I wouldn’t go on just tricomes alone. Wait for the hairs to start changing color and start turning back into the buds. Or if you want to go by tricomes you can pull at whatever percentage you want but I have found you gain the most weight in the last couple weeks of finishing. So let them go little longer than you think they should. I don’t think you will see many plants ever harvested to late but that’s just my opinion of coarse
Thanks. I was just reading this in some other threads. I figure I’m at least a couple of weeks off after I looked at my lower buds…no density and almost all white hairs. It’s just so damn exciting as it’s my first grow ever and I want to get it right. I’m really interested to see the harvest weight cause I started this with the idea of getting to harvest and hoping for a quarter ounce lol. I may have surpassed that by a tiny bit….if we get to the finish line!

Patients is the hard part. When you think it’s done tell your self just one more week and then at the end of that week tell yourself again just one more week. Then give them the chop. Growing them is usually the easy part sorry to say. The drying can be were you ruin it all so remember patience and don’t rush things it will pay off for you in the end. Heck you’re doing great for a first grow. Good job keep it going. The learning is what I enjoy the most since I don’t even smoke barely ever anymore. I mainly grow for my sons to enjoy and I give it to all my buddies that partake

Well i took another look on the pictures posted earlier.
Seems to me your close to harvest.
Personally i wouldn't ad scrog anymore.
Thanks man. I’m going to let it go for at least a week since that’s when company leaves but the lower buds are building so I’m going to watch them for a bit with the help of my gnomie. He’s keeping an eye on Big Bertha for me IMG_6155.jpegIMG_6157.jpeg

So ended up having to chop last Thursday and dried at 69-70 degrees/55-62 RH and trimmed last night. We ended up with right at 5 ounces of good bud and 2.75 ounces of trim and larf. Most of all, I learned a lot and gained knowledge and confidence for my next grow so that it will be better. But all in all, not too bad as a first grow and under a 95w (HLG100r) in a 2x2x5.

I’ll be taking them out of the Tupperware, couldn’t find another jar at 2 am lol. IMG_6242.jpegIMG_6243.jpegIMG_6244.jpegIMG_6245.jpeg
