Harvest time?

ArthurMorgan
ArthurMorganstarted grow question 5 years ago
Hello everyone I’ve got some nice unknown (Indian i think) sativa. It’s my first time so far. Tried a couple of stress training but I think I shouldn’t have taken off that load of fan leaves. Can anyone help me out wit harvesting time?

tip: if you have a DSLR camera which you can change lenses with, you can actually turn the lens around and hold it in place with your hand to get macro shots. focusing is tricky but it works! but yea as far as it goes to harvesting, when most of the trichomes are golden/amber color. though some people decide to harvest slightly earlier because it is said you get a more clear high when smoking. But if you want your weed to be as potent as possible, when most trichomes (~80%) are golden or amber. if you got a 100% sativa strain, you can be looking at up to 18 weeks of flowering. By looking at your photos you are no where near harvest yet. i personally wouldnt follow the pistils too much. they tend to change color on different times depending on strains but it is a pretty good indicator if you really have nothing else.

I use a reading magnifier and the camera on phone at max zoom..works pretty well and cheap..an other way to tell are the pistols,when 80% of them is brown your close to the end. the breeder of soma seeds always says,when you think she’s ready,wait another week 😂 but still checking trichomes is the best way in my opinion

I don’t use any nutrient except some home made compost one with green leaves and sprouts for nitrogen and the other with brown wood, branches ect. It’s been actually approx 60 days on Flo mode. How much time should I leave it till harvest? I can’t afford macros lenses .

I did this to one of mine. Wasn't as far along tho. You need to make up for the energy loss. Bump up the nutrients a little bit to make up for the lack of leaf.
