The best way, that I have found, to tell when your plants should be harvested is the magnifying method of checking the colour of the trichomes. I use a 60-100X magnifying unit that I bought at Radio Shack for around $15. It works very well! Many people use a 30X magnifying glass to check and I have been told that the 30X unit works the best.

Your ladies look very good but they are still a long ways from finished.

Good luck with your grow.

well my girls are 3 months and 10 days old today. started from seed(dunno what kind??)...right now im running 400w of hps....and the temp is around
78'F and around 42 % humidity when the light is on, around 68'F when the lights are off....pH is around 6.5 (soil) and feeding em the tiger bloom every 2-3 days(about 1 gall per plant)....startin to smell good, and also starting to notice slight sugar crystal(trichomes im guessing) on some leaf junctions.....here is the closet up pic i could get of the taller of the 2, which seems to be taking longer to fill out than the shorter one. i have already pruned some lower growth off, but am weary about anything near the bud sprout spots, just been taking off dying leaves periodically. and i think thats the scoop for today...any suggestions???

it closes the pores on the plant surfaces so they stop taking in CO2, and cig smoke produces CO, not CO2

Well it looks like your well on your way to a great grow.

Probably the #1 mistake, I see new growers make, is being in too much of a hurry and they take their plants too early. In their last couple of weeks most plants put on a lot of weight.

Check the trichomes they are the best way I finding out if your ladies are ready for the drying room.

Good luck and I hope you are having fun with your grow!
