New Grower 1st grow - Dinafem Fruit Auto - harvested!

[Boradan]

Just read through this.
Nice growing
Be patient. I know it's hard, but the extra time waiting will be well worth it in the end.
Cutting too early can result in a crappy smoke, a light and airy bud and a loss of 20%-30% in yield.
Your lady looks like she hasn't started eating her own lower leaves yet, so still a while to go.

My Northern lights took 129 days, but gave me 281g of great smoke (don't worry - yours won't take that long ). The wait was well worth it.

Thanks Boradan for the advise. Wow.....281g will be sorted for husband for a year!!!! It seems hydro always has taller plant and bigger yield but also takes longer to harvest. I will be good and patient

Day 56 - End of week 8. Checking on the trichs everyday, some of them have become cloudy and few on the main cola are amber, not much but a start! The smell is getting stronger, grapefruit like, smell is amazing! Leaves are still green but 85%-90% of them cover with the sugar, very sticky.

It doesn't have significant change compares to the last few days but a reference for anyone in the future who grows this strain.

Day 59 - Check on the trichs, getting more cloudy but still a little while yet and the buds don't seem to get any bigger. I know, have to be patient

It's hard to see when you're looking at them often but definitely fattening Not too long now!

Thanks for the comment and made me feel better Getting very excited about it as I have never grown anything from seed or any positive experience about plants, I did kill a cactus before

Day 61 - Took some trichomes shots today and these are the trichomes on the buds not on the leaves (best photo I could do). The main cola has a lot of amber but the rest still look clear to me. Most of the pistils are brown / orange, but the leaves are still green. Wait or start flushing? I planned to start flushing when the trichomes are mostly cloudy but now I see quite a fair bit of amber on the main cola and most pistils are not white, it confuses me!

I'm too new new to be giving harvest advice but I can give rep for an impressive first grow.

I think you can't go wrong now

Thanks Time for dropping in and that's a reassurance for me! First time grower, think it looks healthy and doing fine but back in mind: does it really? So much to learn and have to be more patient :smoking:
