Harvest question........ Need help

Ok, looks like my pistils are just starting to turn orange on the upper most buds on the plant. And the lower buds havent really turned color yet.

Also the trichomes on the upper buds are for the most part amber, where the lower buds are still clear.

Should i harvest already? I just fed nutes on monday; its wednesday night right now? If i have to harvest should i flush tonight and harvest this weekend.

Thanks

No pics???? kinda hard to say with no pic.What are you growing in soil??I do hydro and i do a 10 day flush.

I tried to take pictures but my hps light makes all the hairs red. I dont want to move it to the other room cuz some of the branches are tied up cuz the buds are weighing them down, so moving it may snap the branches.

Im growing in soil.

okay here are some pictures, dont think you can see the hairs to much.

But like I said the larger buds on the upper branches are 50/50 amber trichomes, and the lower branches with the smaller buds are pretty much still clear trichomes.

So should I harvest? Flush tonight and harvest this weekend? I just added nutes on Monday; today is Wed. night

They still look like they need a week or two.

Calyxes don't look that swollen and the hairs don't look that orange redish color yet they still on the light side.

If you have the scope and you see 50/50 harvest them, but you can wait a week to flush...trust me if you havent use some black strap molasses or unsulphered....dude it makes such a difference in taste and smell flush atleast a week and you should be great to harvest on time.

Do yourself a favor and wait until at least 3/4 of the pistils have died back. The time to harvest is when the plant is ripe, not before. Sure it'll get you high if you harvest tomorrow, but the plant's full potential is not reached until it has completed it's life cycle. I'd say you got a good month yet. Just my two cents.

Thanks for all the help guys.

Hey bro its kind of hard to say exactly how long but Im going to estimate for maybe another month maybe less. How long have they been in flower?? Remeber all that white hair coming out still means NEW GROWTH so give it sometime.
