Harvest time? trichome pictures
blasterw32started grow question 5 years ago
End of 7th week, I'm wondering whether it's time to harvest.There's about 20% amber trichomes in the very top, but in the second layer of buds the trichomes are still 50/50 transparent/amber. Should I harvest the most top buds already or wait one more week? (please see album pics

Depending on the ratio you are targetting , if you want to harvest with a bit of amber trichomes but not too much then harvest the top buds 1st because even after harvest the trichomes will continue to mature a bit so your final ratio will be around 30% amber.
50% clear 50% cloudy is what most of the growers are searching for so if you harvest now the cloudy ratio will be higher on the final product.
I personnaly prefer a 50%cloudy , 50% amber to sleep good

20% amber is perfect for a comfy indica high.
You can easily harvest the top parts and let the rest ripe up for another week or two, if you want the entire plant to come out at 20% amber :) I would do just that.
Nice grow!

I got to harvest in 14 days: in order to have enough time to cure it before leaving home for 2 weeks (safety first: is a period of floods in here, I just can't take the risk). I had a pretty long vegetative stage but I'm gonna finish it at 13 weeks. Am I gonna ruin it it, right?8 months ago

When I have to harvest the latest?In one week, I have to go on a trip for 5 days.
Should I chop plant now or just before the trip?
If I chop it down now, can I keep it in the air drying room for two weeks?
I read that when curing in jars, it needs to be burbed every day and I cant do that while I am away.Week 17
