Harvest Time: A Tutorial

yo I had my plant for about 9 months, so why arent my buds hairs brown yet????? Any tips for a first time grower??? SirTokeAlot213 would appreciate it man

ive heard that direct wind can cause the hairs to stay white, or continue forming new white hairs, or something like that...

you said on 5/16 2-3 weeks so you think that's still good to chop between 5/30 - 6/6

there ya go in my grow room they got from right to left 6-5-4-3-2-1
 
i can't scroll thru all those big pics to make any since of that. sorry, i'm really sleepy.

all the ones with brown dried hairs are done. the ones with white hairs can go a little longer but look really close.
 
Ive got my very first "real" plant, and ive done a sort of LST, but actually pinned it to the soil to its profile is only about 5" tall in a 10" diameter pot. So its a smaller plant, with seven nice colas. I am unsure of whether it is "ready" ?

what do you all think? Its been flowering for 8 weeks and 1 day. oh right - this is just one plant, not several small ones.

thanks!!!

now we wait.......

i like to let the outside of the bud get crispy but not the stem. i like to start the cure with the stems still bendy. i let the bud dry until it is smokable. if i can smoke a doobie and it stays lit yet the stems still bend without snapping then i know i am at the perfect time. i cut all my large branches and buds down to small nuggies.........

when you say you let it dry till smokable do you mean when you can grind it in a grinder or just pickin at it. the reason i ask is because i have had weed before that wont grind but when picked will smoke quite good.

My weed is like that at the mo. Smokable but not grindable.
 
thanks for the feedback! i have been plucking little guys off it because my patience is on vacation. I'll let you know how the harvest goes. What do you think of the method i used? Meaning: all low to the soil and pinned down? Any suggestions for improvements? My limitations are space and money. maybe i let it veg longer next time and get more branches?

Thanks!
