You have a 5-7 days window to cut em at their highest potency. To tell when they're readying u need a 30x magnifying glass (a jeweler's magnifying glass is perfect). What ur looking at r the trichomes (resin glands / thc). They look kind of like litte mushrooms, a stem with a lil ball or cap at the end. When they first start to form they will be clear, almost see though, then they will turn a milky tint. From there, they'll turn an amberish color, when that happens, they are at top potency, cut em! When ur checking the trichomes, u need to make sure u check all over the plant, some areas will be ready before others. Use ur judgement, when the majority of the trichomes are amber, cut her down! Research how to dry and cure, it's the most important part!I have a ? after they start blooming when are they ready to come down?? I have a few in my yard and they are big and sticky can i leave them for too long or what
If u cut em down after the 5-7 day window, the potency will lower as time passes.
Good luck!
