She's still stretching though. FeelinSpacey Well-Known Member. My plants are mature before going into flower so they show pistils pretty much within the first days.
For surrre, appreciate it. As stated earlier, Indicas should be harvested earlier than Sativas — when the resin glands are developed but not fully ripened. Extending the harvesting time will impact the effects. Another indication that it's time to harvest cannabis plants are when the leaves change color. During the flowering phase, the leaves will be a healthy green color. As they enter the harvesting phase, the leaves turn a yellow or yellow-brown color.
When pistils first form, they look similar to little white hairs. As the plant matures, the pistils will darken and curl inward. Most growers use the trichome strategy to determine when marijuana is ready to harvest. They use a magnifying glass or magnifier to study the trichomes. Harvest-ready trichomes are milky-white, almost looking like plastic. Some growers also let marijuana plants harvest after the trichomes turn milky white.
Everyone has a different growing and harvesting process. But are there any specific best practices? There are a few steps to complete before, during, and after harvesting:. Following these few extra steps will ensure harvesting and drying will be flawless. For more details on how to handle your crop after harvesting, check out our After Harvest guide. Drying makes the resin glands brittle; trimming when your plant is dry will risk resin gland loss.
Should you still use hand trimming or is machine trimming recommended? Machine trimming saves a lot of time and can improve the look of buds. However, some plants still require hand trimming. As an alternative, you can have the best of both worlds. You can use a trimming device that offers the precision of hand trimming with the speed of a machine.
If you have an indoor grow room, your plant has the ability to flower after only a few weeks! The quality of your plant depends on your knowledge of the cannabis growth stages and the lifecycle of your plants. Germinating: days 2. Seedling: weeks 3. Vegetative: weeks 4. Pre-Flowering: weeks 5. Flowering: weeks 6. Female: Two pistils the pistil contains the reproductive parts of a flower will be growing on the buds flowers grow above these leaves, one cluster on each side.

The Stages of Cannabis Growth Cannabis growth is made up of a series of stages that plants undergo during their lifecycle. Cannabis Growth Timeline 1. Germinating Seeds To effectively germinate, you must ensure that seeds are mature enough. If your seeds are immature they will likely not germinate.
If your seeds have reached maturity they will appear shiny and light to dark brown and will be dry and hard to the touch. If your seeds are underdeveloped they will feel soft and appear white or green. To germinate, keep your seed in a wet, dark place. Some growers may keep it in a cup of water or wrapped in a wet paper towel and set inside of a cabinet. Exposing seeds to light and moisture stimulates hormones and gives the growth process a boost.
A single root, called the radicle, will shoot downwards as the new stem grows upwards pushing the seed out of the soil. Unlike common marijuana leaves, two rounded cotyledon leaves will sprout from the stem as the plant breaks away from the seed's protective casing. These cotyledon leaves gather energy from sunlight so that the plant can become stable and grow bigger. Once the roots develop, the first true leaves grow and the plant is not in its seedling stage.
Seedling Stage The seedling growth stage is fragile and plants must receive hours of sunlight, moist soil, and mild humidity to grow rapidly. Because the seedling has such a small root system, it's important to not drown it by overwatering. Once a plant becomes a seedling, it will develop more traditional-looking cannabis leaves. A marijuana leaf is made up of anywhere between 3 to 13 fingers. The leaves produced from a sprout will appear with only one rigged finger. With new growth, marijuana leaves will develop more fingers.
Mature marijuana plants will typically have between 5 and 7 fingers per leaf but can reach up to The first fingered leaves can grow up to 4 inches above cotyledon leaves and will have the notorious serrated edges. This set of leaves grow in pairs on opposite sides of the stem. Cannabis plants are treated as seedlings until they develop leaves with a full number of fingers.
