So figured Iā€™d throw up an update and kinda wondering at what point do I pick em since its for seeds and not smoke if anyone feels like chiming in, for now planning on just leaving em for another week or two to be safe but maybe they are ready sooner?

First off is jack, stripped all the fan leaves off today and close shot u can see the beans in there


Next we have white rhinos

Hereā€™s a shot that I exposed a seed to see how far along they are

And final just a good ole shot of how loaded with beans that are just bursting out the calyxs

Nice girls !
And it all depends on the plant really. They will start to fall out when they are well passed done, but it depends on what the seeds look like ya known ?

I honestly think you can leave them if your unsure. But if a few seeds are coming out send a pic of what they look like. The last thing you want to do is cut the girls down to early and get immature seeds after all your hard work.

6-8 weeks from the last pollination is ideal. You can get away with 4-6, but youā€™ll have more immature seeds.

It was open pollenated all the way through, got flower flipped 1/18 if Iā€™m not mistaken so looking at about 5 days short of 2 months, so my guess a couple more weeks is prob a safe bet?

Figure about 3-4 weeks for the female plants to mature enough for ideal pollination, that would put them at 9-12 weeks from flip. Iā€™d wait another 3 weeks, maybe a month.

Damn :roll_eyes: they donā€™t have that longā€¦ Spring solstice next week, I try to push for that long and they could reveg

Well, it is what it isā€¦ next week would put them at 9 weeks, thereā€™d be a fair amount of mature seeds in there. You might have to sort through more immature ones, thatā€™s all. Youā€™ll still easily get 1-2 thousand per plant, if I had to bet. :stuck_out_tongue: More than enough for a good seed run.

Ok, I mean Iā€™ll try to leave it for as long as I can but Iā€™ve already been seeing new white pistils cuz itā€™s confused with the days getting longer not shorter lol hoping to push my luck till at least close to end of the month but think if I try to stretch into April itā€™s not gonna be pretty

Iā€™m sure you have more experience with accidental revegging than I do, itā€™s still a felony to have any plants at all hereā€¦ definitely not gonna be growing outdoors any time soon. Once I can, thatā€™ll bring a whole new list of ways for me to screw it up. :wink: Not a great climate up here, and dragging a bunch of 12ā€™ tall trees into a shed for light dep every afternoon for a month sounds like my idea of no fun.

Thatā€™s how our az elections went in 2016, lost by 70k votes, this last round we finally got a pretty bitchin bill passed that anyone 21+ can consume and grow (up to 12 plants per residence)

i have no clue on this but putting it out there maybe someone will chime in for you. but does it matter if they go into reveg since its not for smoke ? i mean if they go into reveg for a week while the beans ripen im sure they will still be maturing in that time frame and do they also mature as the plant goes back into flower?

everything looking awesome though az good job
