When do I harvest my plant !! Please help

[Katnipgrows]

My plant is very small as my set up isn’t great. It as my first grow. It’s a auto flower - crystal meth and I can see it’s have a lot of crystals. But I’m not sure when you harvest it or if I should remove the two bigger fan leaves.

You got few more weeks autos fan leaves always turn yellow get necrotic when there ready to go

Shit, it looks like you already did.

Got some pistils browning, lots and lots of milky trichomes...almost there.

 

[Katnipgrows]

Só I should wait for the leave to turn yellow and to keep an eye on the trichomes.

I was thinking of harvesting the top buds and leavening the bottom ones as they are tiny and new pistols keep growing and it’s all creamy while whole the top it’s browning and a lot bigger

I do just that very thing, similar to veggies like tomatoes...just take the ones that are ready. leave the others on the plant to continue

You can I have grown autos a few times and everything I read and did was basically that I watched the buds real good towards the end but waited till the plant was basically saying hey I’m done I’ve got no more to give pull it

 

[Hiphophippo]

I agree with mud balls pull the top buds and let it go a while longer

Never harvest early. I've yet to hear anyone say "You harvested too late."

 

[Katnipgrows]

Thank you sooooo much !!!

Not yet and don't cut any of the leaves.

 

[Katnipgrows]

How do you know it’s the very very end !! I would like to wait till it’s at its peak but cuz it’s my first grow I’m not sure when that it aha

You’ll notice the sugar leaves are slowly being consumed by the bud and the bud basically looks like what you buy in the bag I dont judge by the trichomes they just make me second guess myself the whole time I’m looking at them I also go by how the bud feels to me it gets that real dense feeling idk man it’s hard to explain

Usually the plant is ready when all the hairs on the buds are orange and the leaves start to change like fall or turn completely yellow.

Leaves shouldn't turn completely yellow. Plant should be healthy until the day of harvest.
