Take a look at these and tell me if you have any idea of how much damn longer!!! I looked at the trichromes under a mini scope and they are a little cloudy, some of them, but they are TINY. I dont think its ready yet, but my word, how much longer! Oh and the experienced growers: Any idea on how much yeild you think this is. There doesnt look like there is much, but I had to tie the branches up to support the wieght of the buds. Its dense.

I think you should wait another week or so

what light watts? might be low imo getting to low of lummes per/SQ ? Seems like you need to wait you Feeding em? get some p2o5 and some k2o (Phosphate and soluble Potash) helps buds ... if not to exped get like a bloom booster with a 5/5/5 .... Really Leafy i'd say wait and spefy what you doing all im doing is assumeing.:smokin:idk if hydro or durt atm ither your PPM could be all messed up? if you are feeding em and there not takeing in food could be water PH:smokin:

1 thing DECIDES the % of browned hairs :smokin: when there around 75-85% brown hairs the budding groth of the plant has slowed and the THC will be at her highest Personaly i do 80% brown hairs and shes best imo:smokin:

That's probably going to be a kick-ass smoke now. If indica inherently has a higher CBD to THC ratio, you could harvest it a little early for a well-balanced high...

Just my 2 cents, but if you've raised her this long, don't rush the finish and fuck up your quality. Let all the trichs go cloudy, then some amber. How many depends on how much of a body stone, of course.

Who first said 'when you decide it's time to harvest, wait another week'?

My guess would be two more weeks, but I'm not the one looking through your microscope.

And THEN give it a good 30 day cure...

Good luck!

i would agree but you go on the trichs colour about a 50 cloudy and 50 amber colour percentage will produce a good high
if you go by the hair colour you could end up harvesting early as some dificiencies affect the hair colour
cheers all

Yeah, buster is right, to be honest, the hairs mean nothing. It's the trichomes that tell you when THC and cannabinoid levels are at their optimum.

I have got some Shiva seeds and the pic's I looked at the flowers are white. What kind of shiva is this?? Always follow the trichomes. Mostly all cloudy with a few amber is prime. Once a trichome turn amber it is losing THC that turns into cannabanoids. They get you real stoned but the buzz doesn't last as long. So it's up to you what kind of buzz you want.
