Pay no attention to the leafs. They will tell you nothing about the ripeness of your plant.

1-3 weeks longer being the most over used advice on this board. Nice pictures,
but really give no info on trichomes, other than they look stalked.
You're the only one that can really get a feel for the trichomes.
It's up to you what type of high you want.
The more amber the more narcotic,
More milky/cloudy, more up/head high.

Judging from your pictures, whenever you decide to cut, your past the point of
having to worry about if it's a good high. Looks to me like it's a personal preferance on the type of high now.
yep u def should never listen to your plant it will tell u nothing:roll:

I cannot believe it took until the 20th post before someone mentioned trichomes!

The question is; now is the very best time to harvest my marijuana. The answer Alex; when the trichome color is what will give me the head high, the body stone or the combination of each I most want. Correct for $1,000.00.

You do realize trichomes ARE part of the PLANT right?
Where do i say don't listen to your plants?
What i said is, leafs yellowing have nothing to do with if your plant is ripe or not.
Check the % of yellow leaves, when you've got 75% yellowing, your plants
are ready for harvest. I think NOT.

actually toward the end of flowering(hence ready) the plant will begin sucking the reserved nitrogen from its leaves. hence the yellowing of your plant.. yes tri chromes r a good way to tell but that requires a scope of some kind.. i assumed this guy did not have one so i gave him a poor mans way of guesstimating..thanks for playin though

Thats plenty to see trichomes.
I use a 5-15 loop. Unless i'm looking for zombie bud, then i just wait for an amber tint to the whole plant.

Sigh...
Ok do my homework? If you looked at the pics you'd know they were magnified. So do YOUR homework.
You give bad information, i call you out on it, you get pissy.
Then, to top it off you offer the exact information i gave the OP in the first place.
Don't try to act like some billy badass
cause you got a few grows under your belt.
I'm done with this thread.
If you can't let this go, You can search my posts and we can argue there.
I've said all i'm saying here.
