When is this Auto blueberry left?

[JimmyWie]

Hi,

This is my small auto Blueberry ( with lower branches polinated and by accident the top one ! ) How do i know when she is about ready to get chopped??
She was planted ( outdoors ) at 7-03-2010
Attached a photo with the bigger easyryder ( planted on 17-3-2010 ) this 1 wasent polinated!

So, any advise how to tell when i can chop my blueberry ? Can i chop off the non polinated branches off, butt how long more do i have to wait till i chop the polinated part?

Thanks,

Jimmy

You should be good to go now.

chop the top when you think its ready, but leave your seeded branches growing untill the plant looks dead and the seeds are popping out. if you chop before the seeds are ready you will ended up with weed full of useless seeds.
its hard if your relying on fast smoke and seeds from the same plant

Easy there jimmy

I dont think you really want to chop those ladies yet man, i'm looking at the pix and they are so green in the leaves still and you have much new pistils still forming. I'd say you could leave em another 2 or 3 weeks. Even if it says 8 weeks on the packet,you could have a 10 or even 12 week pheno. I'd recommend just taking little bits as needed until your leaves are starting to lose their greenness. Or better yet get yourself a magnifying glass and have a look at the trich heads and see if you have clear,milky or amber heads and what percentages they are in. i like 30% clear, 50% milky and 20% amber or as close as i can get to that but everyone is different. Hope this helps.

Peace!!

Yes, thank you for the reply's.
I know i cant chop the easyryder, i put in in the picture as something to compare it to. I did notice that almost al of the hairs on the blueberry turned brown, almost overnight. I did leave the plants outside yesterday (for the first time during the night). i thought i would be warm enough by now. Maybe the sudden cold could have stressed the plant a bit?

@ dargo, ill just leave the pollinated area, till it almost dies off..

Here i harvested yesterday my Auto Fem. Blueberry, witch i crossed with a Auto fem. Blueberry... Turned out 1 was male xD
i tried to do a selected pollination. Targeting the lower branches, i beleive a bit more got pollinated.

So for i found got these seeds on the picture + 24 extra i found this morning. I'm sure ill find even more when the plant is dried, i i cut her into smaller pieces for storage.

O, the left picture of my blueberry, below here is a A4 standaard sized paper, so u can see about how big ( or small ) my BB actually is. She has been trimmend on the picture, so hopefully evry thing you see is smokeable. except for the seeds and the stem .


I'm speed drying a small bit of the bud, hopefully i can taste it tonight.

nice one dude looks like you got some fine smoke and some good seeds.

now you can see whats shes like after you have chopped her down and trimmed her a bit do you wish that you had left her to go a bit longer?

 

[JimmyWie]

Nah, any longer and i think the weed would be onsmokeble.
Almost 90% of the seeds look perfect matured to me. not much need to wait longer, she was chopped yesterday though, so i did wait those few extra days

so far, weed isnt very strong but the high is long lasting. Probably because is also use here for seeds . Seed count is 140 i believe, with still some left .
