After a while the THC begins to decrease, and I've heard that scientists believe CBD production goes up near the end. With this, you get a lot less of the soaring "high" feelings, and more of the stoned feelings. It is supposedly believed that CBD actually has the medical benefits, and not THC by its self. I don't know if any of this is true, it's what I've read.

Anyways, let me know how it turns out. I'm currently growing blue widow, getting ready to flower.

many of the answers above are correct but they all forgot to mention that there is a window of harvest not just the right day. For instance if you do like the soaring highs of sativas you could harvest an indica right as 70-80% of the trichomes are milky looking under your scope, conversely if you like the couch lock stone of most indicas then you might want to consider waiting until the trichomes are about 50% cloudy and 50% amber. The more amber the more couch lock it will be. remember also that indicas are quick finishers and have a small window of harvest while sativas may actually go in and out of good havest conditions because of the way they grow and how long they grow. there may be a good looking day to chop it down but then it might put on a growth spurt and the fiber/leaf/stem to bud ratio goes up again untill they fill in once more. sativas are much more forgiving of a late harvest because of this... so stay on the scope and monitor those trichomes carefully (and don't just check one bud, go from top to bottom and watch the progression).

Maine buds has the same pic above of trichs that I have seen in a few places and are very good pics to learn from....
