are my buds ready??

i'm new to this, first grow. just need to know if it's time to chop. when/if it is.... do i trim off all the fan leaves, water like hell and stick in a dark room for 2 days before drying?

thanks in advance.

still got a couple more weeks at least. looks like 3

Not even close.

Another 4weeks max. what strain is this?

3-4 weeks, not that long to go, be patient and you will be rewarded with a heavy crop.

well shit on my dick....


thanks for the info bromos. ps... strain is a mystery.

http://theweedscene.com/harvesting-marijuana-buds/ There are some pretty decent videos on this site that show you how to tell if your plant is ready to harvest =). I can't wait to be at this stage for the first time!!!

I just got myself a 30x jewelers loupe the other day so I can check out the trichs color when the time comes

YUP THE 30X WORKS PRETTY GOOD I HAVE ONE TOO LOOKING TO GET at least a 60x would be best it think yup buds have a cuple more weeks remember they double in size the last few weeks so just sit back and watch them get bigger

The 30x is just enough to get a close look but in order to REALLY see them a 60x is going to do the trick. I caught myself staring at my bag-o-buds last night for about an hour threw it lol.

np homie, leaves look great in color, your buds will be tasty and full flavored.... good growing mate

yup zip... i have the same one and its good but have to look really good rather just get me that 60x

ok so i'm getting ready to chop... can someone answer part 2 of my ???...

WHAT DO I DO BEFORE CHOPPING? give it like a gallon of water and put it in the dark for 2 days???? lmk if this is the right info i was given, thx.

ps. my leaves all turned light-green and most fell off and i have 2x as many brown trichs. just throwin that out there

Some say no water last 2 weeks and no lights last 2 days. I am very new at this so I hope a master grower chime in soon cause I will need the same answers next month. Lovely grow, wish mine would turn out that nice. Post up some new bud pics. Here is the scope i use. http://www.amazon.com/Carson-MM-200-Micromax-60X-100X-Microscope/dp/B000P8AUMU/ref=pd_sim_indust_2

you water the last 2 weeks you just don't use any Fertilizers and the no lights the last 2 days is a growing technique to make the plant think that winter is here and produce all of its THC glands.

Ya u can do that.
