Give a dose or two days of darkness and starve water before you harvest will ripen just a trick that works for every plant tomatoes and peppers
 
Yeah they look good, your not premature anymore in regards to ripeness of your plants. If you wait another week though I think she is just starting to really swell, even after the pistils do reseed she swells a shit load more after. If your in it for the type of high, than yeah cut it now but if you want max yield, leave her for at least 2 more weeks. Good job mang.
 
yeah they are ready... looking good too.. nice and frosty.. cant wait for my Chem jack to be ready.. she is caked in trics but about 2 weeks away too
 
Thanks guys...they are down and currently drying in my sI wish i could of gone 1 more week but my gfs mom (where im staying) was getting paranoid bc of the smell....

But they are ready... the sample i took smoked great besides a slight burn in the throat...nothing the cure wont fix im assuming.... im using a hygrometer in the Mason jar with the bud to help cure...aiming for 60% rh as the optimal cure zone and some buds cut 3 days ago are still at 88% rh in jar so thinking about 5 days of dry time will be needed...they're still too wet

Ill update as i progress, thanks for all the help guys and to all the RIU community, you fuckin rock!

Ya, you're real close, personally I would have waited another week, but too late now.Give a couple days if you can, maybe you'll plump up a little more and get a few amber show.
I can't tell from the pics for sure, but I was unable to see any amber at all.
 
excellent crop, looks really nice. How many hours/day of direct sunlight were you getting...when did you start from seed/clone
 
@imchucky666 yea bro i wanted to trust me but my gf and her mom were both giving me shit for the smell and she had some workers coming to remove a large tree falling on the house...i either had to chop or move em off the property ...with no where else to move em i harvested... there was very little amber bc thats what i wanted...its a hybrid and i wanted the sativa to really be evident

Also the strain is master kush grown from seed, planted april 1st and took one clone
 
Good job and be proud you waited way longer than most I've been seeing on here, It's funny I've seen so many people start cutting there's in like mid September complaining about cold weather and rain. I live in Northern Ontario Canada and mine are still in the ground for the most part. Check my weather if your curious Saturday night we hit -4 degrees Celcius (not sure what that is for F). Every thing has been great so far anyway. Good job and I know you'll enjoy those.
 
^^Consider yourself lucky. Mine have been frosted three times and I'm at latitude 40. Some of them have lost nearly all their leaves. Buds look great! I've taken down three so far and the rest will be coming down in the next 3-10 days.
