Havent taken any since they were seedlings lol. They're asleep right now so ill post some in next few days :)

Why do we have to wait sooooo long for a good smoke. Btw had a finger hash joint after harvest and it was awesome!

Also, do you have a ballast for your light, looking into upgrading my CFLs

@mark davies You wont get high, if all the trichomes are clear the THC is not fully developed, in other words it won't work. You have to wait until at least half of the trichomes have turned cloudy. It would be better to harvest late than early, and make sure you do it based on trichome maturity rather than time constraints etc. Looking good btw.

@Joe Blows Trees I just got myself a 250w hps and a ballast for a decent price, hopefully it'll increase my yields.

@markdavies thelemon is right, atleast wait until the trics are half cloudy for a decent high. Looking good.

@TheLemon it should definitely help yield and density. I'm gonna check the trics on my og kush I topped once tomorrow. She's looking close to being in the prime harvest window. The one I topped twice probably has another 7-10 days.

@mark davies I know u might not want to listen, especially when it looks so nice, but i sampled some white widdow at week 6 and it did nothing but taste like grass and give me a headache, take a small sample if you're desparate, that way atleast you'll know for sure ya know. hope all goes well bro.

@Joe Blows Trees Good, good. Im hoping it will, i want some hand sized colas for cryin out loud. Damn i hope my kushes are similar to og kush, i know how super nice it is. Still havent chopped my WW btw so now prime window means nothing to me, that guy the other day taking bout 9/10 weeks was probs right, i havent topped my next lot to see what happens but with the ones after that i will do multiple toppings. good luck btw.

@TheLemon thanks. I'm sticking to topping once for now. I want to scrog the next time I top more than once so I can create a more even canopy with pretty equal size colas. Focusing on genetics more next two runs. Patience will pay off for all of us! :bigjoint::blsmoke::clap:

Very frosty, but I'm not sure. I'm wondering the same thing about my og kush. It's about 75-80% orange hairs but they're still standing up. It's one week past the breeders recommend harvest time. I just read a statement saying "if you think it's ready, wait a week!" Hahahaha.

Think I'll get a scope tomorrow.
 
excellent job!!! My 1st grow started last week - just sprouted.
Love looking through these threads to motivate and excite me. Hope to have as good a grow as you had!
Cant wait to see the pics of the chop and final dry weight - pat yourself on the back.
PS - all breeders definitely put the absolute earliest time to harvest on their seeds for marketing purposes. My friends all wait until you get more cloudy - almost amber color in the trichomes before harvesting.

I'm in the same boat. Mine sprouted just a couple of days ago. Threads like this are very motivating!
