How long to hold before harvesting?
Organomananswered grow question 5y ago
Correct, wait until 90-95% brown pistils/hairs.
Having the light above the plants would speed things up, although that may be impossible.
Hope this helps, Organoman.

Don't worry they will soon bulk up. When you have 80 to 90% brown hairs it's time for the flush. Would say your a bit off that.

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.2y ago

Immature nugs?Yo fastbuds, or other growers who've used fastbuds in the past. Why do my back two plants' nugs look not ready compared to the front two? They're at full term but not sure whether I should just keep feeding them or just flush with what I got. (L is imma, R is mature)Week 12

Any advice on what’s the best growing technique to optimize bud production?
I’ve seen so many techniques but they seem to be mostly for indoor, or to have a bushy plant that doesn’t grow in height. But I don’t mind the height, so which technique you guys think is best? ThanksWeek 5

Autoflower Yield "Tell-All" at Day 50?Despite fimming, topping, & numerous HEAVY defoliations (only few days between lashings) into week 6, she's still vivacious. Week 6, I sat her back in the chair. Will she bulk up soon, or is there a Auto "tell-all" on day 50 with final yield? 10-14 week strain. Stretch over.Week 8
