Is it the right time to harvest?

When will it be the right time to harvest it? It's almost the end of the flowering week 9. I can already see some yellowish trichomes. Another question: is it better to trim it before drying or after?

Make sure you don't let the soil dry up. Any minor NPK needed will be taken from the leaves.

Hmmmm. You're in ripening so as I said I in my other reply to your leaf issue. Lower your light strength and you can even higher it and it'll help ripen a larger surface area. 30cm away is for heavy floweinh you should be using 80% and dropping it so as this stage I'd say drop it to 60% and higher it a bit.

High ultra_violet, No it is not ready yet you should wait another week if you want to harvest the plant at her most potent. The orange trichomes you see are not on the buds but on the leaves. They are orange waaay before the buds. I personally like to trim from the moment I chop the plant. The cutting is just easier then when you let it dry first and you prevent mold a lot better when you cut before drying because the moist can escape a lot better. Happy Harvest Buddy! 💚

Happy harvesting then ! I would personally give one more week ;) Most of the time i was doing wet trim. Some say dry trim is the best. All depends on , do you have good stable conditions for long dry or maybe you use one grow space and in the hurry to start new project ... All is possible in certain situations.
