Am I ready to Harvest?

Okay so i am on day 64 of my first stealth grow, 48 days ago I started flowering my plant.

Im just looking for some tips on how to know when its ready and for a few opinions on when i should harvest. I plan on harvesting on august 30, is that a good time or should i wait?

PICS: Just some pics of some buds.



So what do you think?

Looks like you still have a few weeks.

I don't think they will be ready by the 30th, still see a lot of white hairs. You will want to get a 30-60x pocket scope and check out your trichomes. I don't check on my trics until the hairs start reddening (is that a word?) off. The hairs will start to change reddish brown and recede back into the bud.

yeah i got a scope but its 60-100x but yeah i didnt think so but i was just following by anothers journal

My bad that's what I meant 60-100, not 30-60. It's hard to wait but totally worth it in the end bud.

yeah ive been following the book Marijuana Buds for Less: Grow 8 oz. of Bud for Less Than $100 but since i had a stealth box i did things a little quicker like throwing into flowering, i did mine a few days before. since i did mine a few days before everthing has been happening a few days before the book says it happens(like the sex being shown). so in the book harvest day is coming and since everthing been a few day before i was hoping i would be harvesting a few days before and that day would be the 30th.

I know every grow is diffrent but hey it would be cool if i could harvest the 30th but i can wait for better potency ive already been waiting this long.

Does anyone know any good tips on harvesting and curing? ive been reading some but i want to know which ones actually work.

I would wait atleast two weeks. also have you cut back on the nutes just seems to be a little yellow towards the bottom?
