When do I harvest a 50/50 hybrid?

Faegrowsstarted grow question 3 years ago
My hybrid has been growing for 8 weeks now and is a 50/50 hybrid. I did feed her too less nutes for half or 2/3 of the flowering (my mistake). Does she look ready to harvest in a week or 2? I read that these are best harvest when most thricomes are milky.

Week 11
Buds. Not fattening

Hello Fae I have just cropped a 50/50 hybird called north thunder fuck from royal queen seeds and I just followed the same basics I always follow strap yourself in its going to be a long one okay there are many factors growers consider when croping a plant yes the trichomes are important though with look at them and guaguing when to harvest. Don't Trichomes mature at different rates in different parts of the plant all you are looking at when you look at the trikes is the maturity of the trikes not the bud itself YES its is a very good sign they are ready for harvest but there are many other boxes we need to tick too. First of all let your nose come into play does she smell like a potent bud that you would smoke if the answer is no shes not ready. are there a large concentration of trikes in the buds how tall are they how big are the heads can they be left longer to grow larger or are they already so large they are snapping off (which is bad) also another huge thing to consider when harvesting is Pistil coulour generally buds that are mature the pistils will turn brown full and start to withdraw into the bud that is a very good sign a plant is ready for harvest. another point you haveto consider is new growth. Buds can devolope new growth when this happens then you have two options you can let it mature the same as your buds (which i advise) or you can crop her and just stick with the old growth that should be nice and dense if you keep her going longer you are 100% going to increase the potency and yield of your crop. The most powerful tool we have as growers is patience if you have that you will have much dense fatter smellier and stronger cannabis. though ultimatly this is your plant its your rules you do what you want my friend :)

Hola! Bajo mi poca experiencia Los tricomas tienen 3 tipos de colores: transparentes, blancos y ámbar. Si están de color transparentes esto nos indica que la planta aún no ha madurado, si la cortamos en esta etapa tendremos una planta sin efectos ya que los canabinoides no se han desarrollado. Los de color blanco o lechosos indica que la resina empieza a madurar. Los efectos de una planta con la mayoría de tricomas lechosos tendrá un efecto más “High”, eufórico y energizante y por ultimo el color ámbar es el estado de madurez total de los tricomas. El efecto “Stone” de su resina será más bien narcótico, relajante, y puede llegar a ser somnífero. Lo mas recomendado siempre es cosechar ya cuando todos los tricomas están blancos y empiezan a aparecer algunos tricomas color ámbar esto nos dará un efecto mas equilibrado pero todo dependerá de tu gusto y lo que estés buscando con tu hierva, espero te haya servido de ayuda, suerte 💪, Buenos humos 👌🙌

It doesnt look far away - do you have a loupe or a stronger zoom that you can get a closer look at the trichs with? It has been flowering a long time so shouldnt be far away for sure, just a shame about the nutrient whoopsie!

I want to add I started giving her full nutes since last week to see if she'll fatten a bit more but I don't wanna keep her going on for too long obviously either. I'm growing in Coco.
