When to harvest?
RafaelRapidosanswered grow question 5y ago
Only way to find out for sure is to get a pocket microscope and check how the trichomes are looking. If they are clear, your bud contains mostly non-psychoactive cannabis precursors. If they are all milky, you will already get pretty stoned. Recommended harvest time is when 10-30% of the trichomes are amber.

It's basically ready. Stop giving it nutrients and in 2 weeks take it down.

Start flushing if you haven't already started and harvest in a week and a half to 2 weeks from now.

Good Plan for DryingI am at 2 days and 12 hours of drying
I would do my conditions as described in the table.
limiting for me will be the temperature below 16.5C so that from day 9 with ~16.5 RH 56 will drive to the end ?
Good plan or too complicated ?
I have time and want a good resultOther. Harvest - Drying

Freeze dry methodI think I found a nice easy way to freeze dry. I take a half gallon mason jar full of weed that's been drying for 5 days capped. Put it in the freezer for 45 minutes. Then take the out, take the cap off, and use a USB fan to pull out the moist air. What do you guys think?Other. Harvest - Drying

What’s up guys just harvested my gelato! My dry room sits at 20-25c and 40-55%. I’ve cut all big fan leaves off and hung it all up. In two days I plan to completely trim and then re hang to finish drying. Does that sound like a good idea? Any tips are appreciated. Many thanks!Week 14
