Patience is Very important at this stage,dont let those juicy buds talk you into cutting them too early.:weed:I know its tempting,but the wait will be worth it.I know, because I cut 1 of 2 plants down at 7 weeks and now wish we would of waited a week or 2 longer.plant 2 is still filling in.she is at 9 weeks now.Ive read from some good growers(like fdd2black) that you want the plant to have a "done" look to it.yes it will look like its dying,cuz it is.If you want max potency I'd wait.heres what mary(plant 2) looks like this morning.Week 9
by the way this is also bagseed indica.we think Nl x?:leaf:

Ya dude def a couple more weeks. No more nutes though. About the whole change of high. I have never had a problem. The strain is the strain.It shouldn't matter letting it run longer. Use your ppm tester and keep testing every day and bring it down to water the ppm of just your plain water your using is

When harvesting, it does make a difference if you let it run a little longer. More amber, more couchlock, more milky, more energetic up kinda high.

Some people harvest earlier then others, because the strains are too strong. get your facts straight before posting :)

I would say atleast another 2 weeks:bigjoint:

It most certainly does matter when you harvest!
There has been much research in this area for sure.
The consensus is that trichomes are most potent at the point before it clouds.
Each trichome is it's own entity.
Because of this, they don't all mature at the same day.
Older ones are more mature then younger ones.
So, the idea is to harvest when the highest percentile of trichomes have peaked.
That is why you wait for some to get amber and others to start getting milky.
Hoping to catch her at her peak of overall maturity.
