Hey there,

I am ready to harvest. I should have harvested early this morning but only just checked my plants and weather late morning...

So basically. Had a bit of light rain last couple of days, on and off. Rain is due back tomorrow or this evening for an estimated 10days ...

So basically, its overcast and preparing to rain in id say 3-6 hours. Do I harvest right now (mid-day-early evening)? or wait until a dry early morning (potentially 10+ days away)?

I live in New Zealand and daylight hours are now at 11hours of sun - 13hours of dark. I understand morning harvest is the best but is it worth waiting those potential 10days?

Throughout the ten days the highest temp is 23degs and lowest being 8deg.

cheers.

If there is no freezing/frosty conditions in the forecast, then technically you can wait.
If your buds are very large+dense and your scared of mold; You could go ahead and harvest.
Mostly up to you, I've always left them out until the day before first frost. Rain or Shine

You're ready to harvest and you want to know if you should subject your nice fat buds to 10 days of rain???

Half way though the dark cycle is what people refer to as the best time to harvest but it's debatable if it really makes any difference.

To even run the risk of bud rot to be able to follow that exact timing of the harvest model is insane. If you are ready to harvest and it's going to rain for 10 days get those plants harvested immediately. If you ever deal with bud rot you'll know where I'm coming from.

ADDED SOME PHOTOS.

Couldn't really capture the tri's with my digi camera, but these are the best I could get.

I haven't seen my plants change in maybe a month? 12/12 officially ended around that time...

Im not sure if they didn't grow because of lack of sunlight or because they were ready. So I left them. Heard of other people who had harvested around a month ago (in the same area). and others just telling me to wait until first frost...

Excuse the stoned ant... :eyesmoke:
