LA Woman ready a week early??

ok so this lady here has been in 12/12 for 7 weeks and a few days now and I have yet to start a flush. From what I have read she is a 9 week strain but by looking at it now it seems real close. Most of the hairs have turned, I'm not to sure about the trichs though. At the very least im thinking i should start the flush, I don't think I'm going to need 9 weeks. what do you think?



lower bud

Yeah that looks ready, i would harvest now.
nice buds btw. Looks great

Yeah man looking good, I'd harvest her.

Thanks guys. So I'm going to start my flush and get on with it. HELL YEAAA. Thanks again guys.

Yeah man! those hairs are orange as fuck which means the time has come. Nothing but clear water and white smoke from here!!

Sick, quick question kinda stupid but gotta make sure, I still want to ph the flush water right? I just don't want to taste anything but the sweet greens so i wanna make sure.

Oh yeah definitely. Always check PH before you give anything to your plants. If your using tap water this is especially true. If your using bottled water than theres really no point but i always double check.

Right on, I knew that just needed to check. thanks man for the replies +rep

so then what is the main tell it's ready the hairs or the trichomes? and it says it should take 9 weeks and im only at 7 and a 1/2. I feel like im thinking to much into it i just want to make sure i enjoy all this work and time.

no love? alright well Im going to go ahead and get started on the flush like I said before, unless i hear otherwise. I'm just worried cause it says 9weeks (im at 7 1/2) of flower and my trichomes are still mostly clear but my hairs are red. so ill wait a little then go at it. Let me know if I'm messing up if you have worked with this stain before.

You seem to have this figured out, give it a good flush with plenty of water, wait another 3/4 days and cut her,,,, she looks tasty!

Well, if most of the hairs are still white then you should wait longer. It wouldn't hurt to wait another week or two just to be sure. Can i see a few more pics of the whole plant? Check out this grow guide, it has helped me over the years....http://www.a1b2c3.com/drugs/mjgrow9c.htm
Therein, it states:
"The optimal time to harvest marijuana plants is when THC production has reached its maximum. A rough guide as to when to harvest is to wait until 50%-80% of the white pistils (hairs) have turned dark (usually brown or red). But a better method of determining when to harvest is to wait until certain trichomes on the plant have matured.

I'd just flush for the remaining week and a half.

flush away as you are supposed to do it 10 days out---I got Blind sided too on my Mystic Blu and Purple Kush----- I thought I had a few more weeks to go too. Go get a small 12 dollar Microscope at Radiocrack (the one with a battery) and check your tri's. To be sure and not harvest to early and have a short high and crash. Use the Micro in the sunlight for best clarity. snip a small bud leaf or an area that is snowed in and look for cloudy or clear or hazy or brown etc... I like body high for pain mngmt and I wait till 75 % of the tris are just going yellow to caramel. If you like head high for stress or sedative then get em while they are cloudy.
Hey---you know what It may take a few extra hours to manicure but i can check tri's and make cloudy pile and golden brown pile and bottle it and label it so i can use morn and night or whatever.

I'm not sure but u cood probably wait atleast a week. U want the hairs to draw int real tight on the buds that is when they are nice and filled with resin. Anywayz on a unrelated topic what is the smell olike with ur la woman I got a free bean that was supposedly la woman and it is sum of the tastiest shit I've ever had so I'm kinda curious if that's really what it is. Cuz otherwise I have to rely on revegging this clone I took the first week of flowering.

I wouldn't harvest yet I like too harvest when the leafs of the plant start residing into the buds that when I know thats all she give in Yield wise
