New Grower Another AK Newbie Here: First Grow Ever

[akreso]

Thanks @elsamurai . Your and @AKsteel's comments have made me feel better about my upcoming travel. I was starting to stress about my girls thinking the timing of my travel could be seriously ill timed. And given how nice they look, I do indeed want to get the best out of them.

I did mention I am growing a Frisian Dew. I started three and two sprouted. Those are both, however, growing in my greenhouse outside. I have a journal on that grow, too. I need to link both grows in my signature below. . . on the to-do list!

After this indoor grow, I am going to start a DP Star Ryder and a Low Ryder/Easy Ryder. Pretty excited about both, particularly that Star Ryder.

Sometimes life gets in the way of our avocation (if I have the right word) and we have to make stressful decisions...listen to the advice of the experienced growers and you will be alright...do not stress and enjoy vakay

Thanks AK49ER. . . Ahh the worries of a first time grower! Again, so grateful for all the support here.

MrMojo - thanks, also. Welcome to the party! I am so excited for these final weeks.

Thanks @briman! I am pretty excited about it. Thus far, this grow has gone WAY better than I expected to for my first grow.

Here is an update on day 66. Based on comments here and the "when to harvest" thread, I think I have about 2-3 weeks left. My gut is telling me that I have two more feedings, then two weeks or so of flush. I am watching the leaves and color to monitor. I am just now starting to get some yellowing of leaves, but for the most part everything is pretty darn green and lush still. Buds are still packing on the weight - it is exciting to see every day the new growth, wider buds, fatter colas, etc.

The girls all cozied together:

Coming along nicely. As always I am curious to hear what folks think about my schedule above . . too long? Too short? Just right?
