What makes you say that long? i was thinking tomorrow cause 8 weeks for an indica is good i think...looking under my microscope the trichomes are almost amber some actually are

i like to harvest at half amber. sometimes the upper buds are done first so harvest whats ready leaving whats not to fully ripen. that shit aint done yet wait atleast a week but more like 2

Agreed with chitown.... another 10-14 days and the hairs will recede and become part of the bud itself

Well guys the reason iam saying almost done is because almost all of the leave tips are curling and sying off and some of the leaves coming out of tghe buds are dying and i dont want the leaf that is in the middle of the bod to rot in the thickness... and i thought another week will be way to amber..some of the head are already bending and alot of heads are fallen off on some buds

Sounds like you don't want advise
as much as you want someone tell
you your plant is ready to be cut.

It looks ready, cut it tomorrow.

its yours do what you want ,


this plant is still growing bud ,your going to miss out on some weight

I agree. To early, and it wont be AS potent. I made that mistake of cutting to early before. I would give it about another week or two. If the strain is correct, it is not set in stone to harvest in exactly 8 weeks, just like floering is not 30 days nutes are exact, and so on. You have to adjust for your plants needs. Make sure it is flushed of nutes as well with strait water for at least a week or two!!!!!!

this is innacurate. also you should wait till most of the pistils recede into the bracts. they will swell and buds will fatten way more. only some pistils should remain.

those hairs are also still white!!!!! No way is that done i say 2-3 weeks no less!

No guys i love the advice and iam not going ot pull it,i just want to make sure iam doing the right thing i dont want to let it go and let it rot iam just nervous is all ill take the advice and let it go another week or 2 i just didnt want it to get all amber and its kinda hard to tell which is why iasked u guys keep commenting i appreciate it...so what about the dying leaves? the ones that are in the bud tht i cant pull and should i just keep using molasses till harvest? cause it isnt on anything right now

so and indica can go for 11 weeks? wow i didnt know that but iam taking the advice and leaving for a lil longer and also the leaves dying wont hurt the buds ?

here is my video of the plant this is here so you guys can get a way better more clear view on the buds http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YiMjqAY91RU

dude just let it go for a few more weeks its still growing good and will fill in more trics are not the only factor for harvest lot of the pist will recede into the buds and the seed brachs will look full plantz had a good link for a when to harvest thread gl

Those plant are not ready. Two weeks maybe more. They are just starting to put on the real weight, don't rush. I have flowered indicas for 11 weeks and it is always the last week worth it's weight in gold.

Thanks and can u post that link of plantz post for harvesting

Everyone is right. My plants are on 9 weeks and look like yours. I intend to wait 2-3 weeks minimum. But its yours do what youd like..

yes an indica can go however long it takes. The leaves dying means that the plant is sending the last of its life into the buds. Youve already put a lot of effort into it im sure, why not just be patient and let nature run its course.
