Another “is it ready” post

Those charts that say to harvest after 80% of the pistils turn color are crap. And seed companies tell you that stuff so you harvest plants within the time they say it takes to flower which is alway too early. And that video tells you to flush, yellow leaves are a good thing, and shows plants with a bunch of dead leaves at harvest. 02:37 I could care less if it's from Royal Queen seeds that video is garbage.

The OP's plant isn't ready.

People are harvesting their weed early and starving them at the end due to all those charts and videos telling you to flush and charts that tell you to harvest early. That harvest early for a head high or harvest later for a body high is nonsense. Harvest your plant when it's done. Too many posts from people asking why their weed isn't dense or smells like hay because they harvested early for some head high. If people want a head high then grow a strain that has those characteristics and harvest it when it's done. If you want a body high grow a plant with those characteristics and harvest when it's done.

Some of this stuff floating around is just ridiculous.

Original glue auto. Close?
I like looking for amber trichomes, and have found a few white hairs tend to keep growing even at harvest. More amber trichomes, more couchlock.

Beginning at 2:11 in the vimeo it recommends flushing, which has been found to not be preferred by consumers.

I let all of my plants go for 3+ months during my last grow. You could see the amber glowing on the buds just by looking with the naked eye. Still, I only get couchlock when I smoke a ton or I'm already tired.

I'm sure couchlock is strain dependent as well.
Maybe. Sometimes I play a UFC game online, and between every round / fight I'll take a couple hits / dabs. While I'm playing my heart is racing and I'm amped all of the way up. Then I quit playing and realize I'm ultra high. Then I'm just chill. I usually only grow indica leaners too. I think it's your mind state, Possibly genetics or something, I don't know. I'm never very sloth-like, and cannabis usually acts like head fuel regardless of the strain.

It might be just my strains but I never get couchlock from dabs
The opposite even

Haha this is me on warzone...Break out the indica, puff before drop in on the plane, puff on parachute drop, puff mud game waiting for rotation, puff at end of game - repeat for a few hours. When gaming is done I am baked as shit and ready to cook dinner and unwind with the old lady...couchlock comes later before bed.
