When is this plant ready to harvest?
PAIN_1Gstarted grow question 3 months ago
This is my first harvest and I have no clue if or when this plant is ready to harvest. I know to look for trichomes but I simply don't see the difference between them. Was hoping to harvest next week.

You probably got another 3 weeks to go, roughly.
When there are 95-98% brown pistils.hairs, you will be entering the harvest zone.
After getting to that stage, looking at the trichomes and estimating when there are 10-30% amber trichomes will give you your final harvest timing.
Trichomes start clear, turn milky/opaque and finally, a honey amber colour.

nope you have got to this point don't ruin it :) 3 weeks minimum ignore all the trike talk on your first and just concentrate on other signs you will get a much better yield the longer you let her flower and the longer she flowers the more trichomes will mature and develop. my opinion anyway I look for loads of signs before cropping and most of the pistils have to be brown and the strain hasto smell like its ready in my opinion. but hey your plant your rules do what you want :)

it all depends on what effect you are hoping for from your weed.
Milky trichomes = energetic high,
amber-coloured trichomes = physical high.
a bit of both = head and body high.
just check your trichomes for this
what i can see at your pictures, she could be ready to harvest. looks like a good mix of milky and amber coloured trichomes.

Going on Vacation for 7 days, in just 10 days but three girls are in WEEK 9 of flower and still need another week. I've got options:a. Chop & hang the day I leave, ac dry in a tent for 7 days
b. A friend can water mid-week once
c. Water the day I leave but lights OFF for those 7 days
I prefer "c." for $ + safety (np running an ac for a dry tent but I'd like to cut the lights)
Any risks to this idea?
THANKS!Week 9

Lower buds crumbled at harvestHi growmates, I tried flushing the last week, and the plant seemed to die, with buds beginning to dry. When I harvested, the lower buds just crumbled. The colas though were still tight. Do you think I should have kept giving nutrients to the end? Has anyone experienced this?

Drying seems too fast after chop (Growing and Drying in a Shed). 5 days too quick and how to slow it down?Thanks! My last 2 grows seem to dry too quickly.
I dry in a shed but rh and temps are decent- 70-75F & 50-60rh. Even tried letting 1 plant go 6 days instead of 5 before trimming and the jar never climbed over 54% after. Is this normal- should I & how could I slow the dry down?Week 4

Is there any effect of letting an auto strain in the dark before harvest, what 48h or so?Also wonder if I have to get the lights on after that, for a couple of hours, or so, and then cut them. I have read it's at this time plants produces more terpenes, is that right?

Ready to chop? Ambering trichs on a couple of colas but not on others...Does the Council of Wise Growers feel ready to call "chop" on my 86 day from germination Purple Chill Auto? Some colas have nice ambering (see close up of trichs) and others not. Sugar leaves haven't started dying. Last time I ran this pheno went 91 days (see diary).

Is My Drying Humidity Too Low?Humidity is hanging right around 60% but sometimes dips to 58%. Temp is around 66°-68°. Those numbers are coming from my AC Infinity controller, while a cheap little temp and humidity gauge I placed in the plant says humidity is 71%.
Is my humidity too low? Get a humidifier?
