Amber Trichomes? Best Harvest Time?
rividiumstarted grow question 4y ago
Don't seem to be seeing amber trichomes yet, best practice to just stay the course until I can see some and then harvest? Majority of the pistils are orange and trichomes all seem to be pretty cloudy. Just looking to the community for some advice, don't want to harvest too early!

Not all strains produce amber trichomes. If your 100% cloudy and all the pistils have browned then it's ready. If not continue until they are. I harvested an auto northern lights about a week ago and that went 94 days before I chopped but would have benefitted another week really.

I would flush for one more week and then harvest. Cheers!

Hey Rividium,
You have been flowering your Autoflowers for like 8 weeks now and most of the times it is enough time to harvest.
Your hairs on your buds are brown but how about your Trichomes(THC)?
I do not complete understand what you mean with cloudy but if they went from crystal looking to like milky color for like 80%, they are ready :)
if not just give it a week or less. If you own a microscope(they are cheap) you can check on it better.
Goodluck harvesting :)

Autoflower: Harvesting in SectionsHello growers! Some of the lower branches on my ladies are starting to grow into the light and are developing, but the top is close to being ready. I know it’s possible with a regular plant, but is it possible to harvest an auto flowering plant in parts without killing it? Thanks

Edible out of fresh harvestHi, I'm not very much into smoking weed, more like eating edibles. In cause of financial and space problems, my plan is to make edibles stait out of the harvest or after the drying. My question is: Does the curing/fermentation effects the potency or effect of the weed?Buds. Other

Small bud rot - Harvest or finish off? 9 weeks into flowerI've had to cut about a 1 inch section off the top of one of my colas due to what appears to be rot. I've checked the rest of the plant and can't see anywhere else that has been effected. Should I harvest now to
be on the safe side or let it finish up?
