Hi growers, what do you think about the maturity, ripe enough? I think it is around 50% brown. Therefore probably a few more days!?
Thanks for your answers or comments.
The leaves are dark green probably from too much nitrogen.
For ripeness, it looks like you have at least 4 weeks left. You want 90% of the hairs to turn at a minimum. You're better off going by trichomes though (30% amber to 70% milky is the way).
Good news is that your buds should get around 50% bigger in the upcoming weeks.
Hello women and guys ,
I have 2 levels of ripeness in my plant.
By looking at the 2 photos I think one is a week away from harvest or maybe 2. The other one shows immature buds that would enjoy 4 more weeks.
What’s are you thoughts about it?
take care with suggested time for harvest! They might smell very good by now, but they are far from being at top production of trich!

I think you have 4-6 weeks left for both. In nearly every strain, you want the pistils to redden and start to curl back inward. When 90% of them have done this, you are in the early harvest window.
Grab a magnifying glass and check the trichomes. You're probably less than 50% cloudy. Clear trichomes contain THC-A which is absolutely useless. Don't harvest too early, your buds could double in size before they're ripe (and more than that in potency)!
PATIENCE,,,, the hardest part( after watering) in growing
at least 3 more weeks for the lady
and you can harvest in stages,,, the mature part first, the other part later
Hia, i have been harvesting for a week, the 2nd today. The different stages of maturity made me choose this easy way to do. Look at the photo.
What do you think about it? Do many of you choose this way or always in one go?
Thanks
I did do it once, but I think it is counter productive, the lower buds did ripen up alot more, but the yield was small, the buds were small and airy/fluffy and it took another 4 weeks or so.... So a better option is to prune as much of the lowers off as you can before flowering them
It all depends on the plant and the flush if she had not been flushed properly or for atleast 5 days for me then I wont touch her but if she has had enough flush and the buds on the top are getting fresh growth and fresh hairs I will usually wait until the new growth matures abit before chopping her. I will usually do it all in one go but it depends on the maturity of the buds in the under canopy. if they are not mature and need light I will do a partial harvest it just makes sense to give the lower buds time to mature just like the main colas and they cant do that without good light :) Though its your plant bro you do what you want :) Happy growing :)
