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.🤟😜

Been very Humid the past 3 Weeks. Rainfall increased too in South Germany.
Treated it with Neem Oel. I think/hope it stopped spreading. Been observing it for a week now and always treating it with a very thin mixture of Neem Oel.

Help!! Do I harvest?About 50% milky, 40% clear trichome heads. But in some minor spots, they are all dark brown/amber. Its supposed to be a Forbidden Cherry Automatic (Dutch Passion), but did not turn purple. I want it to be a bit more relaxing, indica-like. Week 11, outdoor balcony grow.

Bract/calyx turning brownHey fellow growmies,
i noticed brown bract/calyxes on one of my plants. (week 12, auto, 20 % amber)
Iwasnt't worried until I found them inside of some buds while checking for budrot.
Should I be concernend (cut the buds), or is this just the circle of the plant life or genetics?

Plant Topped Itself at 3rd node? Stress or mutation/morphology?This plant split into two shoot apical meristems at 3rd node, I think? Is this due to stress, or a plant morphology/mutation? Pic 1 = weeks before pic 2. Pic 2 = 3rd node & 2 stems. Pic 3 = strain name.

Too many colas? (Serious)I'm scared that I have too many colas. I have to continuously trim leaves to avoid humidity hotspots. The internodal distance is super short. All branches are stripped from all leaves except the ones visible from above (3-4). I am afraid that the buds won't have enough space

Will this tape repair a broken stem?Should I re-wrap this broken stem? Bent with too much pressure and there was a snap, though not completely severed. I applied two or three layers of duct tape, not sure if the constant pull of ties will allow it to heal and repair. When should I take the tape off?

Edible out of fresh harvestHi, I'm not very much into smoking weed, more like eating edibles. In cause of financial and space problems, my plan is to make edibles stait out of the harvest or after the drying. My question is: Does the curing/fermentation effects the potency or effect of the weed?Buds. Other

How tall will they grow to be?How tall will these outdoor untrained, soil based photoperiod plants grow to be (best rough guess)?
I believe they're a sativa-dominant Sour strain (either Ultra Sour or S.A.G.E and Sour bag-seed).
Currently over 1 meter tall from soil at 60 days old in 7 Gallon pot.

Fall RecoveryHow is the seedling looking? She took a fall yesterday afternoon and I immediately rescued her as I could and repotted into final 3 gallon fabric pot (actually 5 gallon but only had enough Coco Loco for 3 gallons). Thank you for the read, happy growing and learning. :)
