I have 3 different strains growing and they pretty much uniform in their appearance concerning the trichomes. I have more or less 30% clear, 50% cloudy and 20% amber. I keep reading about harvesting when we have a full moon which is now. My gut feeling is to hold out a couple more weeks, so does the full moon theory have any validity when it comes to cannabis?
Forget the moon....follow the trichs....:thumbsup:
The full moon just makes it easier for you to see at night when you are running around the woods with a trash bag, lol! :D
Bio-dynamic farming is a method of farming that incorporates the cycles of the moon and other natural cycles of nature...
I pulled one of mine yesterday...it was peaking and the full moon is out...but others weren't ready....so maybe it was a kowinkidink.
nature vs sceince or natural sceince or the nature of sceince or

why not take a bud or two off, try to do a couple day quick dry, it should be smokeable, but not likely to be at its' peak. maybe that'll satisfy your cravings, because there are many many of us in the same boat, day by day, mid-october is the time!
^^actually, I still have some NL X Blueberry from last year's crop. What I meant is that my anxiety is high around this time of the season. Thanks for the suggestion, though.
well first off its not the full moon that they say to harvest on its the "NEW MOON".
we just had the full harvest moon and now it will start waning
they say to harvest during the waning moon as near to the new moon as possible (the new moon is oct 11th)
if the trich's look good by the 11th i would harvest then.
If they are 20% amber should it not be basically ready? Dont want it to go over ripe...
Germinate seeds during the "dark of the moon"....(folk lore, new moon)
Image reaper,
I just checked other bud sites and now they seem to be more on the cloudy side with about 20% amber and clear trics combined. I'll just keep checking them every couple of days, but I think they should be ready soon.
Fatsackville-thanks for the info regarding the new moon.
