Hi guys, I have to go away next Monday for 5 days, my problem is I think my plant will be ready when I'm away, most of the trichs are cloudy but there's no amber yet, the buds underneath seem more ready than the mian bud at the top, should I just cut her down or wait till I come back? Or will it possibly be too late? First grow so don't really wanna fk it up! Help please thanks

I would wait and check the trichomes on monday and make a decision then, you can always leave the plants sit in the dark while your away and it wont hurt a thing (I give mine at least 72 hours of darkness before chopping) as long as you have plenty of air movement around the plants (dont want any mold/mildew). Monday if they still arent where you want them, let them go 5 days and shut it down when you get back, 5 days wont make a huge difference either way...... but your better letting them go, then choppping to early. I also like to let mine starve for water the last few days/week, as it makes drying and trimming a bit easier so no need to worry about watering when your gone (assuming this is a soil grow). Good Luck
