Not yet, for the highest level of THC, you should consider harvesting when 70-90% of the pistils have changed color, and most of the trichomes are milky/ cloudy, this is when the bud is it's most potent.

How do you know when a Auto plant has gone into flowering?
Hi, I wanted to ask how do you know when a plant has gone into flowering mode? Is it from the weeks countdown? Or From the white pistols that start to form around the plant? I will at some point change my feeding doses and some plants are looking bigger than others??????

Autoflower: Harvesting in Sections
Hello growers! Some of the lower branches on my ladies are starting to grow into the light and are developing, but the top is close to being ready. I know it’s possible with a regular plant, but is it possible to harvest an auto flowering plant in parts without killing it? Thanks

We're entering week 13 here. Hopefully, I added adequate pictures for feedback. Should I go ahead and start flushing these next two weeks to prepare for harvest? A few pics and a video were uploaded to show what I see under a magnifying glass. Don't want to go to early or late.

How long until I should harvest my northern light?
She's at day 50 now and her pistils are already getting quite orangey/brown (see diary), which seems rather early to me, also compared to other diaries of her strain. How long (more or less ofcourse) would you reckon she still has before she should be harvested?

Should I defoliate during flower?
Should I defoliate during flower? I have two Green Crack plants growing right now. I am in early flower stage and one of the plant has some dense foliage under the SCROG canopy that is hurting light penetration and zapping energy I want the plant to use for growing dense buds.

Is this plant a boy?
So two of my plants have flowered, however a third seems somewhat shorter and doesn't seem to have Pistil. Is this plant not yet flowering, is it male, or is something else going in here. Looks healthy other than that.

What's happening to my little Gorilla Cookies?
My Gorilla Cookies is almost 8 weeks old (incl. germination) and shows many amber trichomes and some dried pistils, though many are still white. Orange Sherbet, same age and seedbank, is less mature. Temps were 32–33°C. Is this heat stress or early ripening?
