trim before drying?
jamjam887766
started grow question 6y ago
I just started drying. Should I have trimmed off the small fan leaves before hanging? Does it make a difference?

It’s all preference imo... it’s easier to leave them on and just pull them off once dried, rather than cutting each one off. I take the time and get the larger one’s off, but you’ll be fine either way!

I've read many reviews on both on forums, mostly prefer the "dry trim" due to many reasons. try searching for this term.

Once again I must ask, is it ready for harvest?
Pistols are anywhere from 60-80% orange depending on the cola, and the trichomes are mixed, I see some clear, I see milky and I see amber.We're mid week 8 of flower as well. If it's close enough should I ice the pot and start my 2 days of darkness now?

When to jar the buds after drying?
Hey guys! Advice says prune and jar when the branches snap but not completely break. Roger that, but when the smaller branches snap, do i also prune and jar the buds coming from the main stem? Or do i need to wait until the stem does the same? ✌️

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.
