Trust me, take my word for it, wait for someone else or a vet to tell you the same thing. Check your dry room humidity % 35-45% is good to get away with. Watch closely though. I would say continue mollases for another week or 2 then flush a week or 2 before harvest.. all up to you. no more nutes though and they will be fine they have leaves!
i got a bud drying in there now and its been 3 days and tomorrow morniong iam putting it into a curing jar.. but iam just going by my trichomes..2 weeks would be passed amber..definatly a few more days to go but 2 weeks would be to long accordig to the trichomes some might be done before others tho also...cause the one i picked was all milky and amber and its pretty descent i just hope that smell they get after drying goes away..smell like fresh lawn

just 1 leaf is enough... and unless the buds are extremely airy they are not completely dry.. not b4 the stem.
break a bud n see if its moist if it throw it in a paper bag . buds dry from the outside in.. dont rush.

Dude theres no book on this shit just cause its passing amber doesnt mean too much. You cant make a indica hybrid into a sativa high by harvesting when cloudy. same concept. The plant is still growing lol

Cant agree with this more, they do dry outside in.. so if they are drying to fast and the middle of the buds is still moist.. throw em in a mason jar for a day or half a day till it is evenly moist again. Follow the same steps as needed to reach your desired results.

no you cant, a sativa is a sativa and a indica is a indica... a sativa with amber trichs is still going to give you a head high.. but it adds a lil couch lock. i like my sativas with a lil amber same for a cloudy trich indica its still a couch lock with a lil more head buzz.. trichs dont change genetic characteristics.
well i dunno i dont want to much of a couchlock so i am keeping a close eye on the plant,and all the tech i read always say to go by the trichomes.. not that i do that but iam saying why would they all say that if it isnt true i wish they would give other sugestions,oh and the 50% red hairs theory i hate that

there is deff two schools on this and in reality its all about your preference if its your personal stash but if there is white hairs it will still add weight and thats set in stone, but if your not worried about weight do what you want, me i perfer to let the bud go its natural lifespan its brings out its true flavor and high as it is supposed to be.

thats wrong... after trichs start turning they do so rather quick. u gottaq catch when the trichs are where u want them for your liking.. do u have a microscope.. most people pick at 50-50 cloudy/amber ratio

Thats basically my point except i somehow made it seem compeltely the opposite when i was high. Yes im blaming it on the weed thats my story im sticking too it.

The red hairs is BS lol. Worst way to tell.
yeah i mean i tohught because when i touch my bud it feels cripy on thje plant...thats normal for theh airs to die and fall off? or do whatever i just get worried i guess...and i dont got another 2 weeks i gotta kinda hurry the grow up which is why i posted this threat ion the st place..i mean iam sure they are smokable and will have agood amount of thc but i believe in my situation..the day or 3 might make the difference but who knows
Yeah i know..and there isnt that many amber ones yet..milky clear and few amber..so i guess regardless of what the plant looks like i just have to wait until my likings are satiisfied...but do you t hink if ihad to harvest its def smokable eh?

Yes smokeable, and that sounds good right now doesnt it? thats just cause you WANT them to be done. BUT if you wait until they are actually ripe.. they will weigh much more, taste much better, look much better, smell much better, feel much better, EVERYTHING IS BETTER. Even a measly week makes a difference.. the end of flower is so crucial let it happen ya dig

I just looked at the new pics and really looked at them.. Look at the first pic... so many white hairs still.. and see how the red hairs kinda flare out? well when they are done they will start to recede (or go back into) the buds. This makes them swell and they get bigger. This also will make your bag appeal better. Buds look funky with tons of medusa hairs all over the place lol ive done it.

By the way 60 degrees Fahrenheit is on 15.55 degrees Celsius.. Just to let you know.. you will need something along the lines of 75 degrees Fahrenheit.
