its true...harvest your plant when the hairs are around 75% brown...usually the whole hair turns brown...some varieties may be different ...but everything ive ever grown...the whole hair turns

first the tips will turn brown, followed by the whole hair. they will shrivle up as the pod starts to swell. then some of the older hairs will fall out. this is now the best time to harvest imo.

i dont believe in that method. ive grown lots of plants and the only way u can really tell is by getting a loop. ive had plants where 90% of the hairs where brown and it still had another 3 weeks to go. ive also had plants where the hairs where still white but it was ready to be harvested

get a x30 mag glass and look at the tricomes and if there cloudy to amber it's ready.you can't tell by the pistels going brown outdoor's as cold temp's and bad weather can also turn the pistel's brown.
