Ready to harvest?
LongBeachStoneranswered grow question 4 years ago
You’ll want to check if at least 10% of trichomes have an amber color and most are milky instead of clear to be sure.
Typically the leaves will also get brown tips

Are these to early to pick?So number one is 100% ready to go, obviously for ease, I'd like to do the whole crop at once. So I just want to know if you guys think these pods are far enough along to dry? I mean the buds themselves not the tricks. Last 4 pics in week I commented themWeek 11

How do I figure "wet" weight on this big girl?She's been outside, so I plan to wash the buds and then do a wet cure. (using for edibles). I'm doing a rough trim before I soak her, but still have a lot of weight in branches. Is this expected for 'wet' weight? Is the final weight after fully drying and trimming? Thanks!Week 29
