Is Girl Scout Cookies a strain to keep?

I may have been all wrong about GSC. She's coming down today and her colas are much heavier than I thought they were, and there are many more of them than I thought. In a nutshell not only was I wrong about GSC I suspect she will be a fantastic producer. I'll get a final dry weight in a week. Maybe all that pain in the butt supporting all of those branches was worth it after all. And she is gumming up the scissors like a motherfucker. I didn't even make it through 1 cola before I had to clean the blades. I usually make it through a half hour of trimming maui before that happens. The smell is very unique. Kinda like a dessert. Sweet with floral notes. I haven't smelled anything like it since I was in high school smoking northern lights. Here's a pic of a trimmed bud. My camera sucks donkey balls. My apologies. Got a charger on the way for the iphone 5 I ordered off ebay just to take pics. Lost the dam charger before I ever even took a single picture

Looks like you harvested too early.

Based on what? It was flowered for 71 days. Trichomes are milky throughout with the glands on the tops turning amber. Resin glands turn amber when degradation has begun. I actually flowered them a bit longer than I should have. Some of the buds on in the middle of the plant were so overly ripe they weren't even worth trimming. Tossed on the hash pile. Thanks for your insight though.

Here are some shots of critical mass coming down tomorrow

Based on the first pic in your last post. I'm looking at the pistils and calyxes. The pistils could've receded more and the calyxes would've swelled more.

The plant you're about to chop looks closer to being done than the one I was talking about, but I would still probably give that one another week. I like to let them fatten up really good.

With trichomes degrading you would wait another week? I'm glad I don't buy weed from you. Critical mass needs another week too eh? I probably better just hash it all and start from scratch. Thanks for getting me back on track. Sky's the limit from here

Don't feel bad. Lots of people harvest too early.

I'm sure you're use to being confidently incorrect in many aspects of your daily life. And it entertains the rest of us. I see why @bk78 mercilessly rakes your nuts through the coals. Someone who can't even identify a ripe flower giving grow advice to others is about as entertaining as it gets. I certainly hope nobody actually takes growing advice from a tool box like you.

Man look at all those white hairs
