She looks ready to me, chop it. One of the best smokes I grew in 2011.

Harvest that *itch! Congrats! I remember that look as my 1st plant was always getting burnt by experimenting with the lights. How long have you been flowering?
Sorry bout that, I just re-read where you stated the day's of your flowering cycle thus far. So two months huh! Should be a bit more bulky but it looks ready to me.

Wait, do we know each other?
Aak48 is 7-9 weeks. So they're at 8 weeks. I want to chop, but my husband wants to wait another week!!!! He listens to all of you guys more than me. He's saying there's no amber yet. I say there's a little.

Mara, when I grew it back in 2011 I chopped it around the same time of 60 days. The trichs were mostly all cloudy which is how I like them, I sporadically saw an amber ones here and there. The smoke was superb. The ball is in your court guys, you need to experiment with several stages of trich coloring to tell how you like your smoke the most imo, if someone recommends to chop now, doesn't make them an idiot.
Cheers.

Pls dnt listen to this idiot! it's ready enuff for you to enjoy, just dry/cure correctly and you will be fine. I just think it should be more fatt if flowering for two months. How tall is your plant Mara? My plant that is budding now has only been in flower-mode for 6 going on the 7th week and it's as big 0r maybe a lil fatter than yours. Could be due to strain type so, no worries! Yours looks pretty much done considering the white hairs look as if they receded. Keep up the good work....
I think we stunted them a bit in vegetative. We had a fan in the grow room and my brother called "hurricane Katrina" lol. But it made the stalks really strong! My lights come on in a n hour. I'll take more pics for everyone. Tank you all so much again! It's really nice of you guys to help me out!!

It matters on your personal preference. I personally like 35% amber for the fully ripened taste, smell, and effect. If you like wussy head highs and bud that doesn't taste quite right, then you can harvest a little earlier. If you like the heavy amazing buds, I'd harvest with a higher percent of amber trichromes

After you chop that's it! They continue to mature when left in the dark for 2 0r more days(personal preference)b4 harvest, however.
