I've never smoked weed and don't like smoking, but watching this plant grow so well feels pretty nice. This is the only cannabis plant growing on my farm.

It will look like this once it's dried. This is from last year. @0xbitcoiner @koob @fm

I can see they're not very good and it looks like I'm seeing seed pods, it's not good to get seeds!

Yes, for smoking purposes, maybe. But since this is for medicinal purposes, it can still be used fully.

The buds don't look very developed, how long until harvest? Indica or sativa?

21 sats \ 2 replies \ @suraz OP 4 Feb

It will take about a month for the buds to fully develop. Once they're fully matured, we can cut them, let them dry for a few days, and then we can store.

With a month to go, you shouldn't expect very big buds. You don't know if it's indica, sativa or 50/50?

I am not familiar with the variant, here we simply call it ganja.

6-8 weeks I'd guess

20 sats \ 11 replies \ @0xbitcoiner 4 Feb

It shouldn't be too long because this is the normal (6 indica, 8 sativa) time for the entire flowering (bloomming) phase.

I was mostly going based on how much of the season remains in the southern hemisphere. 6 is shorter than I'm familiar with unless it's been bred for fast flowering. It's also definitely a sativa dominant strain based on the leaves.

If it's grown from seed the flowering period could be as long as 10 weeks, especially outdoors.

Most people harvest too early too and neglect that the trichromes are immature.

Though it's winter here, there's strong sunshine during the daytime. So, I think it won't take more than a month for them to fully develop. I can already see small grains forming inside. But clearly i don't know about it's variants.

sativa dominant strain based on the leaves.

Good catch! Less leaves and narrower. Whether it's from seed or clones I don't think makes any difference, but you're right about outdoors, it slows down development and takes much longer, especially for sativas.

just use a magnifying glass and look at the color of the trichomes.

more or less tricomes, when the first rains arrive, you have to cut.. you can risk, but its a pain to lose many plants to mold

I mostly meant that seeds are less predictable - genetic lottery and all.

missed that part :)

They grow so fast that they're super rewarding to grow.

indeed.. but the day you kill them is not fun.. plus the back pain for trimming.. good thing is you already have the medicine to aliviate pain :)

0 sats \ 1 reply \ @k00b 4 Feb

Trimming a single plant isn't so bad. Then again, I spend 12+ hrs per day on a computer so I'm used to the trimming posture.

hehehe, one is doable.. but when you have like 20, even if you choose 4 or 5 its a lot of work..

dont stop until you have something like this

Is this plant similar to the one I showed?

0 sats \ 0 replies \ @fm 4 Feb

Probably a selected strain.. but they indeed share DNA

Wow!! The photo is very good 📸.. If it is the only one you are growing on your farm...

What will you do when it reaches its adult size?

7 sats \ 1 reply \ @suraz OP 4 Feb

Dry it and store it, and my mom is going to use it for some medicinal purposes. Or maybe I'll steal to give to a friend who smokes it just like last time. Haha
