OGgrowsanswered grow question 5 years ago The most correct way to know if the plant is ready for harvest is to observe the trichomes with a loupe or microscope. The right time to harvest is when the trichomes in general are milky in color and one or other trichomes are amber in color. If you don’t have a magnifying glass, the second best way is the color of the pistils, you have to make a general assessment of the plant, the pistils must be 75% orange and 25% white and it is ready to harvest. if you pass these levels that I told you, the buds gave more high but lose quality in flavor, it's a matter of balance. in your case I would give them another 2/3 weeks to harvest. Good luck mate 👌🙏🍀
