PPP done in 37 days???

My friend started flowering his PPP of Apr 7th. He doesnt have a magnifying glass to check the trichromes but at least 80% of the hairs are yellow.

Any advice?

Dude cut it, dry it in the microwave and get those meds to a dispensary pronto!:)
Ask for no less than $5500 a pound or...

You could wait till most of those hairs are dark red and it would get you high/stoned.
Unless you are growing bogglegum it is going to take 65 days.

Take it from someone who has watched people grow since the early days of Overgrow.com, and since ICMAG's inception...

Hairs are a sign that a furtherance of maturity has taken place, but no indication of when to harvest. Typically for indica-dominant strains the 'average' time of flower is anywhere from 50-60 days, depending if you begin the day count when you can see the flowering process initiate. Secondly, the only for-sure way to check is to get a jeweler's loupe or something similar, and if you have say at least a 50% amber trich to 50% cloudy, you can harvest.

37 days? Dude, that's like what, 5 weeks? Even the quicker flowering indica-dom strains take a good 7 or 8 weeks and most people like the 'narcotic' effect so they wait until many of the trichomes are amber, which could even mean 8+ weeks.

Your buddy needs to wait and be patient. Being patient is one of the hardest things to do when growing. 37 days? I'd say at least 2 if not 3 more weeks, minimum.

That's early.
I've noticed that when I add a little too high powered pk nutes, the plant stalls growing buds and the calyxes mature and the pistils die off for a few days to a week. When this happens I give it a slight flush and a half strength nute feed right after then wait a couple days and back to regular feed except a little less of the pk booster. Are they in soil or hydro?

Id say no. This is from experience of course... Ive never seen ANY plant finish this fast, the fastest flowering plant Ive seen is about 50 days but will got 55.. Ive grown PPP outdoors in the N. Hemisphere, and she went about 65 days.

Just my 2cents, it's way to early. It's already been stated afew times.. :p
Wait it out..I'd say atleast 3 more weeks...
If you have the extra cash buy a 40x or better M-Glass and really check them out..Pics would be very helpful tho...

there is no way that a pure power plant would be done in 37 days. i have ran this strain many times and i always try to take it to at least 68-75 days. always turns out perfect. check out some of my posts and youll find all the ppp's

Re: PPP done in 37 days???

My last indoor organic soil run with ppp none finished totally and I let them go 11 weeks, one did get closer to being finished but another 2 weeks would not have hurt it. The others needed more. Breeders packs assume perfect conditions I am pretty sure take it and all advice with a grain of salt. Use your own judgement, you can take when you want but you should look at the trichs to decide forget about the hairs...hell enough heat could make the hairs "look" done. Don't go by that.
