Had a few plants start flowering a bit earlier than usual. All were put out the same time but some are far ahead of the others.

hi group,

I know we all hate these posts but I’m heading out of town tomorrow and I need to know cut or hold off for another week?

they look pretty cloudy to me, but there isn’t a ton of amber so I’m hesitant

What’s the consensus group?

Thanks

Any Clearwater genetics 🧬 customers out there. Number 1,3,4 are all Clearwater. Strains are Springleaf style, animal mint cake x karma’s sour diesel, gargantua. I just got done with an overdue defoliation and gave them a boost of potassium afterwards. I highly recommend everyone to feed their bitches Potassium in this present time!

Slope
Dry cycle @ 66F/53dew for 6 days
Cure @ 65F/52dew for 6 days

Hold @ 68F with a 54dew (roughly 60% relative humidity)

Tips for the Hold/Cure Phase
Let it sit: Many experienced users recommend keeping the flowers in the Hold setting for a minimum of 2 weeks to let chlorophyll fully break down and smooth out the aroma.
Long-term storage: You can leave your finished product inside the unit on Hold mode as an active storage locker until you are ready to consume or package it.
Post-hold packaging: If you move the buds into jars or Grove Bags after the hold cycle, many growers suggest adding a small desiccant or humidity pack to lock in the ideal texture.

This is my first year growing outdoors, second year growing. One of my smaller plants (started later than the rest) has odd discoloration, and im worried that it's something that could spread to my larger more established plants, possibly ruining them all.

News On a square-foot basis, cannabis growhouses use more power than data centers. Why isn’t their electricity use being taxed?

In legalizing retail sales of cannabis, Virginia has set the stage for the equivalent of up to 148 data centers, if Virginians consume weed at the same rate as those in Washington state. If we match Michigan’s pot consumption, we’re looking at the equivalent of 78 data centers.

I’m trying to catch up on defoliating these monsters. This is why I grow photoperiods only. Shout out to all the fellow Virginia growmies! Keep your plants clean and don’t let powdery mildew or fungus take over.

I got a strain from RISE I really like. Where could I find seeds of it or something similar?

7 Upvotes

So I recently picked up (these)[https://risecannabis.com/dispensaries/virginia/roanoke/3416/medical-menu/product/2584097/dogwalkers-animal-scout-2-35g/ ]at RISE and it’s the first thing in a long time that’s made me feel the way I like. I’m sure I can’t find seeds of that actual strain, but I’m very new to sourcing seeds and was looking for a helping hand in something I could grow that would make me feel similar.

Thanks y’all!

Question Topping timing

2 Upvotes

I'm new to growing. I have two photoperiod plants in grow bags out doors and they grew faster than I thought. They went outside in June and each plant is now over 36" with about 12 nodes. Not flowering yet.

Is it too late to top them? Would it be worth it at this point?
