First time grower, full of doubts - Also sort of a growth journal

Thise girls are at least 3 weeks out IMO. Yields are hard to guess but I'll place a bet on 60+ grams per plant. I just got 126g from a plant that I think was not much bigger than yours at this stage. My next 2 to come down are much bigger so fingers crossed I dont do anything stupid.
From your lips to nature ears i hope. :cheers:
 
I'm 10 weeks into flower in 2 girls that are one week and 3 weeks from finishing respectively. I have no idea where these breeders get their timelines. I could have harvested sooner but with all clear tricombs and all white pistils.

Sorry to bother you with this, but about drying in paper bags, just a few tips. First, what type of paper bag? Those for "bread" we can find in supermarkets or the thicker ones, sort of the clothes stores like Primark? I read that i should line the bottom and fold the bag. If i put it in a closet how does it get "airflow"? Can i put the bag inside a carton box and leave it in a place with some airflow? If you knowof some tutorial online, or something like that please let me know. Thanks

I think they try to sell shorter times to turn the seeds more attractive. RQS says my girls (easy bud and auto critical) have 8/9 weeks from seed until harvest. But for what i'm seing it's 10/11 weeks. Anyway i'm going to order what i need for the next grow and i'll also buy a "microscope". In a week or something like that i'll start checking the thricomes. I'm a bit anxious to try the fruits of my labour, but i'm not in a hurry. I may try to "speed" dry a bit to see what i got but i'm not sure if there's a safe way to do that.
 
The idea is that the bag regulates RH. You do not want air blowing across the girls. Dont worry about air movement. Plain paper bag like the groceries have. Perhaps a cardboard box does not breathe as well as a bag? I use a laundry drying rack. I'll take a pic. The laundry rack folds up out of the way when not in use. It has several layers of wire shelves. easy hanging. I cover it in moving blankets to keep the light out. The blankets also form a small closet environment which is easy to control with the smallest and cheapest humidifier and or dehumidifier...

Just get a decent 60x jewelers loop with an led light. you are a few weeks away from needing to check tricombs IMO

Yeah, but i have to order it in the meantime. COVID19 is delaying deliveries.

So you hang the bag on the rack. Well i was thinking about using those "55% INTEGRA BOOST HUMIDITY PACK" inside the bag. This way i would not have to worry about the RH. But if the bag regulates RH maybe i just hang the bag inside a closet and use the RH/TEMP meter. Well, i'll have to figure something out. Thanks
 
I do not use bags. I hang the bud on the rack.
 
55 is too low. Dont use packs. Dry at about 65f 60% humidity
