Hello all, I was about a week away from havesting my first grow, but i had some watering problems. I am home for winter break so I have been asking my roommates to fill up my water resevior while iv been gone every week or so. Well for the last two weeks now, someone has forgot to fill it up and only remembered to do it after i reminded them a day or two late. When naturally this has stressed the plants and from what my friends told me they leaves look brown and dried up.

Now I am going down tomorrow night because that would be the end of the 8th week of flowering and i wanted to harvest but i am worried that the buds will be underdeveloped and not be worth anything. Should I give them another week or two to continue budding or is it too late for them to get better and i should just harvest them anyway?

The trichomes will tell you if it's time to harvest...otherwise, you will be shooting blanks...:smokin:

just because they missed some waterings near the end of flowering shouldnt mean the bud is ruined...also near the end of a plants life lots of different strains start to yellow and their leaves die off as the plant realizes its flowers are almost fully mature and its end is near.
