When to chop

HanAlonestarted grow question 4 years ago

Hi growers! 😃 In your opinion, based on the last photos, how soon should I chop? (most of the leaves are still green and some white pistils continue to emerge from the buds)

About a week or two for some. Try harvesting when the plants' pistils are about 95% brown. This will give you flowers with peak THC and fully developed terpenes. Hope this helps, Organoman.

I would say a few weeks left. Remember you also want to flush the nutrients out for 10 days to 2 weeks. So prob about a week left before 2 weeks flush.

Pistils turn amber in early flowering stage The pistils of buds keep turning amber and that at day 47. Do I have to worry? What can I do to support her? The last weeks it was a bit hot inside the tent, is this maybe a reason?

Heatlight stress?Can someone tell, are these brownish tips the sign of the heat stress or something else? And how bad is that for the plant's not so distant future? She grows indoors. Peak DLI was almost 60 but very briefly about one night. Now it's dimmed to 40dli/~600ppfd/ 20/4 schedule.
