Hi,

Northern lights auto, end of 15 week, 105 days since seed.

2 Plants, must take them both all, can't separate (drying is in the tent).

Can I wait until Friday or am I getting late and chop them tomorrow?

Thanks

Always going to be more amber in the top part of the plant, and there is still white pistils which mean the lower growth is still maturing. I say another 3-4 weeks if you pulling all at once. Good luck and looks tasty.

Based on the number of white pistils I'm guessing there are zero amber trichomes. I wouldn't even bother checking trichomes until all the pistils are orange/brown.

Don't get hung up on looking for amber trichomes, it's obviously already got you wanting to chop early.

The quickest auto I've had finish was in 90 days. The rest went 110 days and longer. I'm so confused why people think autos finish fast or something, most likely to bad info on the web.

Yep, I guess bad info.. also the seed seller (Nirvana) info is 10-12 weeks on the site...

But there is amber in the photos, so ignore it?
On some of the buds there is a lot actually...

Thanks!

Yeah guess you didn't get the memo. Breeders lie on finish times.

Yes ignore it. Could be amber from physical damage. Everything around them are clear.

I have a feeling despite all the good advice you've been given you're going to chop them anyways. Well good luck.

Not completely.

what they tend to not tell everyone is that they always quote their largest yielding phenotype when quoting yield ability.

they quote their fastest finishing phenotype when quoting flowering time.

these 2 phenotypes may not be the same one from the phenotype variations they have found (which could be ALOT of different phenotypes depending upon stability)

l try to add 3 weeks at least to stated flowering times. Even that is early imo. But better than any 65 day flowering except dinafem critical plus, 65 is just about right! Only strain that l know of like that, there are more. Just havent grown them yet.

I’m a 70-75 day critical+ man if I can get there (sometimes suffer botrytis due to cola sizes)

No no, I asked cause I been told 2 weeks ago that I have 2 weeks.
I have no experience with autos.

Most of the places I read say to harvest when 80% brown pistils and 20% amber so I was following it.

I will wait as you guys suggested.

My only concern now is that I started giving them Advance Nutrition Finish in the last week...
This is final flash product, so what should I do now?

Return to feed?
Water only?
