When to harvest CBD rich strains please

[Labs Dexter]

It's confusing because one guy says thc degrade first then cbn takes over.
So the questions are all you medical growers... When do you harvest to get nerve pain relief?

CBD levels will peak BEFORE THC levels do...

So you want to harvest CBD strains maybe even a few days early. You're not looking for a 'couch lock' high, you're looking for CBD.

Amber trichomes are degraded to CBN, not CBD.

How sure are you on that because it sounds like you want me to chop early lol

I'm pretty sure that CBD begins to degrade earlier than THC

Thanks for you input buddy no disrespect or anything but Pritty sure won't do it for me mate lol.
I'll go with 70 amber untill I get more heads commenting.
Because I was sure untill I did some more reading and it's a head banging topic to read. I would like someone who grows CBD strains to input better.... But I think iv shit out lol. Thanks again for your information

Go for it, just remember than an amber trichome is one that's degraded

CBD levels in strains like Harlequin peak at week 8 while THC levels peak at week 10

 

[innerG]

Harlequin is a fabulously frosty, clone-only strain that flowers quickly and requires about 60 to 70 days to finish indoors. Unlike most strains, an extended flowering time for Harlequin can actually diminish its effectiveness, because CBD degrades earlier than THC. Thus Harlequin generally tests at around 7% CBD at 10 weeks indoors while at 8 weeks, it can deliver CBD levels as high as 11.9%.

Fuck me so I don't wanna chop now lmao this lady's flower are not even nearly there lol.
Thanks for that matey
and I hope I didn't offend you I just want the Painkiller to do what it says on the pack

No worries, each strain will be different and all these CBD strains are new.

You could always harvest half at 8 and half at 10 and see which does the job better.

More amber trichs will be more couchlock-y, but may have less CBD. The actual CBD doesn't get you high at all, so the bud that feels less potent may have more CBD content of you were to test them chemically

I know its not ment to get you stoned.
But when I read about Painkiller by underground it's a mix of sativa and indica and supposedly narcotic effect soo I really hope so.
And I will do what you said some early and the rest later on... It should be good because I got another one ready to go in and it's vegd longer lol.
