Hey everyone. This is my first grow, I have a few concerns that I was hoping some people here could help me with.
About 2 weeks ago the fan leaves on my plant started to turn yellow...and eventually turned brown sometimes at the tips and sometimes in spots, dried up and fell off. It seemed to start from the bottom, and seems to be working its way up and now most of my fan leaves are yellowing and starting to turn brown, dry up and then fall off when barely touched. I was told that sometimes this is normal when the plant is in its later stages of its life cycle, which mine is... I know my plant is a few weeks away from being ready to harvest because about 1/3 of the pistils have turned amber. My question is this, does this sound normal to you veteran growers or should I be alarmed??
I was told that I should harvest when about 70-80% of the pistils have turned amber... Is that correct?? I don't have a microscope to view the trichomes but I would like to know whens to best time to harvest.
Thanks in advance to anyone who can offer a little friendly advice
