Hi Hi,
I am on my first grow, and I have never harvested, so, take my words with all the grains of salt.
I believe people harvest based on color of the pistils and cloudiness of the trichomes. And depending on what percentage the hairs are red and brown, and how cloudy or amber the trichomes are, thats when you harvest. Robert has an article on it Harvesting Marijuana: Our Guide to The Perfect Harvest!
I also believe these facts can only be observed under some sort of zoom, with assistance from Jewelers Loupe or other magnification device (details in the article), so I don’t think the pics above will be able to help us identify if its time. If you can take a pic though a magnification device like the ones in the article, that would be ideal.
Sorry if I was un-helpful. Your plants look crazy awesome though.
@Swan1234 yes your correct they are falling off and dying due to nearing harvest, the yellow falling leaves are because your ladies are using up the rest of what nutrients they have left in their system enable telling her she is near the end of her season and about finished
Thanks for your comment man, even if you comment something that I already know or have done I’m still gonna aprecciate you taking your time to try and help cheers good luck on your grows @TimTheEnchanter
I feed her nutes full strength just big bloom and tiger bloom yesterday cause I see little amber and didn’t know if they would survive long enough to turn amber. Did I do the right thing @Majiktoker
If you really want us to help you @Swan1234 then please take a pic in white or natural light. I can see what appears to be amber trichomes but with that led glow it’s hard to tell anything.
I harvested half of my first plant and man is trimming tedious it was ok on the first cola and then began to be more like a chore but I pushed through with the thought of finger hash
Ok guys here’s my total off two blue berry autos from ILGM( thanks to this site and business I was able to grow my own weed) I haven’t weighted them yet but those are quart size jars(wide-mouth) I’ve read they hold about an once in each. So I’m guessing I got 2.5 ounces off of nice dense solid bud.
