Ty spinner, and others for the advice and comments!! I literally harvested a few days after you had commented mate as i didnt want to take it too far either way..happy with the outcome so far.

Personally I look for the following to determine if she’s ready to harvest... if you have a loupe or other way of looking at the trichomes, the trichomes should all be milky white with some amber, not clear or cloudy. I additionally look for most of the hairs to have curled in and darkened (the hairs may be red, orange, or brown depending on the strain). And I look for the buds to have swollen up. One more good indication is when the older fan leaves start turning yellow/brown and falling off, like a tree in autumn. It looks like you’re damn close now to me. Good luck! 👍

Hi @Gmalin105! This looks like a cal/mag deficiency, this may have happened because of wrong pH in your feedings, or too much Potassium. Do you check your pH? I would stop pk13/14 now and give her a good flush for a few days, only plain pH'd water. Then if she's not showing signs of recovery (on new growth) after a week, add some cal/mag to the water and see how it goes. Hope this helps, keep us up-to-date and happy growing 👊

7 liters even with "gorgeous " UK weather and auto seems small without nutrients. Think she needs some .

Congrats on the harvest 💪 ! What trichomes ratio did you choose ?😁

Hi @Gmalin105! Pistils are not the best way to tell when the buds are ready, for sure "red/brown/curly" pistils are a clue, but you cannot be accurate with pistils. The best way to ensure you're in the harvest window, is to take a daily close look at the trichomes, using a good magnifier or a microscope. You can find cheap handheld microscopes in your local growshop. You need to start this daily inspection once 50% of the pistils have turned red/brown/curly, so you can understand the whole trichomes maturation process and find the perfect harvest day. Trichomes will evolve, from "thin/clear/transparent" to "fat/milky/cloudy/opaque" and finally end their life by getting "amber/brown". Here's a good picture describing this evolution: http://www.cactusmartorell.com/blog-de-cannabiculture/wp-content/uploads/2016/01/evolution_trichomes.jpg. On this picture, the harvest window is on the 2 squares in the middle, with cloudy/milky trichomes. Indeed, harvesting too soon when trichomes are still clear will result in a headache weed, with low potency and bad high. Harvesting too late when the trichomes have turned amber will result in a couch-locking weed, with high amounts of CBN&CBD, but you'll loose some THC. Depending on the effects you want, you need to harvest when most of the trichomes are milky/cloudy/white, or when you'll see 20~30% of amber trichomes. I like energetic high so I usually cut when they're milky, just when the first amber trichomes have appeared. From what I see on your last pictures, I think you still have 2 to 3 weeks before harvest, you can give another meal with fertilizer, then you could use a ripening product for a few days, then flush with plain pH'd water until trichomes are ready. Hope this will help, I'll be around, keep us up-to-date and enjoy your last days with your babies 👊

i love this strain, soo tastefull!! good luck

She is pretty looking. Might be a little overwatered on the last pic? Leaves look a little down, nothing severe.

Nice plant. Will follow. Good luck. Maybe some light nutes? Consider.

I agree ,even for my first grow i should have gone 12l at least. Any recommendations on nutes?

Going to try and a little bloom this week. Yeah that was a day i over compensated for this lovely weather mate.
