When would be the best time to harvest this particular satvia plant for peak taste and potency?? I have heard if you harvest earlier rather than later the effects might differ?? Any advise would be very helpful,thanks.

Hello ! Robert C. Clarke – in his book “Marijuana Botany” – states:
When resin trichomes are near their THC concentration peak, they have a translucent colour since the plant is still producing resin in the trichome glands.
At this moment, THC production is at its peak, while CBD levels are still low and stable, since molecules quickly become THC.
Terpene – aromatic molecules – production is also at its peak, developing gorgeously aromatic floral clusters.
Many growers harvest their cannabis plants at this moment because they prefer a more clear and cerebral psychoactive effect.
At this moment, THC has few sedative effects due to low CBD and CBN levels

Defoliation regularity helpJust wondering how often I should be doing defoliation? At the moment I’m kind of snipping off a few leaves n new growth as I see them each day. Is that too frequent? Should I wait n do a good amount at once maybe every week?Week 4

Defoliate further or stop?I am in 3rd week of flower. I did defoliation right before switch to flower and at the end of second week. That was 5 days ago.
I feel I want to defoliate more, to expose more lower buds to light, but I afraid it will be contra productive. What do you think?

Should I defoliate?Do you think i should defoliate? There are really a lot of leaves for being 21 days old, and 3-4 of them are the size of a man's hand. She did not stretch too much till now, so there's a huge amount of leaves in a small space.
I made LST these last 2 days, not going to top. Thx

Remove leafs(defoliation) and new shoots?After 7weeks and 3days of vegetation. And some LST.
Should I remove the large leaves and the new shoots that are coming off the branch from each topbud? (For the purpose of entering more light and those "topbuds" reach the correct level)4 years ago
