Ready to harvest? Help please
ottolokistarted grow question 6y ago
Just looking for advice on how long you think this has until harvest. Trichomes look a little white but could be from the light.
Any suggestions appreciated. Should I flush this one now?

Hey!
Isn't the clearest photos but those trichomes look cloudy to me..
Harvest window opens when you start getting amber pistils.
The best way to check is looking at the trichomes on the buds with a 60X magnifying loupe
Clear trichomes haven't reached their full potency, cloudy ones are full of THC and amber are losing THC while gaining CBN.
I harvest when after examining and finding 70% cloudy trichomes and 30% amber trichomes.
For me that's a prefect combination, depending on the strain as well.
With some strains I go with lower amount of amber trichomes but always attest 10%.
This really depends on what type of high your looking for.
As for what they look like, clear trichomes look like shiny glass, cloudy like plastic and amber like resin
Hope this helped.
Good luck and happy harvest!

Is it time to harvest yet or should I wait a bit longer?At the moment I'm seeing 89% cloudy, 10% red and 1% clear trichomes. It is not very clear from the photos but from what I'm seeing through the magnifying lens this is how it seems. There is significant yellowing but also many white pistils.

Edible out of fresh harvestHi, I'm not very much into smoking weed, more like eating edibles. In cause of financial and space problems, my plan is to make edibles stait out of the harvest or after the drying. My question is: Does the curing/fermentation effects the potency or effect of the weed?Buds. Other

Since day 1 I've had 3 different phenos of this GG grow.
Pheno 1 & 2 are pretty much at the same stage, but the pace of pheno 3 is 1-2 weeks behind the rest.
I'm not sure what to do as I plan to dry in my tent, a staged harvest isn't the best option
Any tips?

Harvest in 2 times, seeking advice, top big branch/buds first and then lowerNow 7 days from harvest. 3 plants with cloudy tricomes, no spottted ambar it's fine.
Is necessary to harvest in 2 times? Give a week more for the bottom "popcorn" buds and the third plant, shorter in shadow?
Should I cut whole largest branches entirely, or cut all at same height

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.6y ago

Weed smells dry like regular cut grass. What to do?I harvested parts of my laughing buddha and I've dried it for a few days now and the thing is, it smells like regular cut grass. When I touch it it smells like it's supposed to but when I open the jar it smells only like cut grass. Other plants have their unique smell tho. Help6y ago
