Chop time or wait?

Shes looking pretty solid compared to my last round which i chopped at 90 days im at day 97 now.

Strain is white widow auto. Heat stress took a toll on her but i think it will still smoke well.

Oh yeah looks ready to me! If you want to be precise on harvest times I would suggest getting a jewelers loop.

a old grower told me this .........when u think it looks pretty and u want to cut it .....wait 2 weeks u will be happy u do

personally i would back off on any feed other then resin builders.......hit the plant with a few days of UV light and water swell the gland heads while flushing the plant out

I have a portable microscope and some of the trichs look cloudy then some bulks dont, or since this is my 2nd go i may just be to inexperienced to tell. But its hard to use and get a good focus. I think I'll wait another 2 weeks though. Seems like it could do no harm.

Thanks for the input guys

A friend of mine told me to check a guerilla grown plant at night in the woods or wherever it is, shine a flashlight on it and if it looks like a fresh made Glazed donut, you are good to go...probly gotta stand a good few yards away, I'd guess, but it seems like that would corelate with 90% of the triches being cloudy white, and would eliminate the need of a good microscope/ loupe.... just an odd thought...

What seed company did you get the WW from? I'm running one Dutch Passion myself right now, just LSTed her today...

I bought mine from Amsterdam marijuana seeds. It was the only one at the time i found who had WW auto in stock and shipped into the US. I think I'd like to try that royal dwarf auto that I see a lot of people talking about or an AK

I've got a good mix in my second grow and am posting on all that work today, all but two plants are now top-bent-over position using plastic insulated copper wire and tying it off at the soil level of the fabric pots. I have a feeling this garden is going to grow right past my abilities she is already becoming demanding lol...Update to follow in signature link (Current grow) page 4 check it out My Dutch P. WW is just starting to throw good pistols and new leaf growth like mad, and looks like the LST will max her out in about 60 to 70 more days...sorry not trying to hi-jack your post or anything just thought you might be interested...

Also, there is probably a good measure of truth in the flashlight in the dark trick looking like a glazed donut when you're triches are ripe...other than that you need better pictures, and I personally would expect a lot more trichome production before she is ready even though she does look like she has had it a bit rough after all it IS "White" Widow, right? lol... just my two cents.
