New Grower Another AK Newbie Here: First Grow Ever

[AK49ER]

Thanks AK49ER. With all the support here, the grow feels more like a team effort!

I am trying to keep up with and make our posse of AK growers proud, you all (@AK49ER @AKsteel @DarshAK @briman and others have certainly set the bar quite high!)

Update time! We're getting close. . . I think.

Both ladies are 60 days, today. Fed both last night, wondering if that will be the final feeding before a flush.

First, the ladies all snuggled together:


Next, the Polar Express. I think of the two she is the closest to completion. How much longer, hard to say - Anyone have any thoughts?



And the Cash Crop. She's downright loaded. I am loving her development, lately.



So a few questions. Guesses on how long to harvest?

I am getting nervous, I am leaving town again in two weeks for 10 days. I am very very much afraid that the optimal harvest time is going to fall during that time. Suggestions on best way to handle things? I obviously don't want to harvest too early? How late is too late? What impact does that have on the bud?

Thanks all!

As a follow up, for perspective, I am either harvesting in 14 days or 25 days. . . uggh

You AK'ers are sure getting the hang of this growing lark. Top job my good chums, eP.

Pistols still look all white. I would say feed for 14 days and make a call then. I think they can still fatten up quit a bit and make for a better yield. Stay patient, from the pics I still think you have a few more weeks till flush. Plants look great and I think you're going to start seeing those buds really start o swell in the next week or so.

Awesome. Thanks Steel! I was hoping for at least a few more weeks. I'd love to feed for two more weeks at least, then have flush while I travel for 10 days and then harvest when I get back to town late June. From your comment that sounds like it might work out that way?

Sounds like a plan^^^you can assess your girls when you get back.
Youre doing a great job up to now,keep it up mate.

Thanks redrobbo. My biggest fear was that waiting too long, ie 25 days, would be too late and they'd be past their prime.

i'm with steel. white pistols and lush green vegetation mean its still going. those buds will fatten up in a week or 2.just make the call a day or 2 before you leave but my moneys on when you get back. and did I read right, your going to grow a Frisian dew? man those look fantastic.
