Hello @Missionninja, ! That's a sativa so you've got 3 "launch windows" : 1st- Harvest when most of the trichomes are clear = clean & energetic high. 2nd - when they are mostly cloudy =the perfect balance (to me). 3rd - when they are 30%amber and more = sedative/couch lock . According to your pictures somes leaves have cloudy trichomes while some have mostly amber trich , so you should also take a look at the calyxes/buds/sugar leaves on differents parts of the plant to get a general idea of your trichomes maturation as it could change from a bud site to another. You'r the only one who can tell us how close you are from harvest based on your favourite trichomes ratio. I hope it will help you bro 😁👍
Athosanswered grow question 6 years ago
Thricomes have 3 very distinct stages: clear, which is an inmature thricome; cloudy, a mature thricome with peak THC and amber, degrading THC.
You will never get all thricomes to be at the same stage, the idea is to harvest when most of them are cloudy, with the minority clear or amber.
From your pictures, your plant looks ready go ahead and harvest.

Defoliate now?I normally don't ask more than one question a week, but I believe I'm at a critical point with my wedding glue. She hasn't grown at all in the last 2 days at 14.5". I haven't defoliated yet because of stretch, but I think she's done. Should I defoliate or wait a few more days?

To Defol or Not to Defol? That is the question.Week 10 question for Wedding Glue.
I know there is a lot of controversy over trimming autoflowers. Let's say it's semi safe. She's super bushy again. Should I do another defoliation? OR wait another few days? I'm worried about timing. I have very little left. Thanks all!

Light DefoliationLooking for suggestions and opinions on "light defoliation".
What percentage of leaves are removed during a light defoliation? This is for my short bushy Wedding Glue. Should I just remove the biggest fan leaves and call it a day? Thanks all!

Lower growth removalok so Ive let the girls grow with very lit to almost no training except leaf tucking. My ? is when can I remove all this lower growth. I haven't removed anything cause my growth has been explosive and don't want to slow it. When can I safely remove all the lower growth w/o harm?

Just Stopped Stretch! - Gotta Do, What I Gotta Do?Against protocol I have hacked on this plant in Week 8. Way branchy! I got into pruning a dozen long scraggly lower runners. I could take out another 12+ wimpy branches easy and open it up good bit for light/air - and then leave it alone? Much anticipated waste, so gamble?Week 8

To defoliate or not (auto flower flowering stage)?Hi All,
As per the title, the plant looks great to me (week 9), but I do wonder whether I should defoliate? I'm running 200w of LEDs for the one plant so no shortage of light. I realise 200w is rather over the top based on the daily light integral.
Thoughts?

When is a good time to start pruning?When is a good time to start pruning? She is about 10 inches tall and is short and VERY bushy. Has several leaves hidden from light and so I am thinking of pruning today. However I don't want to do it too soon. So far my pruning has been VERY minimal. Thoughts?

General questions about my growBased on week 5 of my grow, does it sound like I'm on track with nutrients? Any advice on LST or defoliation? The plants struggled since I planted them so I wary of stressing them out. The only thing I'm doing at this point is tucking the leaves so the bud sites get more light.a year ago
