get a 60-100x microscope and look at the trichomes. once 80% of the trichome heads have turned amber there ready

Is that amber in the last closeup shot? I can't tell because it's blurry

Watch them closely, and then stop watering once 10 - 40% of the trichs turn amber - depending on what you're looking for.

dont think they are amber yet, thanks for your advice, wasnt aware about the trichomes needing to be amber.....will remember that for sure now though, lucky I asked as I was reaching for the scissors in a couple days, will def wait them out now.

harvesting stoney? 80 percent isnt stoney thats perfect anyone who doesnt WASTED their time, it makes me wanna throw up to watch people pick premature buds, and im not sayin any names and im not trying to be a super dick but quit going around telling people to harvest early, just cause you like to not finish the job dont let newbies do the same. :spew:

at 50% amber trichomes the thc has reached maximum maturity and will give u maximum cerebral buzz. but if u want da stoney feelin of the body high harvest at 80%. at this point the cbn will be at maximum potency....
