hey looks good. I would say you would be totaly safe to harvest now if you like. but letting the plant go a bit monger, maybe a week or 2 would only make the buds more narcotic like. its pretty much your preference at this point.

do you think shell fatten up more if i leave her for another week?

eh.. looks like most of ur leafs have been pretty much sucked dry, chances are the plant wont have another swell. the extra week will give the older tricromes more time to mature and turn amber. just mean ur smoke will be more potent and make you a bit more drowsy.

actually i looked a bit closer at you pictures, i think you should let it go a few more weeks. you should definatly flush the plant at least a week prior to harvesting. this will give the plant time to use up the rest of its stored up nutrients, and get that chemical taste from the fertilizers out. wait for more red hairs, do you have a microscope? at least 30x

naw i dont have a micro altho i kno i should get one soon maybe Christmas haha. hmm that info is good to know thanks yall ill probably be flushing for another week or so then 24 hr darkness then chop. but chea so there is no chance it will fatten up more. and should i wait till all the leaves are dried up cuz the plant stores food in its leaves right? so if i wait till most of them are dead do u think shell grow more? also there seems to be tons more white pistils still popping up every mourning i check on her is that normal? but cha thanks for all the help guys...

yeah thats whut i was thinking too the hairs are almost all red now and i can see a lil bit of amber triches in em so i cant want ill post up some pics soon when i harvest this bitch but for now imma keep flushing tha shit out of her haha
Definitely a good idea. I've always kind of gone on the feel of the cola before harvest. Certain outer parts of a cola will dry while other parts still experience new growth. Obvisously leaving a plant too long (read it online) it can result in a slgith reduction of THC (basically very small amount, but with lack of production at stage of dying). I usually yank 'em when it feels about 1/3 slightly dry (like some parts are drier than others) or I go by when about 60-70% of the hairs have turned red. Leaves can be a good indicator too, the longer ones go first, the shorter ones near the top start to turn brown when it's done. Give it 5 days on water and hang 'er up!
