Ok, I've read that when there drying many leave in search for water. But I can't really do much with the hanging one's. Thank you

You need to remove worms by hand on the plant still out there. It's a pain but worth it. Once you cut the buds the worms will vacate on their own - you'll see them hanging by webs from the drying buds.

Wont be able to make it up this weekend. My wife gave me a bad cold.

If the worms are bad cut it now and save what you have. Early bud is better than worm eaten bud. And it looks great. The buds could definitely still mature a bit more from the pics but they are mature enough for an early cut with reduced yield. Do you know how many weeks they've been flowering?

Ok, the worms are on drying bud. I'm thinking 8 weeks. That sucks man. One of the plant has moth eggs but I haven't noticed worms or signs of them being eaten. Thank you man

420th post! Plants are down! So the first one I cut early, checked the other today and certain buds were really amber. Also getting rain tonight. :)

They look great. Stay on top of the worms bro. Smoke a nice bowl and relax while looking for them to pull off the buds. You could harvest some top parts right now if you see a lot of amber. 20% amber is the most you should go IMO.

Looks pretty good to me man. I love that you have the buds hanging in the bedroom heh. Next time try to hang the buds in a dark room. Lights during dry and cure will degrade the THC properties.

Looks great! And I wouldn't worry too much about about the light in your room. Strong light might degrade THC very slightly but there's no way your room lighting is going to have much of an impact.

All is good. Gastanker is right it won't effect much anyways. It is just personal preference. I want to smoke some of that :)
