All this talk about amber, well im not waiting....

They most likely smell like hay right now, if you chop them before the trichs turn they will never get the dank smell and you will be pissed. Just saying put up some pics and wait. I wasted half a pound

"That is three wasted days. Maybe in your opinion but I've found it to be beneficial."

True. I should of threw in IMO. But there is ZERO studies proving three days or any amount of total darkness at the end of harvest provides any positive benefits. I tried it many times in my early days, it doesn't do a thing. As a matter of FACT, plants need light in order to produce resin in the dark hours. So there is info out there that proves this darkness voodoo is probably myth.

To each their own.

It's the system, not a person. Got racism?

i know ww is notoriously long. which is why its not cost efficient for indoor growers. but i guess if you're growing it outdoors it doesn't matter...but you're not. you are growing yours indoors and it isn't ready. put the scissors down and step away from the plant sir.

before the thichs turn what? cloudy or amber? this is interesting. never herd of this but the buds that i have pulled a little early do not smell as much as the ones that i let go longer.

ok guys, i guess i could go longer, im not so worried about max yeild, just max strength, im not one for couch lock either, ill be keeping a close eye on the trics, ill resume feeding , lol

ill be back.........

Well if you're looking for max strength.. I would wait it out. I mean you spent months growing this plant why not wait few weeks more to make it all worth while? You should understand the plants first, most of your potency comes in the last few weeks of riping, which you are not there yet. Aromas and taste also come into play later on the plants end of life cycle. Thats why you see so much mid-grade, no taste, not as high as I want to get crap floating around from chodes chopping early just to make a buck. Unfortunately this is what the medical MJ industry has become, don't be one of those guys.

i've done a few early harvests, it's a different high but it's still a damn good high.

yeah... it can be pretty okay. I find the occasional disproportionate Tetrahydrocannabinol/Cannabidiol ratio arises in certain strains which can lead to a seriously unenjoyable high

without the antagonistic qualities of the later, THC can be overwhelming before it is metabolized, and can be more prone to inducing paranoia and anxiety*

Wow love this site!!!!! You are all so funny. ha ha ha step away from the plant.

yeh, funny guy huh , im on the floor

well here i am, almost 2 weeks later...

latest news is ive now got some amber on the lower half of the plant...

im hoping that by the end of the week i can start my flush, any opinions pls guys ?

id still go longer... another week. just me though and i am relatively inexperienced but thats my 2 cents

i would go longer aswell. she should swell up alot. what strain is it?

its a white widow, she starts week 11 tomorrow, im thinking i could start my flush at least ?

because otherwise by the time ive gone another week, and then flush for a week , she would have been in flower for 12 full weeks

Complete and utter cock And err, yeh ill start flushing soon !

LoL, err???? What the fuck does that mean?? Captain Jack Sparrow

chop that plant. and by the looks of the curly leaves your over watering her. let the medium dry completely before you chop as the plant will wick all the moisture out of the soil before its starts doing it to itself. dryer your soil, drier your plant. less moisture to evaporate during the cure

ill start flushing soon, im waiting for a bit more amber.
