Flower day 53 2 plants Both 8-9 weeks flower (breeder). Temperatures in the tent probably stay under 28,5 C untill day 60. Than it’s supposed to get really hot (30c). Harvest before the heat or not? Is the heat or an “early” harvest more damaging for the terps and Quality?

Early harvest is more limiting to quality than heat.

I would stay cool and wait till the plant is finish how you like it. I think you got a good ventilation in your tent? On the way to the end you can turn down your led about 20% that will help you keep the temps lower and Save the terps 👍

Ai Gude Growmie, Hot Sommer Indoor Bis 30C° bei ausreichender Umluft und Abluft sind hohe Temperaturen kein Problem solange ausreichend Wasser vorhanden ist. Du kannst auch die Leistung der Lampe drosseln um so Kühler zu machen ! Weil lieber 7 -10 Tage länger stehen lassen grade am ende muss auch nicht mehr mit max PPFD beleuchtet werden. Oder hast du Probleme mit zu hoher Luftfeuchtigkeit? Weil um am ende zu Reifen geht bei guter Belüftung auch mit 50-55% RLF solange sie täglich kontrolliert wird weil mit 40-45% RLF in der Blüte am Ende ist man safe was Schimmelbildung angeht aber anschließend die Blüten bei 18C° und 60% RLF Blüten zu Trocken funktioniert einwandfrei und wenn man Ende mal 1-2 Tage höhere RLF bekommt passiert nichts solange die Pflanze kerngesund bis Gesund ist. Greetings BlaKX

Heat isn’t really a problem until they have plenty enough water. Think about plants growing in the Moroccan desert .

Just play it by trichomes, light and heat can accelerate the ambering of trichomes, sometimes this means buds higher can often be ready a little sooner than lower, but it's not a fixed given. Depends on couple things. Just gpcis on your trichs and when they look ready, your main thing will be making sure there is no moisture in the critical final stage, if temps go above 77F the proliferation of bacteria is x10, very important you don't mix high temps with high moisture when buds are formed. Heat is a issue ofc but make especially sure its not too wet and hot.
