How to Tell When To Harvest Weed -Best Quality & Highest THC – 2022 Update

Written by thcscout on October 2, 2024. Posted in Grow. No Comments on How to Tell When To Harvest Weed -Best Quality & Highest THC – 2022 Update

Harvesting weed at the wrong time is one of the most common rookie mistakes and in this video, we teach you the absolute best way to know when it’s time to chop your marijuana and weed plants.

From seed to harvest, marijuana plants have a broad range of growth periods. The duration of the growth cycle may depend on several factors, including growing medium,environment, nutrients and genetics. This combination of factors means that there is a high variability in how long it will take for peak and optimal THC and CBN levels. For the most part, it takes about 9 week of flowering for buds to fully mature but based on the factors listed above, it could be more or less.

The most effective way to tell when the best time is to harvest is by using a jeweler’s loupe to magnify the trichomes and use the color as a guide. Depending on the color of the trichomes, you can choose for optimal THC or CBN content and if you are going for the highest THC content, wait until all of the trichomes are clear. If you want more of a sedative high, THC converts to CBN and when trichomes turn amber, this signifies conversion.

How to Breed Cannabis – The Making of Southern Belle – A Collaborative Pollen to Seed Grow Journal

Written by thcscout on September 20, 2024. Posted in Grow. No Comments on How to Breed Cannabis – The Making of Southern Belle – A Collaborative Pollen to Seed Grow Journal

In this video I give pollen to my growmie Joe who had prized phenotype of the strain Lilac Diesel by Ethos Genetics. I end up sending him pollen from a reversal of Hella Jelly by Humbodlt Seed Company and we create some of our own feminized cannabis seeds which were named Southern Belle and Berry Chaotic. We show you how to breed your own cannabis strain and crosses in this joint breeding project. Two different growers can grow both male and female plants separately and by combining their efforts, they can create their own cannabis strains or crosses. The week by journal of Joe’s grow can be seen here: https://discord.com/channels/905550117803810856/1225097747699335250

Shout out to https://www.instagram.com/official_jokermannn on the discord for the seed pools and picking these strains.

Notable differences from this grow and GWM:

It worth noting, worm castings were added but this resulted in excess which proves that the original GWM feed chart had sufficient levels of nutrients.

This joint breeding project highlights the step-by-step process of cannabis breeding, from identifying key traits like stem structure, terpene profile, yield, THC content, frost, and bud formation, to successfully cross-pollinating a phenotype. Follow along as we break down how Joe’s Lilac Diesel (known for its strong stem structure and impressive yield) was paired with the frosty but structurally lacking Hella Jelly to create a perfect match.

Key Topics Covered:
0:25 Cannabis Seed Pools
1:21 Combining dominant strain traits for a winning hybrid
2:02 Sending pollen for successful pollination
2:15 How to Pollinate Bud Sites (Isolated)
2:43 Day by Day Journal on Maturing Seeds
4:58 When to Harvest Cannabis Seeds

This journal is a perfect example of how you can still breed while you are growing medicinal cannabis to consume.
