Seeds will be ready before the buds. To know when a seed has matured it will start to pull away from the husk and split. Will be able to see a dark seed inside.
Pick the seed from the bud and peel the husk open it and let dry over night. If seed turns black /brown it's done. If stays white/green still needs time.
As for buds to be ready; wait till see 80-90% of the hairs turn orange/red and then look at the buds trichomes and should see them white milky and have mushroom shaped tops.

this i not because i want to pull them early thia is because i want knowledge before hand and im not working with a autoflower or fem. crop before this the buds became big a airy. before that was dense and preme. i found some plants in pre flower to week 3 or so. ill take more pictures and maybe some one can let me know. im not very documented but im getting better and will keep working on it.

unless this is your only ever grow ( as in, no more planned in the future) chill out bro.
I can tell you much different than what Is already, well documented online on here and other sites as to when to harvest.
Good luck

1st Method to Identify Harvest Time: Pistil Method
Harvest when 70-90% of hairs have darkened for highest levels of THC.
Harvest when 90-100% of hairs have darkened for a more calming,
anti-anxiety effect as some THC turns to the more relaxing CBN.
2nd Method to Identify Harvest Time: Trichome Method
For the “strongest” marijuana buds with the most psychoactive effects, and the highest levels of THC, harvest when almost all trichomes are cloudy/milky

Get a 60x lighted jeweler's loop to inspect trichomes on the buds not the sugar leafs. Seeded buds stop growing when they become pollinated. Harvest when the trichomes are to your liking. I prefer 20-30% amber. Hopefully this helps.🤟😜

How to reduce yield? (without reducing quality)Can I prune down to 3 or 4 colas? When? Or better to let it grow normally and compost the extra? I've found it too easy to grow way more than I can use. Especially when I experiment with different varieties. I'm also thinking it might be easier to spot pests etc. with less colas?Buds. Other

Pre-harvest CareMy question is related to harvest techniques. I have seen where several diaries talk about water restrictions the last 1-2 days prior to harvest and also about placing the plant(s) in the dark for 4-7 days prior to harvest. I would like to hear from the master growers on it. TYBuds. Other

Suintement / gouttelettesJ'aimerais recueillir vos avis concernant le suintement observé sur mon plant de cannabis, qui a été placé dans l'obscurité totale au cours des dernières heures. Une substance sucrée semble s'écouler sous forme de petites gouttelettes. Dois je n'inquiéter pour le séchage ?

My Girl's Gone Rogue with 10cm of Frosty Goodness!My lady decided to shatter the whole "week 10 harvest" and instead shoot 10cm, packing new flowers whiter than a yeti's behind in a blizzard!
This genetic curveball beats me.
Do I let her keep this frosty stretch, or do I harvest and let this mutant masterpiece become a solo act

Small bud and faint smellHi everyone!
I am concerned that my buds have a very faint odor (you have to almost touch the plant with your nose to smell it well).
Could it be because I have a powerful fan? Or will the herb take on an odor over time or after drying?
