HI All, Just wonder if I am close to harvest, all the pistels or orange now, but I don't see any orange trichomes - I still think they are a bit glassy, but some are getting milkly - Do you think I should wait a few more weeks?

Hi! Purple Bud Auto are sold to be ready in 10~14 weeks and most diaries here are done in 14 weeks. Also, the trichomes on your photos are still very clear and you definitively need to wait another month before harvesting. 😉

You can choose to harvest when they have the exact effects you're looking for... I feel a general guideline is - Harvest earlier for more buzzy daytime high. Harvest later for a more relaxing, couch lock experience. Obviously it depends on the strain genetics as well. In my past experience when I harvest sativa dominant I usually let her go for longer & let more trichomes amber before harvest BUT that is because some sativas can be too energizing for me and cause anxiousness. For fairly even hybrids or indica dominant I harvest with milky trichomes & a few amber colored ones. This is just what I prefer but it varies according to what you want and the strain in my opinion.
