Some colas ready some are not

[Jdupree]

So I have some colas with white and amber trichomes. But the revegged parts do not. Is it cool to harvest the colas that look ready? I wont stress the rest of my plant right?

[Jarnkat]

Lots of people harvest that way

Interesting methodology for you to tread up on:

Phototron style of pruning for nowadays tent style indoor grow system

I bought a phototron back in the late 80’s and sent to Amsterdam for skunk#1 seeds. The real neat part of this project after smoking for 20 years was all that I learned about the plant. They had you trimming sun leaves off the plant when they got to be over 3 inches long. They had you do this as it allegedly makes the plant start another branch on the side away from where you cut the leaf off. I have never seen a better plant than this skunk both before or after i grew it. The trichlorines …

I have some colas with white and amber trichomes.

i have trouble seeing trich’s with anything less the 60x magnification,

some claim to use 20x and 30x, but all i see is ‘white’ trich’s.

get a pocket microscope, 60-100x, then u will know for sure.!!

[Jdupree]

It has 60x on it i love it

Thats the way I’m gonna do it cut them as they’re ready. Plus the buds that aren’t getting light will and IMO you will get more off the plants. I’m no pro it just seems to make sense. I may be wrong but I’m going for it.

[Jdupree]

Thats what i started doing i cut down some yesterday and the leftvers on the plant are getting way more light and doin good

[Dman1969]

@Jdupree it just makes good sense to me it’s more buds for your buck.

First time for me ever cutting buds in stages! It’s so awesome I will never harvest the whole plant again lol woooo
