Loupe is definitely the most effective. If not available, you can go off of the color of the pistils as well as the breeders date or maybe a mix of both. If the pistils are majority brown that is a good sign it is ready. However, some strains have pistils that never fully brown and others have some that brown too early so going off of trichs is really the best option. Good luck!

Try with your cellphone zoom. Some good cameras can show you if its milky or transparent. Harvest when you can see some amber

When could I start to harvest?When do you guys think I could start harvesting? I’m in week 9 of a Fast Eddy CBD grow. This strain only had 9% THC so I didn’t know if this would mean the trichomes don’t go as milky.

I'm having an exceptionally hard time telling how close or far from harvest based on my trichomes. My eyes maybe not what they used to be. I...seem to see a mix from clear clear all the way to some Amber's. I'm using a jewelers lope and also zoom through camera etc. Lil help?Allen Iverson OG

What would you advise I do with my harvest/dry/cure?I got 2 weeks untill I am away for 2 weeks. Should I start flushing now and harvest it next week so she can start curing while I am away for 2 weeks I have no one to mind it or help me out so she will be unattended for 2 weeks and I don't want to fuck up my buds.

How close to harvest?This is my fourth grow and every time I'm doubting myself when I should chop her down.Can I get your opinions? All microscopic pics are on the buds and not the sugar leaves. To me it looks like I'm close, about a week? If I'm off a lot in my time can you explain why? Many thanks!Blueberry Pancakes x Agent Orange

Am I within the chop window?Currently on day 75 of this meph sour stomper. I feel like today is chop day, am I right ? I see mostly cloudy/amber on the calyxes and the leaves are discoloring - despite me not stopping the feed - which seems to indicate she's grabbing all the food she can and near done.

When can I start harvesting?Hey guys, how long do you think I’ve got till I can harvest? I’m keen to chop her but I don’t want to be too impatient. It’s week 9 of a Fast Eddy CBD and only has 9% THC, so I’ve no idea is that’ll effect the trichomes going milky or not.
