Hey Paganrich I have 8 plants sitting in the dark for 3 days before harvest to increase resin production,maybe the lights on and off gave them enough darkness to cause them to stress and produce more resin

Hey up mate, how you keeping & hope you`re well in yourself. Like splitting the stems I tried darkness and didn`t find much happened. I`ve been wary of this 24hrs darkness before flip and at end of harvest as I haven`t seen anything special come out of it either but that could just be me. Do you 3 days darkness every time?

Mutant Girl aka Red Dragon....Slowly moving towards harvesting...reckon a-ways still to go. Pic 1-2 shows the lass, Pic 3 shows mutant 3 bud head site. I`m not growing this lass again as strain reviews state anxiety can be a slight issue and that`s not going to help me so this is a one off but if I was I`d flip her around the 20-25" height next time if possible due to just how short this lass was, as a comparison.

A sad day really...Red Diesel is ready for the chop. I`m going to lightly stress her overnight but really she`s good to go and I`ve a free day tomorrow due to the sheer volume of rainwater that seems to be falling all around me for days on end now. So, a relaxed and leisurely trim awaits. Final entry after this will be Red Dragon`s ha

no this is the first time .Like you I havent really seen any real change so I figure to give it one more chance at 3 days , now that being said I harvested 2 kush bombs and a Northers Lights yesterday and I still didnt notice a huge difference in them, I tried that splitting the stem once to but to no avail how are you doing it and have you notice a huge change

Red Diesel post harvest....wet weigh would suggest 21/4 - 21/2 ounces when dry and cured....buds are very dense like a Critical Kush`s and oily when squeezed. Going to be hard nuggets when done and very pleased with outcome. I only aim for 2-4 ounces per plant and so, for a first grow with this strain I`m happy. Future grows are going to have a bit more space as yields are steadily growing bigger and I don`t want to build up a surplus as I enjoy just growing, so cutting back on my girls. Very therapeutic for my head space
