Everyone seems to be harvesting early. Weather or?

I'm in Western Oregon, and the weather has been spectacular. So long as the rain stays away, I'm holding out until I see amber.

I just checked mine last night and theres some Amber comming out on mine, I'm about 3 weeks ahead of last year.
I thought it was because of all the smoke from the fires uf here.
I'm East of Redding in the mountains.

We've had some pretty shitty weather here lately ..Eastern Can., rain for 3 days sun for one. rot started getting to soime of the girls so I decided to do some selective harvesting ..anything above the rot spots got done, anything below got left for another week... I'm kinda glad I did too cause all that trimming at once woulda been a bitch .. lol lost a little ..but man is it sticky ... and wuts left on the tree is swelling like mad now that tops are gone..
Good luck to all .. may you enjoy the months of hard labour... I know I am

I harvest when both amber take over and it finishes swelling. It seems like its two distinct products when compared side bayside have not harvested. Lucky weather is fine. Sativa taking its time. I think some people don't feel like waiting that long is nessesary to obtain decent smoke, that's his I thought until I harvested past the 8 weeks. Ambers always appear on leafs first on Calyx is different. They will start to REAllY appear and ripen an swell fully 7-8 weeks. Some people dont realize that calyx shrink 1 -2/3 and need to swell as much as possible. The last days really almost double in weight and size and signifacally ripen I stop feeding at the 7 week and if I can introduce full darkness " in the last days" Plenty of carbs throught the bloom stage as well as humic acids fulvic.2 weeks " past harvest time" can't hurt actually it only makes it that much better
