Chopping off 1 cola

I have a plant with about 7 colas, if I chop one off for an early smoke, will this impede the growth of the other six? and if so, how badly? Will it kill the plant? About 4 weeks into flowering btw...

While I don't, lots of folks harvest a little at a time, but it's usually removing the ripe stuff.

I don't think it'll hurt what's left . . . you're simply decreasing the proper harvest.

at 4 weeks it may not be that great. but i hear ya, i get excited and want to cut early too but i alway fight it.......its not worth it.

But its covered in trichomes, its just that the pistils are still mostly white and the trichomes are not amber, so it should be good right?

It'll probably get ya nice and high, but not as high as it will in X weeks . . . and it won't taste like the finished final product.
Mine are trich covered before the buds even appear, but I'd be a fool to cut those upper leaves off.

u will get a head ahce and pissed off that u didnt wait trust me

What? ive never heard of that... u sure about the headache?

dont cut it off!!!! leavae it bee just be patient man its not gonna be a good smoke

Oddly enough this just happened to me, I cut some of the inner/lower buds from my flowering sativa and after smoking it today I got a mean headache and had to pop some excedrin. I had to try it since this is my first grow.

And I'm at 6 weeks....

4 weeks its not even close to being ready. It will not hurt the plant.

if uve been using nutes u will get a wicked head ache because the plant is not flushed and even if u havnt dont cut it!!!!! 4 weeks is no wear near done so it wont even rolly get u high

I'm assuming this post is an outdoor related one..

Indoor, you can veg for 4 weeks, flower for 4 weeks.. Am i correct? I swear I've read it on numerous posts on here..

indoor can be alot quicker but if it hasnt ripened even a little you will regret it. ever had an unripe apple or orange? horrible! same thing goes here..
btw, mine are covered in trichs early too but they are all clear which means low thc percentage.

I don't know of any 4 week flowering-to-ripe strains myself. Most take at least 8.

hmm, I smoked the leaves from some broken branches (critters) from my Sativa's just as they started budding, harsh taste of course but clean lightweight high and no dullness after it finished. High only lasted about an hour though.

Smoke tinny bud at 3 weeks and same affect with bit better high lasted hour and a half with a clean exit as before

4 weeks flower???

no way buddy,we all know what its like,wanting to cut and smoke it,but you wont be able to smoke it properly for a week after its cut anyway,itll taste like shit,and yes,basically just give you a headache.

wait my friend wait,its all about the patience

and no,like they say,it wont hurt the plant

What the f#*ck are you growing that flowers in 4 weeks. Please let us know so we can all get sum and smoke it while we wait for our 8 week crop to finish up.
