thanks

well it was about time to harvest them

the first one became dry and started to crumble when you touch it , in addition the hairs became dry brown

the second one i found couple seeds @ one of the little buds at the bottom and all seeds where dark gray and brown ready for usage , which is another sign that the plant is as well ready

i had no males but it seems the wind bring something and i got couple of seeds ... anyway :) both are harvested on time even bit out

both in flowering for about 55 days almost 9 weeks which should be pretty enough.... and of course it's 200W CFL no other bulbs , the results cannot be same as 1KW LED or HPS

Thanks

need 2 more weeks next time, way to early.
just because the seed were done does not mean the plant is ready to chop, totally illogical thought process

55 days from 12/12, or 55 days from when the actual budding starts? i mean, i'm sure it has a nice high and all, but that easily could have gone another 2-3 weeks, and you would have yieled significantly more.

as i mentioned above , after 2 more weeks the one was going to be so dry that it will crumble down even from the wind

and the second one will go far over ready , cause the couple seed which i had where more than ready

anyway :) can or can't , they are already down :) , to time to feel sorry about

Yeah, I mean, I'm sure all of us at one point took plants down way too early, but in the future, you can keep it in mind. And if your plant was dry and crumbly you should have figured out what was causing that to happen, because it just simply isn't mature based on your pics. There's like 70% fresh pistils, which means 70% unswollen calyxes, and theres still a shit load of food in the fan leaves that hadn't been sucked up yet.

well after 2 more weeks both where going to be with no single leaf :) , all leaves were already dead no single one has left , as i got some decease before that , which forced them to became brown a bit early and destroyed all leaves

and as i mentioned one was already so dry, that if you touch it , it crumble i was even hard to remove the leaves without to destroy the buds as it was super fragile

Seeds do not mean the plant is ready to harvest.
you sacrificed potency and quality
just saying.

well first the soil became too acid , i changed the pH back on 6.5 but the leaves where already damaged , then my f**kin nutrition mixture burned what was left and to be the hell complete i got visited from 1 billion thrips , of course i kicked their asses , but the plants where too damaged and passed too much pain , it was almost impossible to keep them 2 more weeks alive , and i decided to harvest them after both biggest buds just cracked from their steams and i found them one morning on the floor (i had net created but doesn't help to save them)

looking at your posted pics...none of the leaves are dry. all nice and fresh, still lots of sugar to be eaten by your girls.
lets see pics of the dry leaf...like you said it's to late, maybe on your next run, ask b4 chopping
have fun

that's what your plants should look like...
and those leafs are not dry.
the yellow is def overfeeding/high ph issue.

Dude those leaves aren't yellow or dead at all, if anything they look slightly nutrient burnt. I'm not disrepsecting you, your plants, or your harvest, I'm just trying to say that the reality is, it's way too early, and it's plain as day. That's like posting pictures of green tomatoes on your plant, withi like, one tomato slightly turning red, and trying to tell us all that they're completely done.

these are the pics from before 2 weeks

all these leaves which you can see became dead ,

the yellish one where already on way as you can see here from before 14 days

and the dark green one fall out before 5 days completely , they where dark green even when they fall , but all dry and twisted

the decease which i had before tottly killed them all
