Ready For Chop Chop? Pics

Personally, I wait until the plant has pretty much stopped throwing out pistols and the pistils have receded and the calyxes have swollen up. I'd say you have at least two weeks. I know there's people that chop that early though, I just wait until the plant is done or at least almost done flowering. Your plant is still actively flowering.

I was wondering that myself, as I thought the pistils were still a bit "crazy." I've had some trouble identifying the calyxes and what they SHOULD look like when it's done flowering. I have been watching the pistils for color change.

Thanks for your response!

Wow she looks beautiful !! it would be a shame to rush her. I agree give her another week or two, and if you can buy a jewelers loupe or some type of magnifier so you can check the color of your trichomes.

Patience, she's doing fine, not quite ready, the white pistils should mostly turn Amber, many will recede into the buds. Check the trichs if you can, you will need a magnifier of 40x or more, when they are all cloudy with some amber it is a good time to harvest.
Best of luck.
