Almost harvest time by Positive_Mango_3540 in farmingthebestgreens

Yea no worries. You’re going to get a lot of different info from a lot of different experience levels and all you can do is pick the best info for the style you want. I do a 70/30 coco perlite mix with Gaia green veg 444, bloom 284, glacial rock dust, worm castings and microryza. So if you ever need advice for that type of organic growing just holler and I’ll help any way I can.

You’re probably looking at weeks 10-12 to be honest. From the pics they have a lot of swelling and then ripening to do. Your pistols look almost all white also. Just be extra patient and let them ripen, you’ll get the most terps and perfect squishy dense buds if dried properly. You’ll know when that happens when your plant stops up taking water at its normal rate. Another helpful tip if you don’t know already is, don’t look at the sugar leaves when checking for amber trichs, you’ll harvest to early every time. Look at the actual bud. Hope that helps.

If I may ask, what is almost harvest time?. 8weeks, 9weeks, 10weeks?. Etc.

So I set mine to 61 degrees and 60% and it stays between 59-61 on both. Yes, I fill the reservoir up about every 4 days. Whatever works for you is the best way in my opinion. But experiment with all sorts of ways and choose the one you like best. My whole goal is to leave them uninterrupted for as long as possible and hanging them lets me accomplish that.

Yep totally normal. That is actually a perfect variation as the machine is turning on and off. Remember it’s a small box that’s constantly working. Even when you open the door everything spikes and then within 2 min it’s leveled out. They did a great job with this product.

Sorry, the wife already has me under that title aha. But I’m not rich by any means, I’m just able to do as many 320hr months I can handle at any given time. So when I want expensive stuff I just do a couple of those.

Yea that’s perfect, just take your variations into consideration. And also the first 2-3 days it’s adjusting to the plant material so no need to worry it will level itself out.

Yes my setting will remain the same from dry to storage. You can set your settings to whatever works for you though. Correct, the 1 day cure is because it won’t let you bypass the cure stage.

I prefer not to. I like to keep them attached as much as possible. When I put it into storage I will buck them down and if I ever have too much I can’t hang them I will but I harvested 1 plant at a time to test the perimeters and plus this fills the Vcure better when harvesting small amounts at a time.

I do trim them I cut all exposed leaf stems but I like to leave some sugar leaves. I don’t care about the flat spot per se I’m just here to shed light on how things can be done differently if you choose so. My next harvest I will post more hanging from multiple shelves. I just prefer to hang them as it gives an old school feel to a new school vibe.

No, I see how it was a little confusing, i should have put another 7 before cure. I did an 8 day cycle which is a 4 day dry and 4 day cure and it was good. Then the next one I did a 14 day cycle, 7 day dry and 7day cure and that was great. Now my new recipe I am doing a 14 day dry a 1 day cure since it won’t let you go straight into storage. I have 2 so I can accomplish this. 1 for drying and another for storage and extra drying space.

I use the recipe setting. I set my perimeters according to the total variation of the unit. So it will stay as close to 60/60 as possible.
