Is it ready to harvest?

[StuffedOrange]

Hello everyone,
This plant has been flowering for exactly 33 days. Which means that it is mid way of week 5 of flowering. I have vegged this plant for 2 months. Most of the hairs are orange and it is flooded with trichomes as you can see from the pictures.

Should I harvest it as It looks like its done to me. The buds are no longer swelling. The trichomes are cloudy as well.

I'm growing using Organic BioBizz Nutrients in Coco perlite. Could this be the reason why it is finishing up so early?

5 weeks, doubt it. Order a cheap 60x trich reader off amazon and check the trichs in a couple days when the microscope comes in.

Them look nice.

We need closer bud pics to see whats happening

Usually plants need about another 2 weeks once the hairs receed. The buds stop growing bigger on the outside, and they swell internally making them heavier and usually denser. This is also when the plant finishes ripening.

Looking at the trichomes at this point can help pin point the maturity. For peak potancy you want your trichomes cloudyish white.

I have cut off a small sample 2 days ago, and dried it quickly and the high was really potent!

Believe it or not, this is just some bagseed xD I have no clue what the strain is but it is a hybrid, and it has 3 fingers per a leaf

Looks almost done maybe week or two as said which hits you a normal strain time for the fastest breeds.

But yer thats quick and she does initially look close.

This is what I like to use to hell determine when is the best time to harvest

Nice looking buds, and do look close.

I would wait a couple wks. But also curious about your timeframe. It's been 33 day since you noticed flowers or since changing to 12/12?

 

[xtsho]

A couple weeks. The wait will be worth it.

How are you looking at the trichomes? I like the high at about 50/50 clear cloudy

Nice trichome picture C2G!

Thank you! I was trying to illustrate that you can't really estimate with the naked eye. If you enjoy trichome photos looks at @Hawoodrose 's work. He has a thread in TnT

My point was you need loupes or a handheld scope to actually see them Anyway he can't go wrong now even if he chops early.

33 days since i have switched to 12/12, I have noticed flowers weeks ago before I flipped to 12/12. As I have said that I vegged for 2 months before flowering!

Wowzers 33 days from 12/12 to that level of maturity is real fast. Do you know what strain it is?

I still say roughly 2 more weeks for properly ripened bud though.
