The buds have really swellen this week, but they still need a bit more time, especially the lower ones. The top buds are starting to look great—big and dense—but the lower buds are still catching up.
I'm thinking about doing a staggered harvest, taking the top buds first and letting the lower ones finish up. I need to read up a bit more on this method before deciding.
Overall, things are looking good, just need a bit more patience👍
@allways_beginner, No I didn't flush her. Haven't dived into drying yet. Will definitely do some research there. My initial plan was just to trim the branches and hang them in the tent until they are dry, but it sounds like there might be a better way to go about it.
Thanks for your input!
those amber leave trichomes are mostly possible due to friction with your hands or tools when you check the plants...
wait at least 3 more weeks until she stop producing new flowers (white pistils) then check bud trichomes, not leaves (leaves are most susceptible to friction)
overall is looking fantastic! good job
