Hello friend, the best time to harvest is when 80% of your trichomes are milky & the other 20% are a amber color another way to tell is when 80% of your pistols have turned from white to orange! Hope this helps & happy growing friend!✌️🏼

How should I harvest?
So we are 2 weeks out from harvest, but I’m wondering would it be more efficient to defoliate fan leaves and hang the plant upside down, or to cut it into multiple sections? At week 22 I believe in our diary we have more pictures.

To Freeze Dry or Not to Freeze Dry? That is the question...
Someone recommended freeze drying my harvested nugs. I've done research on it to a degree. Have you tried freeze dry weed and does anyone recommend it for quality rugs to be smoked?

Help with Drying
When i finish my grow and i harvest it allows me to enter weight. I see people with 10oz of a plant that i know isnt dry. I assume i should enter wet weight on harvest or weight until its dry and enter?

why use fans with drying process?
hello, i see that many use fans while the plant is drying and was wondering why that was, is it just to slow the drying process if the room is hot or does it improve the quality or? thanks

Blackberry Kush Harvest
Hello Growing Community, Is the Blackberry Kush ready to harvest or should I wait until week 12? There are some random amber trichomes, but not at 20% yet, I'm looking for a relaxing effect. If so my plan would to let her sit in the dark for 1-2 days, then chop. Thank you!

Turning lights off before harvesting
I've seen some growers who turn the lights off a couple of days before harvest, and I don't know why. Are there any benefits to doing this? or concerns?

I have 3 Gorilla Zkittlez at day 95. One is ready to chop, the other two are not quite there. I’m going on vacation for 7 days. Question: chop them early or let them remain unattended for a week? I usually water every 3-4 days, the plants haven’t gone 7 days without water. WYD?

Ready to chop for not too minimal couch lock?
The main top cola looks pretty done with a few amber trichomes. Id like the rest of the plant to be good though, does the rest of these macro shots from the lower nugs look good enough? I want almost all clear with a few ambers so not too couch locked.

RH and Temp settings good for tent in bathroom?
I set up a Govee automation in my basement bathroom. My tent is set up with a sensor inside and when it gets down to 58% humidity it turns on a humidifier. Once it gets to 60% it turns off. Should this be good with an inline fan going on low the whole time? Room is 55-60F.

Harvest preferences - substrate/trim wet or dry
Just some brain picking! How do y'all like to harvest? How many of you leave your plant to dry in the substrate (if soil or Coco)? How many of you harvest it from wet substrate for longer drying time? I know it'll depend on environment differences, but v curious! Same q for trim
