Guys need input for the timing of my first harvest.
My questions is when you decide to harvest? Is it based on cloudy and or amber crystals at the top of the plant? middle of the plants? Or is it an average of tops and bottoms of the plants? I have 4 different types of plants and know when I would cut them but do not know if cloudy or amber reference is top of or middle of the plant (typically).
Thanks for any input :)
When the whole plant is 3/4 amber is ideal.:thumbsup::jointsmile:
Haha, I hope you are kidding.Quote:

I would look at the trichomes a little ways from the top and see what is going on. If it looks goo check out the lower sections. Don't hesitate to clip the top buds off and tan the bottom stuff a while longer if you want to.
Nope not kidding. I like a bang, one-two hitter style. Couch lock mostly when I smoke, and works wonders for when I eat it.....since 70% ingested gets wasted.....Quote:

I guess it's all about tritation..... I use too consume an oz. a day, 3/4 eat-1/4 smoke. Till I got busted in late 07' and the judge said as a matter of law I can't engage in medical use till my trial is over , this is now 2010 and my case is still ongoing.9.59 grams I am being charged with, a portion of a one day supply hahahaha......suffering this long really sucks though....the jury will see what crap they are pulling and back in the saddle I will be to go 3/4 AMBER again.
I consider this 30-40% amber...:jointsmile:...Home of Couchlock
Geez, I like to do things. That last shot looks way past prime to me.
To each their own I suppose.
I agree...:thumbsup:...it's several weeks from 5% to 40% amber...IMOQuote:

Goes back to the OP's question, but truthfully doesn't matter what others consider finished....know what you like for a strain's finish, and know what it looks like so you can repeat it! :D
Wowzers! 40 pct amber... I guess you do like couch lock :P I harvest at approximately 1 pct amber... keeps people active yet there's a nice wallop upside the head :hippy: The strain I'm growing now gets that way at about 64 days.
DP,
That's my kind of medicine, NICE JOB!!!:thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup::stoned:
Wow! Dutch went for the Eyeclops! :) (Great trichs, BTW:thumbsup:)
Here's some trippy-ass weed. 1% clear, 5% amber, 94% cloudy. Fasten seat belts....:eek:

On this page there's a series of shots of the same buds after UV exposure. Shows the trichs gradually browning up over a few weeks' time: http://boards.cannabis.com/games-arc...-chess-48.html
As always, appreciate the feedback from you guys, pics help give me an idea of light/medium/heavy. I am sure I will figure out on my own on next grow but this helps me a lot for my first harvest. :)Quote:

Got a few trich pics in my Icmag album.
You are welcome to download any of 'em and, with your own, it might be nice to start a trich thread with pics illustrating amber percentages.
Be a good sticky, yah?
Aloha Y'all
Weeze
