Ready for Harvest? Trichome Pics

Hey all, i'm trying to decide if it's time to take my baby down. It's a white widow strain about 12 weeks into harvest. I used my camera and a jewelers glass for the trichome pics. Either it comes down tomorrow or i wait 1 week... What do you all think?

i see a few amber ones its up to you its smokeable for sure

12 wks its prob. done you can always let it cure a little longer if its not quite "couch lock" enough for u

Always wait the week. They will put a lot more weight on.

Yeah i think i'll probably wait, i need to prepare anyway so this will give me time to get my stuff together

i only saw a few amber trichomes in there if you want a more clear high then go ahead and chop it now but if you like the cough lock let it grow a week more...looks awesome either way

where is the update

Hey guys.. I'm a couple days after harvest and my wife's turning into a pro. She complains i"ve got a basement full of nugs, but she sure loves to cut and smoke that shit. I'm baked right now, but i'll send some harvest pics tomorrow....

Ok here are the pics.... Not as much as i wanted but it will keep me going till next harvest. I've got some AK-47 and bubblegum about 6 weeks into flowering and i will post some pics of those soon..

so have you reaped the rewards yet how is it? were you glad you waited the week? looks great good luck on your next harvest.

If u look closer there are to many clear so i see wait till 50% is fog white 50% is amber that is the best time.

The harvest went great and the buds are looking good. I'm getting ready to jar them shortly and the smoke is getting better by the day. It still isn't half as good as it will be once i get them in the jars and they get nice and stinky... Pretty clean high and it's just what i wanted so i can still function.. LOL

Alright so i'm trying to decide if i should cut the colas of my other 2 plants because they are almost ready but the underbuds haven't fully developed?

I've heard about reverting the plant back to the veg state and regrowing the plants.

I'm also thinking about setting up a scrog system with pvc and some rope. The reason being there are probably 50 bud sites on the lower part of the plant and i figure if i can turn those 50 sites into 50 colas, my yield will go up tremendously.

Let me know what you think or if you have any links of anyone else attempting to do the same. What are the pro's and con's?
