Should i harvest this?

There's a long story behind these plants. Long story short they made it to this point with barely any food. Root locked. And a host of other issues along the way.. it's got surviving sister's that are far less mature then this one. And this one looks like one morning i might wake up and it be laying on it's side dead. This is week 7 of there lives. The suggested seed to weed time is 9-10 weeks (auto flower) which seems to be accurate for the sisters. Just this one seems to have matured faster.. so should i keep waitin it out? Or Will it die before it makes it there?

Got one. They looked milky a week ago tho(mind i only know from internet pics never looked at them on a plant before) and i could clearly tell the buds weren't done

Trics are your best indicators of harvest time. Once you start seeing Amber trics, you're heading for couch lock. Good luck.

Everyone has there own idea of how cloudy is best. To each his own, I say. I like a little less amber than most; 25-50%, and mostly cloudly.

I say chop chop. Hell you have a hankerin to. Even if it's a bit early what the hay. You still have the others. Enjoy the fruit of your labor.Looking at the pic,it has to be close.

I managed to take a pic of the trics

Kinda fuzzy but they look mostly clear.

my $.o2, but that plant is no where near ready to harvest, of course, imo..

a few things i like to look for before i ever even start to look at the trichs, one, all of the pistils should recede back into the buds when they start to get close to harvest.
two, the calyx will start to swell in the last week or two of harvest.. easy to spot once you see it.. once i see those two things happening, i know it's time to start scop'ing out the trichs..

Agree, you can also wait until most white pistils have receded into the buds, the remaining pistils should be Amber, all this time, the buds getting fatter. But as mentioned above, the plant is not quite ready, check the triches when the buds look nice and fat start and look daily at triches until you get your goal that your shooting for,mpersonaly I like cloudy with a bit of Amber.

That poor little girl sucked out whatever nutes could be had out of all her leaves. There isn't much more she is gonna do. Heavy purple stems noted , probably due to lack of nutes during flowering , although some strains can purp up stems , leaves and bud.

Next time around stick to the plan and help your girls finish. I can totally see that this plant COULD HAVE BEEN A CONTENDER !

I'd say a long cure and see what happens.

how hot is it in your room? how close are the lights, amd how much air circulation is going o? ive personally found that not enough. air flow with high temps can greatlyeexacerbate nutrient issues, that along with letting them get too dry.
