I've spent the last few days reading through page 15 of the harvesting forum, and I'm about convinced, that you all will tell me to wait at least a week or two right? Hehe, well that's fine I'm in no hurry. Matter of fact, I have a identical plant 3 weeks behind this one that I will HAVE to chop at day 73 or 86 due to scheduling reasons, so If I can put this one to day 90 without too much degration, it'll be a nice test. Nirvana posts 8-9 weeks for this strain (so what right?) just FYI
So, let me see if I can cover all the bases. Day 71 - week 10 (on May 10), been flowering since day 35. I did minimum LST of the main stalk, see how that went, she muscled out of it eventually. All the branches were tied back just to create a somewhat even canopy. Total height is 16" from the soil line, it'd be about 18/19" if the main stalk were straight. You can see in the photos, that the main cola(s) are all in the back.

I have a 60/120x scope and the trichs are almost all cloudy. I have to really look to find clear ones, and amber ones are even harder to come by (1% maybe). Also I'm not getting ANY yellowing of any leaves... shouldn't it be dying off towards harvest time? Has anyone had plants stay 100% green all the way up to harvest?
Oh and the photos are somewhat misleading, I think having the flash on only reflected the cloudy trichs, so it looks a lot whiter/brighter than it is in person... There's about 50-60% of the white hairs have turned amber and curled in. Maybe I can get some pics later without the flash. Any thoughts?

that is now the plan 
Here's better photos without the flash. I checked the scope again today, and it's really hard to find any amber colored trichs, I find if I look deeper into the bud I might see one, but still only like 1%
the main cola(s) alone had a wet weight of 3 oz wet (after trim)... and there's still big buds on the whole bottom canopy!!! Sooo happy!!! My hubby is helping me trim, it's so much! He's going to make butter with the scraps, she's soooo frosty!
