Photoperiod Haze's eurogrow bubble gum and caramel. + free seed Dinafem auto mystery (completed)

So here's DF1 starting to turn dark through the leaves, pH is 6.5-6.6 in soil after watering. Watered with 1ml grow 3ml bloom 4ml topmax and pH at 6.2. Buds still seem to be filling out, always read it's last 2 weeks to fill out, so hoping I'm entering those last 2 weeks now and if they do these should be some nice nugs on this plant. Super frosty but i can not describe the smell. Smoked a tiny bud today and it was definitely too early, checked trichs and looking pretty cloudy with a few clear. tasted good though!

Heres DF2, been watered exactly the same, but drinking a bit more than the other. This one definitely experienced less stress or handled it better either way. This still smells super sweet and super super frosty, even the popcorn underneath is coated in trichs. This one is still not 100% milky so may have to chop a couple of days later.

I think this is DF1 but not 100%

Okay guys I need some advice. I dropped my irrigator timer in the water without knowing and buggered it right up! Also got my timings slightly wrong on harvesting. I am beginning solo water this week. They had their last feed yesterday morning. That gives me a week until I leave for England for a week. Should I chop them Sunday morning before I leave? Or leave them in the pots and not water them for a week and let them dry out in the soil?

As the ckeeky sample was a tad early for you,be best to let them go for a bit yet.if you give them a good drowning before you leave,when you get back the pots been dry maybe 2-3 days and ripe for chopping ?

I like your thinking! But would you leave the lights? Or should I raise them a bit so they dry a little slower?

I could also change it to 16 or even 14 hours light instead... But don't know how that would affect the quality for the last week... Kinda makes sense to me cus that's what happens in the real world. But being auto don't know if it's worth it

 

[bad dragon bzzz]

i just assumed you would be living stuff turned on.if its a total electric shutdown,a hanging plant would still like a fan in the room somewhere.as they autos and only a week to go,any change in light pattern shouldnt bother them at all.a reduction in lights on should slow their drinking down a bit.some people give 48hr darkness before chop.im just worried about budrot if fans turned off.

 

[Haze4dayz]

I'll be leaving everything turned on, got the other plants to keep awake... But i think I'll reduce it to 16 hours light as I don't want to stress the photoperiods too much and leave fans on 24 hours to minimize bud rot risk. But with current weather it's about 40% in the tent so shouldnt be a problem

Yes water them well before leaving and light on normal or a slightly reduced schedule. Archie is right! Plus, I had the same decision to make on my first grow, 2 beautiful plants that were chopped early. Only thing they gave me was a headache. Let them go longer
