Hi all,

my amnesia Auto from Sensi seeds is looking towards the end. She’s in her 107 days and usually, by supplier website it’s till 90 days.

she is still drinking water in decent amount, trichomes are like 30% brown and fan leaves are gone,
Pistols are mostly brown curled inside, some are still white

I am wondering whether to harvest now or give her another feed and wait one more week..
What do you guys think?

I prefer less stoney/tiring highs so if I see 30% orange trichomes the plants are being chopped within 24 hours. Lots of guys on here prefer to go as ripe as possible which isn't the only way to have a good product. When the heads of your trichomes turn orange/amber that means the THC has converted to CBN. CBN is what makes you tired, hungry, lazy, "stoned". If your going for more of a productive high I wouldn't let the trichomes go beyond 30% amber with milky heads showing.

p.s Always check trichomes of the mid-canopy buds, don't just check the very tops.

I only see milky heads and some amber ones around 20-30% I never tried to harvest around that percentage, ig I will try it out!

It depends on what you want! If you harvest now, you’ll have a higher THC count, considering when trichomes turn brown they turn harbor more CBD. Personally. I wouldn’t feed again, I’d let it grow another couple days maybe a week, then chop. You should usually be 1-2 weeks without added nutrients before harvest. Helps with drying process and guarantees none of the garbage is left in the plant. I’be been studying and growing for a couple years. So that’s my thoughts!! Your plants definitely look ready to harvest! Buds look great, good trichomes too, perfect training aswell. Looks good!! Hope this helps!

That sounds cool as well, no feed before harvest? I thought this period is where they need feed the most!
the one thing why I’m mostly hesitant is that she is drinking a lot of water, which is her telling me, feeeeed me
