Are they done yet? Pics.

[wowzerz]

Do these look done yet? I have a scope... Mabye its my eye sight but I have a hard time distinguishing between cloudy/ clear/ amber. Most all the hairs are red(see second pic), but some are still white as in the first pic. it has been 7 weeks since the lights were cut back to 12/12. Strain is indica dominant "Babba Kush" Thanks for looking

I'd let it go for a few more weeks. That's just me.

ide prob wait another week and half to 2 weeks but you will know when they are done when 50% of the pistels are amber/orange

I am more then happy to wait another week or two, but more then half of the hairs are already red.

you dont want to go by the color of the hairs,you go by the color of the trichs.i wait till there 50/50 cloudy/amber.id say another 1-2 weeks.lookin good and keep it up.

yes you go with the colour of hair.

one of my plants, 3 days before chop-chop.


Another very important (imho) reason to let your plants mature is Terpenoid production. Terpenes are responsible for alot of the complex (And enjoyable) flavours that cannabis produces. Some of the most intense flavours are produced on the "downslope" of cannabis's life cycle. My personal experience with this first came when i was growing GH cheese. One of the plants i harvested at 8 weeks and it tasted pretty nice and had pretty dense buds. The other i grew until about 9 1/2 weeks and it had most amazing, sour, skunky, delicious taste with rock hard buds.


Here is my interpretation (and maybe exaggeration) of a scenario i see all too often...

Look at my trichs, they look nice and milky with a touch of amber just like the ones in the picture that says its harvest time now!!!


So i just have one question....

Does this look ready to you?

nice plants but you got about 2-3 weeks left on them buddys bro good job

I'd say 2-3 more weeks for big dense stinky buds. The leaves are still green which means the buds haven't started taking nutrients from them yet. Keep flushing.
