fire in the hole dude I say its done

Negative, in fact, if the majority have turned cloudy, the THC has already reached peak and is now degrading. When it turns amber, it is degraded into CBN's, which produce a narcotic like couch lock and general overall lousy feeling. The March edition of High Times indicates many of us are allowing our plants to lose potency before we harvest. We strive for the most potent strains, we spend hundreds on nutrients, meters, etc, all to strive for the perfect yield in weight and buzz, only to let the flowers sit and degrade.

I read that same artical in hightimes, was a good read. but it bring up the hole thing where most of us are waiting to long to chop down. I for one wait till the last day/minute
I can to get the most wieght I can. but I think im going to try the growers method of when to chop and see if theres a increase in thc.

+rep I think if you can get that issue then you should

that girl is DONE! Great job man! I have some Vanilla kush, Querkle and LSD at a month veg from Barney's. You just made me reeealllly wanna throw em into the flower chamber. Let us know how the smoke is yes?
