Harvesting so it keeps growing

how’s this now looks like one has some amber some white still on top but sugar leaves looking red. Other one has pretty white pistols still. I swear it looks like they shrunk a bit, is that the leaves dying off? Is there room to chunk your here or prett much ready? I beam fertilisi g still should I start flushing now just feed water?

Don't try to run water through her when she needs nutrients most.
Feed till you chop. Just my opinion see what else is said.

I think you should still give them some time. The buds will shrink a lot post-harvest. It looks like you’ve got them right next to a wall. Depending on the orientation, that may be curtailing sun exposure and slowing their development.

Since you’re flowering outdoors right now, I am assuming you’re in the Southern hemisphere. In that case, right now would be the equivalent of mid-October in the northern hemisphere. Unless the weather prohibits it, might as well let them mature more.
 
Interesting thread. A little bad luck with some seedlings has left me in a similar :lot-o-toke:

situation. They either grow or no crop until the end of summer. Hydro system with a healthy root ball. They have been back under the lights for three days now and showing lots of signs of new growth. Keeping my fingers crossed.
Never seen a set up like yours. Quite interesting. Do you have a thread discussing how it works, etc. ? The Fan, Bucket of water with a hose, big ass pipes, Hmmm, what's he got going on there .... lol.

That plant is just starting to ripen up. Chop it now & you have wasted your time growing it. Give it 2 weeks & it should be close or ready. Don't let the anxiety of harvesting get the best of you like I have in the past. I've chopped a few over the years that I shouldn't have & they did not get me high. Gave me a headache though.
Rule of Thumb: When you think it's done.... Give it one more week. You wont go wrong that way.

It's a recirc. system. The fan is a res. cooler (evaporative). The bucket in the foreground is the next res. change being aerated. :lot-o-toke: A $100 system that has produced four and a half pounds to date.:thumb:(excluding the lights and exhaust fan)

I been sneaking a bit here and there and it’s been timing great but yeah I’ll give it more time fir sure

Yeah thanks, I placed them so they get as much sun as possible

That’s good, they should do great with southern exposure. Brick walls like that radiate stored heat, too, which could help if you’re facing frost. In my experience, moisture is the bigger worry during harvest season. I’ve had my temps drop to like 27 F and the plants were OK. But the humidity from rain has led to bud rot even when they’re covered.
 
What you Rekon now guys the first one looking good still has white amber pistols but one branch is dying off looks like red pistols already and leaves dying. Is that still chinking up? Any comments on test of the girls? Looks like a bit of chunking left to do still?

I congratulate you on your patience my friend. It has been over a month since you first asked about chopping. You will be rewarded in spades. As to whether you are ready to chop yet , it is hard to see from the pics. Are there any amount of new white pistols growing out? If so keep feeding her. The yellowing leaves are her pulling out the last bit of goodness that was stored there. You are there or almost I would think. :goodjob:
 
Also. An update on my reveged Blueberry. It has bee seven and a half weeks since I put her back under the lights. This has been nothing but inspiring and will save me at least a month of power next season.:slide: Out of four to start, two are gone and one is a single branch but should make one nice bud. The forth has out performed my wildest expectations. First cut she produced a paltry 60 g's. Any guesses what she will do when ready this round.:ganjamon:

 
Yo yo yo so on these first two pics two branches seam nature and are going really soft should I pull these off first?
