Anyways I thought this week they would be ready to chop but now I'm thinking one more maybe two weeks. What do you think? I wanted to do a gradual harvest and take the top buds then give the bottoms an extra week. I'm going to try to get some better pics up here if there are any specifics you would like to see I can try to get different shots.
ello there chrissy.. wow i must say your babys put mine to shame.. they look amazing.. erm well if i was you i would get a 30x jewlers loop and check the trichomes like that.. then you can be sure to harvest right...but ye that sounds good taking the tops first and letting the bottoms fattern up some.. i do it myself.. if you cant get hold of a jewlers loop.. i would surgest harvesting the tops at 8weeks then leave the bottoms another week.. but thats just me.. most strains indica dominant finish around 8weeks.. i allso find that more often then not the plants will take like 7-10days more then the recemended harvest window by the breeder.. but then again i like more of a heavy stone so i like to wait a bit.. anyways whatever you end up donig.. best of luck with the rest of your grow.. and have a happy harvest... get them trimming fingers ready
pps.. props for your wicked pics.. very frosty stuff.. damn im felling cold hahaha:rasta:
