That's very odd that they didn't go milky at all. Maybe it's the way you are viewing them? Lighting can sometimes make milky and clear trichs look similar. If you are seeing a fair bit of amber then I would go ahead and harvest. The buds look nice and full and dense so they seem mature to me. The longer you let it go the more sleepy the high will be. If you like how the tester smoked then pull and dry it now. If you what you tried didn't give you enough of that couchlock body high then let em go a bit longer.

Bud sites look pretty mature to me, harvest in my opinion is always up to you on what type of high you are looking for. The more Amber trichs you have, the stronger your high but you don't want to many.i prefer 10-20% on most my strains. I would say if you've sampled the product and like the high then flush her for a few days- week and then chop her down. Your trichs should be mostly milky at this stage of growth but they can be hard to view depending on your scope. Hope this helps. Happy growing!

Northern Lights Auto, quite short and bushy, fan leaves shielding light - should I defoliate?First time grower with a quite short Northern Lights Auto in week 6. The fan leaves seem to shield a lot of light from the inner leaves, also touching ground. Should I trim the fan leaves? Or should I keep them, since it already seems stressed enough for it's short life…

Defoliation late in flower on Auto's I like to defoilate, If I were to pick majority of the fan leaves off of these plants being Auto's, will they react or stress too much? I like to defoil near the end of flower to really push all the focus to the budsites. Happy Growing!

Removing of Big Leafs in Flower Phase ????Does it make sense to remove large leaves in the flowering phase to give the plant the opportunity to send more energy into the flowers or should you leave the larger leaves on because the plant also photosynthesises through them.

Defoliation Autoflower Hey fellow growers, How should I approach defoliation with autoflowers during flowering? I'm thinking of removing lower leaves, especially near the soil. I prefer to be cautious to avoid mistakes. Reddit wasn't helpful as it seemed too critical. I hope for better insights here.
