Speed up ripening?

[Jwhat201]

Hi I have a Blue Dynamite in flowering start of week 6, on 12/12. Due to a dry spell and being poor I might have to harvest early.

Looking for ways to ripen my buds faster. Right now she only has one or two red hairs, one or two more ambering, but definitely 99% white hairs. Lots of trichomes some clear some cloudy.

Is there any ways to speed up the process of the hairs changing, etc? So I don't have to go so long without lol.

Thanks in advance any help is much appreciated

Ps there's not many fan leaves left on her, had trouble early on, don't know if this will inhibit the red hairs? And if pics will help let me know and I'll take a few.

Change your flowering cycle to 10/14 and she will mature faster. You will lose some yield but will get to maturity sooner. Pics would be great.

Cool thanks a million man I'll do that, will post few pics soon

Made the switch, pics tomorrow lights out in there now.

Any other ways anyone? Just a guess, but what if I snipped the edges of the leaves off around the buds would that help?

That would just cut your level of photosynthesis. The only way I know to ripen faster is photoperiod. It cuts yield because you are growing a shorter time and less light per day. But if there was a way to cut time without cutting yield we would all be doing it.

Right on thanks man. Not too worried about yield cause it wouldn't be the best anyway. I just need it to medicate yesterday haha.

Crank up the Flux Capacitor on the DeLorean perhaps .. banana peels seem to work well!

^^ That is probably the best option for you. The problem with the Flux Capacitor is that it has been phased out due to excess carbon emissions...

Banana peels release Ethylene gas which will speed up ripening

if you cut the edges of the sugar leaves, the buds will get hotter and ripen faster as those leaves are used for cooling the buds as well.
