It's going to depend a lot on your preferences... if you harvest early (when the trichs are all milky), you'll get the energizing/head effects from your grow... if you wait until 10-20% have turned from milky to amber, you'll have a nice, balanced high - the cerebral effects WITH a relaxation... And if you wait until they're mostly amber, well, make sure your couch is comfortable! :-D
Your choice... there IS no "better" .. it's all in what you want to achieve.
Good luck!

Harvest ETA?80 days - Calyx' are plump and stigmas are 50% brown. Trichomes on observed calyx' look almost perfect, with 1 or 2 amber trichomes. 1 Cola is very underdeveloped in comparison. How long will this cola take to catch up to other colas? Should I chop despite underdeveloped cola?

First harvest, dryingHello members! Is very low humidity a problem when drying flowers? Let's say under 45%? I read that 50-60% is ideal. And when matured in the bottle, about 50%. Is it a problem if I don't use humidifying or absorbent bags in the bottle? ThanxBuds. Other

When to harvest?Hello! I'm new at harvesting plants. These plants have been in flowering phase for ~9 weeks now, the data suggests it's ready in 8-10 weeks. Do you think it wil be one more week or longer?
Conditions have not been best for these plants so they might be slow compared to others.

Harvest or not ? Trichomes are nearly all brown for the top buts close to the light.
( the ones as single buts on the pic )
And the lower ones are small and need more time I think. Can I harvest the buts closer to the light? And let the others ones grow

Winter Drying TempCurious on drying temps. I'm fairly confident I can keep humidity where I need it but living in Minnesota and coming into winter, it's about 68° inside. Pulling in outside air would be far too cold. Is 68° too high for drying?Week 5

Wait one more week before harvest or no?GG seems to be getting some nice colors. I keep getting paranoid about when to harvest. I want to harvest it now, trics look almost perfect but plant keeps throwing new white pistils. Keep asking the same questions, I'm sorry for that I'm insecure since it's my first harvestWeek 11

Drying conundrumHi gang. Think my 1st girl is a week or 2 out (thoughts?) but No2 is a couple behind (later sow). When I cut how’s best to dry when only have 1 space which will need lights on for the 1 lagging? Cardboard box? If so what about humidity, would a boveda or 2 help? Thx and love.

Can I dry hanging in a cardboard box, in the same tent as another plant still maturing ?I have one plant ready to harvest, the other which I suspect is a totally different variety is still at least a week 10 days away.I only have one tent & have to fly, under the radar. Would it work if I customise a cardboard box to hang the Purple lemonade in, with some air holes

Will high humidity cause plants to stop drying? I can't get it below 65% consistently.I have been drying this one Zkittlez for 17 days and it seems like it stopped drying. Nothing has changed in days. The bend feels the same. The buds are still really loose and airy. They also don't snap off at all. Any ideas? Or is it obvious? Thanks!Week 14
