Harvesting help - how much amber before darkness? Is she almost ready?
greengreeensstarted grow question 3 years ago
How many amber trichomes do you aim for before 48hrs of darkness? 10%? This is my first grow and it’s almost the 10th week of flower (8-10wk estimate from breeder) and my sugar leaves are yellowing. Been flushing for almost 2 weeks. Is she close? Help is so appreciated!!

If you want your flowers to deliver an invigorating, slightly euphoric high, then you should harvest when 15–20% of the trichomes have turned to an amber color - this applies also to indicas - but if you're after a relaxing, narcotic effect that promotes sleep and helps you unwind, then wait until you have 80–100% amber trichomes before giving her 48 hours of darkness. Looking at the trichomes and those sugar leaves and add-in you've been flushing her for 2 weeks, I'd say it's time to chop her down my friend. Congrats on your first harvest in advance.

Probably still have some time left. If you've been flushing for almost 2 weeks, you really don't have a choice but to harvest within 4-5 days. 10% amber is for highest THC content, while 30%+ is for couchlock, munchie effects.

La respuesta depende de lo que tu quieras. Si te gusta un efecto más psicoactivo cuando fumas estás en el momento exacto. Pero si buscas un efecto más relajante, deberías esperar hasta que un porcentaje mayor de los tricomas estén ámbar.
Si esa fuera mi planta yo cosecharía ahora mismo.

Io le direi giusto altri 4/5 giorni in modo da farla maturare quel tanto che basta poi inizierei a tagliare. Magari puoi tagliare anche solo le cime superiore e quelle in basso le lasci per ulteriori 2/3 giorni ;) molto bella complimenti!:)

Harvest timingI'm at the end of flowering,
2 are soon ready and the last one needs more time.
I'm living in a studio, and i wanted to dry them in my growingbox
but i have to wait until the 3rd one is ready.
Should i wait or cut 2 of them and hang it in my bathroom to finish the last one ?

HAY SMELLBuds smelling a bit like hay/wet grass! what's weird is that the fat main tops are "crispy" and smell sweet and fruity but the smaller buds are still wet and smell like hay. On day 13 of drying 60%rh 72°F. The bigger stems are starting to snap but the smaller ones only bend??

Hi guys.
Planning for my drying
I’m thinking of uesing my loft space, it’s dark, temp sits between 14c and 20c and humidity between 45 and 50
I can add a fan to keep the air moving
What do u think is this ok or is it too dry and not warm enough?
Thanks 🤙

Drying Techniques, Which One?...I have a question on drying, what are your opinions?
1)drying the whole plant fan leaves & all
2) drying the whole plant with only fan leaves removed
3) wet trim, cutting each branch off separately & then hang drying
I'm looking for best quality flower not the fastest.

Harvest/flush time?My Special Kush#1 is today on day 32 of flowering. Today i checked the trichomes and apparently they are mostly white/milky colour. I read that this strain has a 7-8 weeks flowering time, so i was surprised to see them milky. I dont know if start to flush or wait another week.
