My gameplan

I always love to ask people that,
Not just about weed but about negative situations people encounter.

In my experience there is always at least a bit of wisdom gained
But sometimes we forget to look back and acknowledge it.

By looking we get good at finding and eventually in the midst of a shit storm
You feel a tad better knowing you have a history of not simply surviving but
Coming out the other end somehow better.
Or maybe Im just an annoying fuckhead.

It will make an excellent veg tent

Ha btw your first harvest is way better then the beasters i grew those first few times

Awesome! i cant wait until my harvest, i need the approval of my senpai Hahah

Nah you got that

@Cold$moke how long do you think?

To me it looks like 50/50 clear /cloudy

Id give it a few days yet

But its subjective.. if you like a racey dope high pull when its clear lol you want to take a nap go more amber..completly up to you .

But the yeild can suffer if pulled to early

I like it when they are all cloudy and a few amber

Cause i know during my slow dry they will ripen for about another week while SLOWLY drying

Also when checking for doneness

Pick a not so perfect bud that you dont mind knocking the trichs off of and give it a squeeze
till you notice it get dense youll feel a differwnce between not quite ready (fluffier ) and ready (hard )

I'm doubting myself on trichomes here. Might need some opinions. Day 123, day 83 flower.
I want more of a body high. But not TOO much you know? I think it's like 10%amber right now?
Turned off HPS for these pics.
@Cold$moke @NrthrnMichigan need some pros. I'm anxious.

This is probably the best one. Sorry I need a better way of looking at trichomes I know these pics suck

It looks like its in the harvest window by the crystals the hairs not so much

But as long as you got mostly cloudy vs clear

The amber thing is more of a preference but definetly wait till the crystals are cloudy and engorged .

Either way good job bud
Dont forget to give em 24 hrs dark and cut before you flick the lights on (just my preference)

Getting close...very nice harvest you will have!! Pretty hard to tell trichs by your pics but the plant pic looks like it's swelled nicely and very close if not already time to chop. Good job on your grow.

Post this pic full page not thumbnail...so We can zoom in on it.

I just don't want to go too long :/ let me know what you guys think of that full image.
I

Do you have a drying area and all your chop chop stuff ready?

If not let if go into 24 hrs dark while you get everything you need to chop set up

I see no amber which is hard to believe going into 12th week of flower.

I don't really see much either... very odd. But I can say the bud is fattening every time I see it, it also seems like the color has been changing and the hairs color has been cha ging as well.
But @Cold$moke you think its ready to go??

When you are looking thru your scope are you checking inside at the bottoms of the colas as well? When you see new white pistils form this late into flower it could be the start of fox tailing and that starts new green growth as well. I would check some of the older parts of the bud..True you do not want to pass that window of chop time.

I got more trichome pics I took today. Here's one. I have decided it's time for harvest. My lights are currently on. Should I turn them off and do the 24 hours of dark and chop tomorrow?

Yea I look all over the plant. I feel I'm pretty thorough. Also, no new growth to my eyes.
