Thanks Po Boy. Hoping they other two have more orange hairs today. Gonna check when the lights come on. The other one that i cut has about another day to dry for the big buds and colas. The stems bend but dont snap or break yet.
So i read up on the white hairs problem that i was having and i believe it is called "foxtailing". Does this sound like a viable answer. I viewed some pictures and they look very similar to what i have going on. Would cutting them while they are doing this be a problem? It seems like the fan leafs are dying but are still no completely dead/falling off the plant. Its kinda a weird thing they having going on.
Nice grow dude:clap: From what Ive seen and heard the color of the hairs is not that important as to when you harvest. The only thing that matters is the color of the trichomes, although Im not a growing genuis so I could be wrong
again, nice grow! all my nl autos finish between 77-82 days. how was the odor during the grow? mine are low odor but i have had a couple that u could smell to the high heavens! enjoy the smoke.
The one that I cut was pretty smelly. My fan is overpowered so my scrubber doesn't work as well. I could smell them about 20ft away if the wind was blowing right!! I gave a sample to my friend and he had a 6ft bubble of smell around him!! And it was in a ziplock. Haha. Gonna check the plants again tomorrow and see if the are ready. The only reason I'm not cutting is because they are still really green!!
Well i got a final weight of the first one. Came in at 19g +2g i gave to a friend yesterday so 21g. Was really hoping for an oz each but it looks like the other 2 are going to over an Oz(hopefully 
) and it will make up for it. The smoke is very good and has a nice flavor to it. I plan on cutting the other 2 saturday and then getting a weight for you guys. Its been an awesome experience so far!!!

Also how do you guys feel about reusing soil/mediums? I would figure that they would need a good fresh water flush then be fine. Anything special to add?

So I over dryed them a little bit. Put them in the jar and after about 12hrs my RH was 56%. Anything I can do to put moisture back into them. I read about a moist cotton ball in aluminum foil with holes in it or use orange peels. Anything else that you guys know of?

Boveda humidity paks. I have 62% humidity paks and yet work great. It won't fix your over drying problem but it will help a bit. Unfortunately there isn't a whole lot you can do to save the taste and smell.
