    Talking Its bout that time! Chop chop

    Hey guys my girls are bout ready to harvest! finally. I have 1 great white shark, 1 willy wonder, and 1 purple kush strain. all look like they will harvest a little over an ounce each. i grew indoors. is that a decent yield? my question is that i kno they are nearing the end, trichs are filling up and pistils are half amber color half white, but i hear that leaves should be yellowing and falling off. is this with all plants or just sometimes? a good portion of my leaves are still healthy green. any advice helps!

    Pics or it didn't happen

    It's personal preference dude.. your plant may be done before all the fan leaves are gone.. if your like me can just keep waiting till they are all gone and you get a lil extra yield and a wicked body high

    Whenever you think its done.. wait a week, then harvest

    What space did they have to grow and what lights were you using?

    An ounce per plant (depending on pot size and a few other factors) is not bad. I know that some buddies and I used to pull about an ounce+ from 1 gallon pots indoors. Thats with from clone, and like a few days of veg.

    Anyway, the best way to tell if your plant is ripe is by the Trichs (crystals)...not the pistils (hairs). You will need a magnification device of some sort obviously. When trichs are clear, you need to wait longer. When the majority are turning a milky/cloudy color, its time to chop (this will give you more of a heady high). When the trichs begin to turn amber..its time to chop...(this will give more of a heavy body stone).

    If you wait much longer after the trichs have turned amber..you are losing THC content...it is degrading in the plant itself.

    I am currently posting a kush grow and I just started week 8 and all the trichs are still clear so it seems like I got awhile left. I am not sure but I guess every strain is a little different. I think I may go another 2 -2 1/2 weeks. CHeck out my journals let me klnow what you think. Also let me know on the space you have and lighting system your using. It makes a huge difference on what you'll yield.

    That does not seem like that much in relation to the size they had to grow. They have way more area than mine and it looks like I will get about 10-12 ounces out of my 5 plants. They only have 2 1/2 x 2 1/2 by 7 ft to grow. I also used a 400 mh/hps bulb. I guess every plant is different.

    The green growth on your plant is a direct reflection of the amount of nutes still available. You should be feeding little to nothing by now therefore the leaves will start to yellow and die off. How fast and how much they yellow differs greatly from strain to strain depending on their nutrient usage.
    All drugs should be legal and tax based on the percentage of death per drug.
