In order to ensure peak potency and yield at harvest you really need a good 30x magnifying glass, you can get them at radio shack for $10.

Here's when to harvest

You trim the fan leaves off and you can make hash/tea/butter whatever with them.

plants do that as they finish off their natural cycle.

some people choose to prune the plants before the drying process, or some after. it doesnt really make that much of a difference. IMO, i'd just dry the whole plant, then when you're getting ready to cure, then trim the fan leaves off.

but look it up somewhere, it should be somewhere in the faq's

My 2 girls look a lot like FDD's pic. All my fan leaves yellowed and fell off. Around the buds, though, there are lots of healthy green leaves. This happened first on one, then the other. It's a natural process as they approach the end of the flowering cycle.
