Are these ready for harvest?

[Enak11]

I am on day 58 of flowering (4 we veg) and could use some help figuring out if I'm ready to harvest. The trichomes look cloudy to me but I don't see any amber. Most of the hairs have turned orange and brown but there are a few white ones here and there. I tried to take a pic through my loupe but it might be a little blurry. This is g13 pineapple express. Store I bought seeds from say 9-10 weeks for flowering. Let me know if I can provide additional info that would help.

I think the plants experienced a little light burn from having the lights too close and at about 70% power. I knocked it down to 50% and raised it a bit and that seems to have helped. These were grown using CREE cxb3590s and this is my first grow.

Thank you very much in advance for any help or advice you can share.

those cobs will generally make harvest earlier. now on the trics if your not seeing any more clear then you can harvest some do and some wait till they see a few amber trics I would wait till I see a few amber but remember when you see amber those trics are starting to degrade all depends on the high you want to get, but you did a great job what I see

Trics are too clear and calyx not swollen enough for my personal choice.

I don't know guys looks overdone see those yellow leaves and red hairs you think still it can get bigger ?

I have to agree! Those flowers look amazing you have done a really good job for a first grow...Don't ruin your good work getting impatient!

When did you start your flowering day count? At the flip or at the first appearance of flowers(pistils)

I see 75% clear 25% cloudy and not even a single amber, not even on the sugar leaves! The pistils are turning orange/red and withdrawing into the Calyce's, the Calyce's are starting to swell and fill out!

Give it time, I am not going to guess how much time, that is up to you and your daily checking of the trichomes. Patience will pay off, wait for 75% cloudy 20% clear and 5% amber and that is even based upon personal preferences! You have some time left!

Good job!

Cheers

Looks like another week to a week and a half.
Looking like you have already been flushing.
Get a dehumidifier in there and drop RH to 30-35. That usually makes them throw out more trichomes and drink more water causing more swell.

Flowering count started when I changed the light schedule. Thanks for the advice and kind words!

I stopped giving nutes too early and now it's too late to start again lol, I thought they would be done by now. I have a dehumidifier set at 40 right now, I was hoping maybe next weekend they would be ready...

Do you think i need to flush them or should it be fine without since I stopped giving nutes 3.5 weeks ago? That was intentional thinking I'd harvest this weekend.

In my experience cannabis stretches and transitions for about 7-9 days after flip then flowers start to develop. I start my flowering day count at the first appearance of pistils.

So with that, if you like,. you can estimate and adjust your flowering days!

Hope this helps

Very useful info, thank you!

Just curious, how many plants do you have under the SCROG?

Cheers

Leafs are only yellow cuz they're hungry lol u should use a few factors for when to harvest as trics alone can be strain dependent. I go by bud density hairs receding and trics all these factored in I'd do another week n give her some food she needs food to produce her fruits bruv

Cobs = Earlier harvests, what a crook of crap!

5 plants in a 4x4 tent under 12 cobs.

Should I give nutes and then flush later this week? What do you all think?

 

[Budzbuddha]

Very close ... I would say a week . Final fade has set in and you are pretty much there.

Nice grow.

The grow looks great. Nice flowers!

I wouldnt give nutes at this point in the grow.

I feed with Bloom booster and bud blaster all the way to the emd...but seeing as you have already stopped nutes and you are very close to harvest just keep em watered. There are 2 schools.of thought on flushing...I subscribe to the flushing isn't necessary school...

I flush...after the chop. I stick their butts in reverse osmoses water for about 24 hours. I make an effort to elevate the butt of the plant from the bottom of the container holding the RO water. It seems the output of the plant is a bit heavier than the water and sinks to the bottom. I find that the average snip will consume about 1/2 liter of RO water in the 24 hour flush time. I run the fertilizer from start to chop.
