    Default Day 63 browning Sage buds.....to chop or not to chop

    Hi Guys,

    Wondering if these babies need to come down?

    Day 63 of a 70-77 flowering cycle.

    PK13/14 twice in the last 9 days, two just water since.

    Last PK13/14 feed had Power to Bloom blue dust added and then 5 days later a light Umph spray.

    I've heard conflicting stuff about spraying the buds. I only did it half hour before the lights went off to avoid burn and only done it twice. Think I drenched one the first time, sent it very brown and I cut it on day 50, very disappointed. And then smoked it and to my amazement it was luuuuuuvly!

    Looking forward to these ones!

    Shall I chop?

    Got to admit they don't look half as browned off in the pics......mmmmmm.......they've just changed colour dramactically in the last 48 hrs

    Thanks in advance for any advice

    They look like they could do with another week as theres quite a few white pistils still... You could probably chop now tho, depends how you like your high..

    Have you checked the trichs under a loupe etc?

    And i would be worried about them turning brown overnight? You sure they arnt going moldy? What do you mean turning brown, the pistils or the actual buds/plants?

    I wouldnt be spraying them at all during flower tbh...

    I agree dont spray em lights on or off this far into flower, lights off u increasing the chance of botrytis, and lights on they will get burnt and raised humidity increasing chance of botrytis. And u want to get a loupe or microscope to check the trichomes, it makes life so much easier when u know what u aiming for with a strain regards effect and readiness. U might want to hang on as well as buds often swell and put out many new pistils towards the end especially on flush.
