Hi there community, thanks for taking a minute to check out my post.

So my girls are 7 weeks and 4 days since I flipped to 12 / 12.

I was hoping to get some comments on when I should harvest, I believe I'm getting close to the glorious day so this week I stopped nutes and began watering with just ph'd water.
Any guesses at a wet or dry weight would be appreciated too.


For a bit of background on the plants I FIM'd the bigger lady and topped the smaller one twice. Some LST with the scrog net and away they went into flower. I know what I'm doing from now on lol (fimming them all)

Started with 3 and the one that was doing the best at the end of veg went crazy hermie and had to go.

Probably another 10 days to 2 weeks, get something to magnify the trichomes, you want to be harvesting with mostly milky/cloudy and amber. This is the best way to be sure.

Yea I've been trying to track down something with decent magnification for that exact reason. 2 weeks eh? Should I have stopped nutes this week?

Depends on your opinion on flushing nutes or not, some say keep feeding till you chop, others say stop.
Get a cheap jewlers loupe off ebay/wish etc, does the job perfectly.
They're looking good though, good job on your first grow!

I'll be ordering one pronto, likely wont get here in time to judge this round but will be handy for future grows.
Thanks for complimenting them, for my first time I think I did alright !
Any guess on what I'll pull off the big one that's most visible in the larger pics.

I took off a single small section of the larger plant to get a good look at the trich colors. I couldn't get pics with the 40x loupe I'm using so these phone snaps are the best I could do for a post.
I'd say the colors were 95% cloudy and 5% amber. I think I'll give them this next week to plump up some more (fingers crossed) and than likely harvest.
