up jewelers loupe tomorrow. Hopefully it will work better for me then the one from Radio Shack with the light!

I keep reading that auto-flowering is a whole different beast. This being my very first time to grow and putting them outside all day in the sun and inside in at night, I have been quite happy watching the progress of these plants grow! The Top44 has grown and branched out fast and loaded with...

Even with some of the trichomes still a bit clear? Most appeared cloudy and halfway milky the other day when I posted the picture.

I don't expect large buds or yields from these auto-flowering plants and that is ok with me. I choose auto-flowering because of the compact size, the short life cycle, I can use smaller containers for easy mobility up and down stairs and I can have 2 harvest outside during the warm season. This...

This plant is about 90 days old now. It started flowering at 4 weeks. It is supposed to be from 60 - 80 days from planting to harvest. So I know it should be getting close. I am figuring another couple weeks, I guess it will be determined by the amount of sunny warm weather we get in the next...

I will give a 40x jewelers loupe a try and I will also take off a sugar leave near the bud and place it on stable surface outside. I'm sure that I will eventually find something that will work well for me.

I've seen a lot of those on amazon Hamster, but how are they compared to the Radio Shack one? I can really see well and lot of trichomes at once time with the iphone micro lens attachment, but not sure if the magnification is powerful enough. I don't know what the power is and I like that there...
