try taking a picture with the lights off and a flash..

i can barely see any brown... :/

check the pictures on the info c.guru was kind enough to cut and paste from this thread... >> https://www.rollitup.org/harvesting-curing/210501-zeuss-take-harvesting-6.html#post2701521 (first post in that thread)

also this helped me when i had seen it.. once you know it.. its quite clear... pictures are not always that obvious though

hi m8
i know i'm new here but i've done a couple of grows and looking at your pics i would say you have a cpl of weeks to go.
if you look at the white hairs they are starting to turn red like halfway up them. thats a good sign they are busting a gut getting ready for the chop!
now when most like 70-90% of those hairs turn fully red the ones that started turning red 1st shld be orange/brown they look like they are dead!.
So when 70-90% turn red/orange it should be ready to cut/dry/cure. :)
this is just my opinion other users may think different so it's up to you when you harvest and i use this as a guide myself and seems to be good for me .
hope this helps
danschwo :)
p.s pics are sweeeet!!!! +REP

the breeders are really nice liars...wait - i mean...errr....
noone holds them to that shit
ever read a description that says...tastes like ASS but it'll stone ya... or... barely gets you high at all, but you'll triple your yield... or...fuck if i know - i got so drunk last night i can't figure for the life of me why there's a 14 year old huingarian boy in my...

look - the breeder - no w8... the seller is gonna tell you every indica is 8 weeks and every sativa is 10 or 11
every weed is the best most flavorful stoniest blahblahblah

how else are they going to convince you their shit is worth 12 bux a seed?

when it's done, it's done.

after enough years and time spent with individual strains, you will learn when to harvest. People can give you whatever technical shit they want but unless they are testing the % of THC and weighing that against how nice the smoke is, fuck the technical shit. I harvest by feel. Most of the hairs are brown when i harvest. 50% - 65% brown hairs. You should be able to see the trics change to an amber color with the naked eye

I guess this is not done yet. More time! Like 2-4 weeks it looks. Do you think this will be ready by end of this month???
These are updated pics with the light off in the Room!

Ignore that advice. If you want a head high, you harvest at around 80% cloudy 20% amber. If you want to be stoned, harvest at around 50/50. She's getting there, hairs are starting to turn. stick with it.

Ok guys. Im going to update the thread with an updated picture of my plant within the next Hour. I'm still undecided on this. I would say all trichomes are Cloudy, as per my 100x scope. The Pistols are about 65% brown and 35% white. Come take a look!

I'd chop at 80 days, but then it depends on the strain and what kinda high your looking to get from it.
I agree and thats why I really think I'm going to start the flushing phaze starting next week so I can chop her at the end of the month!

Wait, I thought It had been flowering for 80 days. 34 days isn't long enough. autoflowers take anywhere from 7-8 weeks to finish.

No, those buds are far from done. You could cut a tree weigh it dry @ 6 weeks, then cut another tree week 7, weigh it dry, then cut another at week 8, weigh it dry. Atleast, that way it'll tell you how more buds you might get if you continued, for another week or two.
