Harvesting time and Jewellers loupe

ASQ_jstarted grow question 5y ago

Hi guys. I would like to know if there any visual tips for examining when its time to harvest? I know that you need to look for the cloudy pistols in order to determine that it is ready. However even with a jewellers loupe I struggle to tell the stage of the trichomes.

I'm a new grower but I've heard to check the trichomes on the bud first not the sugar leafs as they mature first, should be about 90% amber and 10% milky start flushing for 7-10 days for a good high and flush when 100% amber for a more couch feeling 🤔 hope this helps bro 🙏👍✌️ I'm in week 8 flower tomorrow 🌻🙏👌👍 take care bro 👍

I came home to NL2 looking a little sad. The bottom fan leaves seem unaffected. However, the upper parts of the plants make it seem underwatered. NL1 is doing just fine. This is a first for me. Any thoughts on what can be the cause?

Smokeable?Will I be able to smoke this? The buds and overall plant seem like something different. It has plenty of trichomes but looking closely it’s mostly small sugar leaves and small balls of buds. Perhaps it will be smokeable but super harsh?

why does my sour diesel plant look so sad and weathered while the chem dawg looks healthy? I thought it could be either wind burn, under or over watering or too much nutrients, So I moved the fan, waited until top of soil was dry and added no extra nutes when watering again. HELP

Have you ever seen a correlation between smell and taste ?If it has good smell, do you expect a good taste, or do you just expect to what the seedbank says about the taste of the genetic? What about F1 which has a lot of different phenotype? If once plant has a distinctive smell compared to the other, will she also have a better taste?
