Thanks ! I hope to be around more. That’s awesome to hear ! I’m excited to finally grow a long flowering Sativa, hope to find some interesting effects. Interesting, yeah I guess my mind always went to warm sunny weather when I though of Mexico but you’re right lots of elevation down there.

Well, this was from 3 days ago:rofl: lol. Is someone a little anxious to harvest?
Fresh stigmas ripen in 2 or 3 weeks. Just take a look at what you have ripe now, and judge it against the amount of fresh and immature flowers coming on now. By the time these fresh stigmas have ripened, anything that is prime right now will be past peak by then, though still good. At 1 point the old flowers will be going bad quicker than the new flowers are getting good. Then it’s time to harvest. There are no rules against harvesting finished flowers… If you get a frosty fire cracker That is completely ripe with no new flowers coming out of the end of it, cut that sucker off and smoke it.

Great start
Good luck on your grow.
Red Snake is a very rewarding plant to grow.

Thanks @Panamajock! I feel I will be well-rewarded with both grows. Roughly 30% of my flower space will be devoted to long grows for at least the next 8 months or so!

@420noob is eager to harvest : ) From a resin point of view a great way to tell for sure is with a lupe/magnifying glass. I don’t like my sativas with much amber resin heads (might as well grow something quicker and higher yielding for that effect) - it’s strain/plant dependant whether the older resin is ambering as fresh stigmas emerge. For the majority of harvests there are still some white stigmas at the growing tips when most of the resin is milky with little amber. When all the stigmas are brown usually the older resin has ambered and the effect is less energetic. This is my experience with 8-10 week lines.

Me either. Ruins the up effect imo…but I’m more sensitive than most to cbn

Lmao sorry it seemed like a week! . The top buds all the trics are white as could be just the few trics by the new pistils. So pretty much do whatever but harvest in sections might be the way to go without losing goodies. The whole 8 weeks of flower with a light leak then another 10 wks it seems sssooo much longer than should have. Thanks for your patience.
I’m so bad with this I need to learn to write this stuff down. I just received some seeds and can’t remember from who. I got 74’ punta cometa oaxacan purple pheno. I apologize for this but thanks!

The sneaky back label tells the tail. Don’t feel bad I’ve been caught in the same situation.

I expect 20 weeks with that one. Seems on target. You got the same pheno George got. I had one really similar, probably the same pheno, but yours looks more like his. I nearly picked it at week 15 and then an explosive burst of new flowers came out. The new flowers were round, but flat. Lots of flat quarter sized buds 1/4" thick, each layer half lapping the next like shingles. (Casey Jones buds are similar)finished at week 20 or 21. George’s too.

Some new Mexican varieties to go thru.
I don’t know which is which in the photo, but we’ve got 5 Chiapas Purple, 4 1/2 Guadalajara ( I decapitated one🤬), a couple Traditional Oaxaca, with hopes of a couple more, and @George a few Coyacan ( Coyote x Oaxaca), a hybrid of my old strain and George’s 20 week Oaxaca, made by George😁(

Even the Chiapas sprouts were purple. Purple! .
Im told These were the only seeds ( just 5) of the Chiapas Purple and Guadalajara. Very small batch.
The purple is " the nicest Mexican Purple I’ve ever seen" and Guadalajara high is " very strong, like walking on pillows".
A couple others have grown the Traditional Oaxaca and are raving about it. Sad I only got two so far, but if I don’t get a male and female I have Cryptic Labs Oaxaca pollen to use, or my summers keeper 3 sisters plants, along with @TexasTea’s beauty.
I’m told these are all pure. Let’s hope so!
