This is my 5th run growing indoors, I feel I've got the basics of lighting, enviroment, ventilation etc pretty dialed in, I am growing photos and autos I've really gotten in to autos due to the quick turn around and have had pretty good results thus far. My question to the experienced is I think I'm ready for harvest in the next week or so these are zkittles auto from fast buds at week 12 from sprout the sugar leaves are showing heaps of amber and the actual buds are showing a few mostly cloudy I've always harvested at mostly cloudy and when the calyx are swollen pistils receded, these autos are throwing me off cause they seem like they still need some fattening they are no where near as dense as previous autos I've grown. They got locked out during the bulking stage I'm assuming that's why or maybe it's the strain, any how what would you do chop now or push it some more, I dont mind a bit of couch lock and I don't want them to over ripen let me know your thoughts, and happy growing!
