Your plant has fully white hairs...Wait until 75% of the white hairs to turn brown, that is the time to harvest :D

Im not sure if your aware of trichromes(a lot of info at og.com), but most growers check them for harvest times. a cheap 30x magnifier will help you determine harvest time and is simple to do and a very accurate way to determine ripeness. the trich colors will also help you with the kind of high you want to get from your bud. look at overgrow for more info.

Few questions, how long has it been in 12/12? how old is the plant all together (veg and flower) and how often are you fertilizing?

I can see your concern those fan leaves off the bud are pretty curly.. is it possible you're over fertilizing?

you might be right on the over fertilizing. I use miricle grow every other watering can and water about every 3 days or so. I just went out and got a bud inhancer (0.13.14) that says to use once and then nothing for 3 weeks. I am not sure if i have 3 weeks left. As for the age of the plant i am not sure when i started it but i did leave it veging to long.

Check by trichome, when it is 50/50 cloudy/amber it is harvest time for an all around high, all amber is plain couch lock, all cloudy is upper, and clear is less effective.
note that the high still veries by strain not just by harvest time

BLAAARGGG!!!!

Do you people never listen?!

Miracle Gro is the WORST fertilizer to use, it's cheap and inefficient. For the love of your plants pick up something betters.. Schultz, Scotts.. whatever.. NOT Miracle Gro.

I seriously suggest a flush for a week with nothing but water then.. if it shows signs of improvment, use a higher grade fertilizer...

Use cheap fertilizer, get cheap results
