Are my plants ready

Rob96started grow question 4 years ago
Are my plants ready, they are getting drier and leaves crisping up, I keep checking trichomes every day but too much amber yet just odd bits, I'm trying to hold out a little for a heavier stony high like a night time smoke but not wanting to go too far and ruin it, any advice

Heya! Kind of hard to tell by the picture but, if you judge by the pistils usually 70-90% ambered is a good time to harvest. The best way is to use a small microscope or jewelers loupe to have a glance at the trichromes. Most people harvest when all the trichromes are milky to 30% amber. If you harvest with more milky trichs it will produce more of a head high effect, where as more amber trichromes will give you the couch lock effect. I would suggest looking at the trichs if you can, I have had plants ready to harvest with lots of white pistils left still and some where they were all brown. Cheers and good luck!
