Greetings,
I am new at growing and need some advise! I planted 4 germinated Feminized auto-flowering seedlings the second week in March.
After many months of research, I used Fox Farm Ocean Forest soil and Big Bloom. I am growing them in 4 gallon containers, outside in the sun during the day and bring them in at night due to the cooler temps of the pacific NW climate. I started nutes after 3 weeks and feed every 10 days 1/4 of the recommended dose. I keep them under cover if it rains and only use water that has sat for over 24 hours and check the ph levels.
All 4 plants are growing and flowering like weeds (no pun intended). I have no idea when they will be ready to harvest. The Top44 is about 1 1/2 feet tall, smells very strong, started flowering about 6 weeks ago and is now loaded, however the buds are small (I am ok with that). I have removed some of the larger leaves to prevent them from shading the buds.
I prefer to harvest earlier to avoid the couch lock high.
I attached a photo taken today. Can someone take a look and give me some advise as to how much longer and what to look for when they are ready to be harvested? The little hair things are turning amber. The little white bubbly things are still white. Sorry I don't know what the name is for them. I read to harvest them before the bubbly things turn amber to prevent the couch lock high.
The AK47 is also loaded and at the same stage of flowering, however it is only about a foot tall, has much smaller leaves and didn't branch out like the Top44.
Thanks in advance!
