How long does the breeder recommend for flowering this one @Doug .?
I only ask because i think seeded plants will finish before Sensi’ -?! - if any one wants to weigh in here and correct or confirm what i ‘think’ , please do …
I remember Marijuana Botany by Robert Clarke says it takes between 14 - 35 days for seeds to mature.
I usually wait for a few to start falling out, and or just to be safe, wait untill the plant starts to die.
But about the 5 week mark after pollination is a safe time to harvest.
You can pop one or two out and check them. Squeeze them to make sure they arnt soft. And I check for a dark color and stripes.
Obviously tho the longer you wait the better.
~5-6 weeks for seeds to mature but they also mature with the plant. If the plant finishes early, the seeds will too. On average though, If I pollinate at day 21/28 I usually harvest around day 63-70.
Yes, same for me. I take everything to 70 days now or little longer, rarely have a strain that finishes before that anyways. At least for what I consider finished.
Beautiful! Frosty preggo gals and really prolific males-- very nice!
Wish our males put out that much pollen!
But-I am still ‘hashing-out’ the best collection method for me…
and, right now working with one very small plant-- so can only expect the poor guy to do so much!!
As far as the seeds being ready-- Don’t rush it on our (OG’s) account!
All those calyx’s still look really tightly closed and a hint of stamen/pistil still on a couple of them… still incubating!
When a couple starting to ‘pop’ open… the rest should be ready in a day or two after, from what I remember…
Then again-- if you want to use the weed once the seeds are out- wait to harvest for the smoke/hash…If In nature, they fall out on their own when the Mom dies… the longer the better, right?
I’ve never even tried. I did live in AK as a kid. I doubt there is much in Canada that I didn’t experience living on the Kenai peninsula. Not to doubt its beauty and culture. I am sure it’s one of kind.
Just to give you an idea of wilderness…Alaska is known (in the US) as the last frontier. It’s population is about 732, 000 and it’s area is 665,000 square miles. Canadas Territories make up about 2,500,000 square miles and have a population in total of just over 100,000. So four times the size with one seventh the population.
