On most plants the bud tips will be ripe at the same time and can be taken leaving the inner buds nearer the stalk to ripen in 5 to 10 days it all depends on how much light there is if outside and how much green foliage is left on the plant so it can finish. Watch the trichs to see when to take them.....clear = up, cloudy = mellow, amber = couch lock........
lipps Reviewed by lipps on . conflicting opinions on staggered harvesting? I am hearing it's good to cut up to 1/3rd of the plant and dry it as opposed to harvesting the whole plant in one go. This allows for different types of highs ranging from more mellowed, to more active ones. Is this true? Will i not be damaging the other flowers' growth by cutting down a big cola or two? Is it a good idea to cut down 2 colas, wait 3 days, cut down another 2 colas then 3 more days and harvest the whole plant? too much stress? thoughts and opinions please! anyone Rating: 5
