Harvesting

[regal]

Hey
I was just wondering about some plants that I have going. I wish that I could take a decent picture but can't seem to upload them on the computer. My plants are about 45 cm in height. They have tons of white pistils everywhere. I don't have one of those magnifiers to check the tricromes (I think that's what they're called) I've noticed recently that some of the pistils at the top are turning brown. Is there another method besides the tricromes to know when the plnt is done. I think it's been about 40 days...so I'm pretty sure it won't be for a while...Also, I've noticed some of the bigger leaves block the light to the pistils on other branches....can I cut the leaves off? I know pictures would be ideal but any help would be appreciated...this is my first grow...

Not everyone likes the buzz that you get from the plant that has 50% amber trichs. Don't assume that you know what everyone wants.

I hate faggots like this, Don't call someone out if your not going to put in your two cents.. It makes no sense, and is just plain fucking idiotic.

If you want a high that is more "upidity", you would want to harvest when the Trichs have turned 10-30% amber.
If you want a high that is more "body" stoned feeling, you want to wait longer- 50%+
The "Prime Time" to harvest seems to be 50/50
My personal preference is 35/65 cloudy amber
Hope this helps

Duece.

What if you wait?? what if you wait untill all trichs are amber?? what if you wait a week or two after that will the plant just die? has anyone done this?

 

[uberpea]

you will lose potency beyond that point.. and i have heard of people "re-vegging" their plants, they dont die
