Issue #594 - Sunday, September 10, 2023 Dear Fellow Grower, In today's issue... - It's that time of year! If you're growing outdoors in the northern hemisphere, harvest time might be drawing near for your cannabis plants living out in the sun. Do you know what your plants look
like when they're ready to be harvested? This knowledge is worth its weight in...well, weed. So make sure you know the best time to harvest your plants and make sure you're getting the most from your efforts. Let's learn to judge a flowering plant's readiness!
- Looking for harvest supplies? Look no further. I put together a list of all the most useful tools for harvest time!
- Kushberry Moonrocks is in the strain spotlight.
This new strain offers some serious yields and potency in an easy-to-grow package.
- I have to give you a fair warning. The "Trophy Pictures of the Week" section is fantastic, but you need to be careful. It's a section filled with absolute giants, so be careful where you tread down there. The last thing we want is for one of our readers to get injured under a behemoth cannabis plant. I'm not saying you're in real danger, but I would be mindful of
the size of these plants...

When Are Outdoor Buds Ready to Harvest? 🌄🌱➡🌅🌳 |
|
|
For the northern hemisphere, outdoor harvest season happens during September and October (depending on your latitude and the strains you're growing). That means harvest time is coming soon! But when it comes to growing weed outdoors, figuring out the perfect time to harvest is both an art and a science. Getting the harvest timing just right rewards you with maximum yields of the best
quality buds. Today’s tutorial on when to harvest outdoor marijuana plants will tell you what to look for when it comes to bud maturity, and then I’ll show you a ton of pictures so you don’t have to do any guesswork (even if your buds don’t look like most other strains). When to harvest outdoor cannabis plants? Find out in today’s outdoor harvest tutorial. What To Look For: Cannabis buds come in all shapes and sizes! Although variety is the spice of life, it can make it a little confusing to know when to harvest your buds based on how your plants look. Especially as an outdoor grower because outdoor buds often look a little
different from buds grown indoors. For example, the buds are often leafier (though not always), or have other morphological differences. As a general rule... Too early to harvest when... - Many white hairs on buds are still sticking straight out
Ready to harvest when... - Most hairs have darkened and curled in
Note: If you know the
weather is going to turn freezing cold or rainy, it's better to harvest early to prevent the chance of bud rot. Too Early to Harvest

"I started to manifold this plant but only made it to 4 main kola's. Pic was taken 8-22. I call this plant gender confused. Because I can't tell if it's male or female. Started from regular seeds I have. I crossed 2 strains 2 years ago and have had good results. The plant that's red is from the same bunch of seeds but look at the difference. The plant in the grow bag next to the red bucket is a ILGM purple Punch." ~John I know you planted these, but they look ancient. Are we positive these plants weren't around during the dinosaur times? 🐱🐉 ~Sirius |
[No description included] ~Becky We featured some of Becky's pictures last week, but I found more pics she sent and I just had to post these. I mean, just look at 'em! ~Sirius "Dear Neb and Sirius Farside, I commend y'all on your articles. First off this is an Autoflower that I started with the intention of manifolding it. So I went down to my
young plants,2 of them. A big rat had chewed the top off this girl at second set of leaves so I figured she was fubar. Watered her with horse manure tea every two wks. Pouted for around three weeks but grew and grew and then exploded into this two plant wildchild. She is eight foot tall. Autoflower Scooby snacks. Around 6-7 foot
wide." ~Leathergal Wow, this is the definition of "bouncing back". I bet this plant put out a hit on the fat rat that chewed on it. 💀🐀💀 ~Sirius Farside

"This dance is called 'Your Auto Warranty Is Expiring'" |
"Hammer Says: Seriously, your auto warranty is expi-" As you read this newsletter on a Sunday morn, possibly with a delicious coffee in your hands, I urge you to be thankful for what you have. You see, I initially wrote a rap in the style of M.C. Hammer to accompany the picture above. It was so bad, that I printed it out just so I could throw it away. If I hadn't disposed of those awful lyrics, you'd be
subjected to them right now. But it gets worse... I foolishly asked AI to spare me further embarrassment and write another rap in the style of MC Hammer. To my surprise, it was somehow even worse than the one I wrote. In fact, the rap was so bad that I am now officially against AI in all of its forms. I know this section is supposed to tell you to avoid scams, but I just wanted you to know how close you came to reading some of the worst "rhymes" that have
existed...ever. Also, watch out for scammers. The holidays are getting closer and scammers love buying presents with other people's money. Make sure to watch out for seed scams! Remember: Real seed businesses don't contact you. They let you contact them. If anyone messages you to sell you seeds on social media, look out! It's possible they will take your payment and send nothing. Always take a second to think before sending money to
anyone, especially if they contact you (whether by DM, text message, phone call, email, etc.). Recommended Cannabis Seed Sources

(which appeared in last week's newsletter) is a toolbox for growers who are dealing with "lazy" plants that refuse to flower in an urgent fashion. Figure out what you can do when it seems like your plants have been flowering for eons. Sometimes it's the strain, sometimes it's something you need to do, but sometimes, it's just an informational problem. Auto-Flowering Cannabis Strains Guide - I'm growing two photoperiod plants in DWC tubs, in a 4x4 tent and it's going pretty darn well if I say so myself. But I have this sneaking suspicion in the back of my mind: Photoperiod plants in DWC are pretty cool, but are autos in Autopots even cooler? "Autos in Autopots" definitely sounds cooler. I don't think we can call it an "Auto-auto" grow because it might be too
cool. 7 Tips to Improve Cannabis Bud Quality - Imagine a person who loves weed, but demands that the quality of their weed be low. Not that the price be low, or even the potency...they just want low quality. Does that sound absolutely bonkers to you? Good, because it sounded so unbelievable to me that it was physically hard to type it out.
