Default Harvest question. Help please!!!

Just a quick qestion. My ladies are 6 weeks in flower. The pistils are 75% orange. Can i harvest now or should i wait. Will there be any difference in potency if i harvest now. I knwo teh yeild will be smaller but to be honest i have 3 plants and a few rookie mistakes made them short and not to full. All of the leaves are now yellow and just die off. Actually its more like a plant of buds with no leaves. I just want to knwo if i can harvest now and start over with a new batch.

Would i still get stoned with the buds as is or will it be a waste of my time. I don't really know how much longer they will go for. They just don't look too healthy.

Coments please.

Canadagreen.

you should still get stoned, I would check the trichs though, that is the only way to tell if you can harvest or not.

the trichomes..... they hold the resin (thc), if the trichs are not mature enough, you wont get very high, just a headache. the crystals are what you need to look at, he crystals are the trichs, but you can't tell what color they are with the naked eye, you need a microscope, at least 30X........ less than 15 bucks at radio shack, or look on the internet, i bought mine off the net.

it depends on what kind of high your looking for.......

when the trichs are clear- not mature, don't harvest (where they probably are right now)
trichs are cloudy- up soaring high (daytime smoke)
trichs are amber- couchlock type (bedtime smoke)
trichs are 50/50 cloudy/amber- good mix, all around buzz.
