Caps turning purple
    #19034471 - 10/26/13 07:45 AM (11 years, 2 months ago)

I'm sure this is a newb question, this is my first grow, second flush. I am working with the standard PF tek with the strain GT.

I have been noticing that my large fruits caps are not as gold as the first flush, do these look healthy?





Thanks for all the help!

Just spores. It's recommended to pick them right as the veil breaks to prevent spores from dropping.

Those guys however are ripe and ready to be plucked. :thumbup:

Perfect  I appreciate the feedback. I ended up harvesting the two front cakes, total of 62g wet. Should make for a fun hike this afternoon.

Thanks again!!!

Should pick them a little earlier, I always think its pretty wild when the spores drop from under the cap and end up on top of it

That is what threw me off, I didn't expect to find them on top of the cap. Thanks for info!!
