How to Grow Weed

Chapter Nine
Cutting and Curing….
Circumspection or Circumcision???

Identifying the PEAK FLORAL STAGE of the plant’s growth is as critical as recognizing male and female plant types.  Making a harvesting error of too soon or too late really diminishes the quality and quantity of your endeavor.

When you think your plants are ready to be cut, give them another 5 days.  This is a very universal conclusion agreed upon by most of the growers I have followed.  They say this was a hard lesson learned over time.

A fine example of the rewards of waiting are the next 2 photos.  The 1st one is about 3”+ in diameter and about 15” tall.  She is just one of multiple buds on the same plant.  Even though a close inspection with a magnifying glass reveals that 50% of the pistils are amber color at this stage, there are other factors that indicate it’s too soon to harvest.

At this stage, smell is a great indicator of how ripe the plant really is.  This crop still has the strong “skunky” odor.  In another few days or so, the smell will mellow to a very pleasing aromatic scent, indicating the TERPENE production is peaking.

Clearly ahead of all its competition by leaps and bounds, this COMPREHENSIVE GUIDE ON HOW TO GRO MARIJUANA is leading the way in terms of delivering on demand, instead of promising results in some far and distant future.

"Never expected it to work this good!"

Well, I must admit I didn't buy the COMPREHENSIVE GUIDE TO HYDROPONIC BIG BUD MARIJUANA CULTIVATION thinking that it would work for me, but boy was I wrong. After spending so much money on so many products that never worked at all, I bought this one on a whim alone, was very half hearted when I started using it. Imagine how surprised I was when the results started to show!

Damn good book! It is very informative and  well laid out. I would like to meet the writer of the book to talk to her. It taught me a great deal about growing. The best money I spent in a very long time.

I got the book, the info on regeneration is especially good. There was some stuff in there that even I did not know really well. If you are new to growing or even if you are a bit long in the tooth and stuck in your ways like me, you can never have enough information on this subject thanks.
