Wait till the hairs curl in against the bud structure and most are colored. Look for around 20% amber trichomes on the buds not sugar leafs for my favorite harvest point. 🤘😤

Which Sativa next?
Now that I've fallen in love with Jack Herer and realised it's probably the first sativa I've ever smoked (I was raised on moroccan hash and stuck to it ever since), which one shall I grow next? Jack Herer seems to inject me with a dose of happiness.
