Scoping the bitches right now, posting this from in my growroom.
Everything looks either Cloudy or slightly on the verge of going amber. There is still a few clear trichs but from what i can tell they are still small and must be pretty new on the scene. Not waiting for them. Going to be harvesting Saturday, day 60. If i wait until the pistils are receded and brown she will be way over-cooked imo.
People love debating the harvest window of cannabis, i just do what i think is best for the people smoking it.

I hear ya there man. I think the harvest window get way over analyzed. Everyone is so worried about harvesting at the right moment and seems to have this impression that if they are a few days early or late they are gonna ruin their crop. I would like to see anyone other then a actual test tell the difference between bud that is only a week or 2 apart.

Some harvest shots
Flowered: 59 total days
Trichs: 90%+ cloudy, decent amount of amber, couple clears still
Tried some scissor hash, not fruity at all, mostly skunky. Cure will bring around the flavor quite a bit though.
Im guessing at least 7 ounces. Will be posting what i do get total with some pictures when the time comes aswell as a full smoke report
Some bud shots are not fully trimmed, i usually do it again when im going to place em in jars

Looks good but appears it could've went maybe another 2 weeks as all the pistils are white and haven't started to recede into the calyxes but I'm sure it will be killer still.

I thought she was a bit young by the pics as well, but I prefer a bit to the underripe upper side than the overripe couchy side, so I understand. Lovely chunky buds man, great job! See a lot of sharp tips on tiny tight leaves.. looks like she wasn't much to trim?
Scissor has is my favorite smoke. Only one time of year you really get that... HARVEST TIME BABY!!!

looks like you've got a lot of nice bud there. Personally like to see my buds more ripe and ugly before chop but to each their own. good job.

Ripe is relative to trichomes, and preference, ugly is relative to your growing ability. Many of the best growers keep their plants green and healthy to the end so they produce the best quality and quantity of bud. Trichomes are at their peak of THC when they are cloudy, so it would appear he harvested at about the opportune time for that.
