Hey Fan, looks great! Lovely nugs.

But do you think they only have a week left? I ask because those ladies look like they have tons of fresh new pistels poppin.

well yeah , they have a lot of white hair , but there is a lot of red one as well , if i keep her alive , she will produce new white hairs and the rest will go dark red and so on and so on maybe about 1-2 months , but when i check the trichomes with a microscope , i can see 10% amber and in a week or maximum two there will be 30-40% amber , which is a sign to cut her out

i know we can keep it as long as it have white hairs , but i'm using couple of stimulants for volume and i assume it's forcing the buds to produce more and more new hair

and of course , i'm constantly cutting and testing pieces , so trust me it rocks :)

thanks

Day 60 part 2

Day 60 part 2

high fellows

and boom my upload is back , thanks a lot to all moderators for their hyper fast response :]

...example bellow , on some pics is visible the lower bud's hair color is 80%-90% red , almost no white hairs...

i'm thinking should i harvest her couple of times , to cut only the ready low buds now and keep the rest till became same , or to wait one-two more weeks and cut her completely

Day 65 - Trichomes and SC pt2

Day 65 - Trichomes and SC pt2

refer to the post on top of this

here you can see example of the top buds , as i mentioned in the upper post , 50% are brownish and i'm pretty sure this is the top quality which i can get from CFL 250W from this plant

please take a look at the trichomes pictures and these bud pictures and let me know if you think it's time

leaves are all dry and fragile bottom buds fully dark brown no white hairs

They look like they could use more time. To me, they still look pretty clear.

I find, with a loupe, I have to look at the trichs from various angles to figure out if they have truly clouded. Sometimes the angle of light makes them look done when they arent.

Id stop giving them any boosters and ride it out with plain water.

Looking real good Fan!

HEEEEY FIRST REAL FEEDBBACK

Many thanks 'wildgrow' appreciate it

so yeah if you check the trichome pictures you can see that there are already blurry and clouded but there are still like 50% pure clear and transparent , so i think i can keep her for one more week alive

btw i already quit all stimulants and nutritions before 3 days and yesterday was 1st on pure water , tomorrow again and so on 2L water per 48h is my program

so fellows check all the 3 previous quotas up and share what do you think about her status IS SHE READY OR WHAT :)

Good call. I personally like the highest % of milky trichs possible with the lowest %s of clear and amber.

From your pics your plant really looks a lot like the Strawberry Cough clone only. Very similar leaf shape and pistil formation. I'm surprised and impressed as DP doesn't have the best reputation these days. Bet it smells amazing and is going to taste unbelievable. Straw Cough is one of my all time favorites,I'm jealous,lol.

Thanks for sharing.

hey yeah

it's very tasty and smelly too

actually Dutch Passion are quite cool here, at least in my region

It's not a clone it's pure plant from seed , 65 old since i got the seed and the soil and all began

it's very normal harvest at least for now i'm pretty happy with it , it looks like it can go up to 50g at the end dry stuff , and for 65 days grow under 250W CFL :")

so i guess in 7 days i'll harvest her

Yes! Pistel packing mommas!

The branch buds in pics 3 and 5 look close to done. That monster cola still looks like she'll go longer. When are you chopping?

Looks like a nice scattering of trichs even if the bud isn't fully fluffed out. Thanks for posting.

yeah , thanks

i notice that Strawberry cough is not developing so many hairs but there is a lot of meat and trichomes a lot

the fruits itself are like caterpillars not the usual pearl form ... very nice surprise for me , will try same brand again for sure

Thanks
