Jeanpolstarted grow question 6 years ago
When should I make the harvest (according to the colour of the trichomes) if I want to get the maximum of CBD? Some people say THC is degraded in CBD (late harvest), some say it is the opposite (early harvest ). I'm not interested in CBN. I would like to get the maximum of CBD. Thank you !!

Degrading THC turns into CBN, not CBD. For CBD strains you harvest as normal, when thricomes turn white/milky

Maximum potency is when all the trychomes are milky. if they are amber they are oxidised which means it's already too late. As many trychomes as cloudy as possible is the best for maximum potency. Good luck with the harvest, i will follow for some cool pics ! 🚀

Hey there jeanpol so regarding the high cbd strains, from friends who've grown them they continually told me that their cbd strains had to be harvested earlier than their high thc sisters . I believe this is because the more you let them go the higher their thc levels can get. Id say just give it time and try to harvest them when the majority of their pistils have slowed growth, discolored and curled inwards. If you can watch for more milky trichromes do, but you may not get to the typical vision of a low cbd strain(milky/amber). With your recent rains etc can they be moved inside at night? This may help slightly at least to avoid pooling of water droplets that are a mildew/mold/fungus dream home.
Happy harvesting ✌️

??When should I do the last defoliation ??I hear a lot never to do anything in flower that would stress the plants,pistols are showing but no solid buds. I want to hear what you guys have gone through. I’m kinda worried if I do I might hurt them more than help. Thank you in advance for your time.

Should I remove some of the dense foliage as I start LST, or wait? Other suggestions appreciated!The Durban Poison and Jack 47 are very dense, with tight nodes. I’m beginning LST this week to get more light to more of the branches, but should I prune some of the excess foliage? If so, how do I decide what to remove? Thanks in advance for your help!

Defoliation in mid-late floweringCan I still be defoliating in week 5-6 of flowering? The buds seem quite leafy and a lot of the lower sites aren't getting light, I feel like if I removed some of the larger fan leaves on top it would let the full cola grow thick bud sites rather than just the tops?
