So I have 2 strains that i thought were ready for harvest gorilla glue and some type of haze, the haze was a clone and the gorilla glue a auto. I cut them both down today trimmed them and hung to dry. My room is 26 degrees and 49% humidity. But the haze is starting to smell not so good like when it was chopped kinda like grass/hay. Looking at my pictures do you think i harvested at a good time? Was grown outdoors in soil.
all opinions would be great:) thanks

from what i can see it looks pretty good would have to see a close up of trichomes too really be able to tell and i think you want a lower rh if possible i hear its good to be around like 40% im currently on my first grow so this is just from doing research not experience but hope it helps somewhat

Those definitely look too "green" to me. I'd also recommend leaving the sugar leaves on while you dry them. I've done wet trim, and dry trim, and I the dry trimmed buds have always been smoother with better flavor.

Depends on the effect you're looking for. My guess is that you don't know what you're looking for other than to get high. In that case, no you didn't harvest too early.

Hairs are brown so that's ok, and when I zoom in it looks like about 2% amber. Not a sin (they'll increase with a good cure). Personally, I like a little heavier amber, but to each his own.

Enjoy!

What do you mean by too green? I only hung the gorilla glue one up today so its pretty fresh still. Okay I have some more plants that should be done next month I will try a dry trim here.

Which strain are you referring too ? I have a hand held x100 microscope I think im just not too sure over clear and cloudy trichomes. I wanted actually to have as many cloudy as possible

Hazes take up to 12 weeks or more in flower since it’s a auto prob the same cycle as a haze but a little faster. Just harvested way to early would have gave them another month.

A month more is this not too long? All the big fan leaves had started to die and even the sugar leaves were going yellow and i was noticing not much change in bud development (on the haze clone, the thinner one) the gorilla was an auto and I had been growing for around 10 - 11 weeks. We have 2 weeks of rain, cold and storm forecast so I decided to give it the chop

just puttin this out here how long was it really budding for because there is no way its been budding for 10-11 weeks. @bananahaze64 even with autos I still count flower time when they start budding nicely. from that point it can be anywhere from 9-14 weeks imo with weed atleast depends for all the sativas like the haze would like the 14+ weeks. for example my GDP is done in 9 weeks of flower so in total 12/12 time that would be around 11 weeks total from 12/12 but in this example GDP is a heavy indica. any questions shoots em.

@Gond00s Thanks for your reply, I planted the gorilla auto indoors around march the 30th then I moved it in and outside until the temp was okay at night, wow so that really is like 9 -10 weeks total grow time.

with the haze clone it was started in a tent by a friend then the change in light when it went outside caused it to flower and It kind of came to a halt with any growth these last week, I didnt want it to reveg so I harvested it

well just remember for next time longer is always better and once the plant has started to do its thing don't interrupt it any stress can fuck up a flowering plant. always next time

Then let it go long. Keep an eye on your plants and you'll see the trichome progression from clear, to cloudy, to amber. That's with any strain.
