Although you would need higher magnification to tell individual trichomes, they do appear to be pretty clear. But from what I read and hear about WW they do have a longer flowering period. I would just advise to keep an eye on those trichomes and once they all appear to be cloudy, it's time to harvest. Just go by the trichomes, they'll never let you down or lie.

Oh. By the way. Those plants are gorgeous, I hope everything works out.

The magnification looks fine. And they mostly look cloudy with a amber here or there imo. I would say its safe to start flushing in harvest in 10-14 days.

Yet once again:



Harvest when the trichome color will give you the high or stone or combination you like the most and do not pay attention to what other people like and tell you or to pistil colors or anything else.

I have never grown WW before, but by the looks of the picture I'd say maybe another week or so. I like to wait till about 10-30% amber trichomes. Your looking like 30% clear 70% milky(white). They should start to turn amber soon. Maybe harvest when you start seeing amber... More amber trichs means that more of your THC's are being broken down into CBN, CBD, and CBC. This changes the high a little from more of a clear head high to a heavy body stone. Um these are not absolutes, still being debated, but I hope it helps. =)

Trust me and the other guy with the pic of the trich chart.
DO NOT HARVEST YET!!!!
You are gonna need at least a week or two more. You HAVE to flush the plant before harvesting. My WW went 9 weeks from time of flowering.....not 9 weeks from light cycle change. Those are still way too clear. You might even need three weeks. Dont get impatient now....

Hey Hong, wait till you have all cloudy and a few amber starting to appear. Then it should be dank after cured 3-4 weeks!

Umm, I leave the plant alone since its so close to harvest. When you chop the plant down, then take all the leaves with res and make has of canna butter or what not. How about a new sig pic of you? Not too many hot asians with a cute little body posting on RIU! :)

As plants mature the larger lower leaves will wither and die, that is natural. Any withered leaves are of no help to your plants so there is no reason to not remove them. I do not quickly cut them off but will wait until they are about ready to drop off with the slightest touch and then remove them.

If you have enough leaf you can make hash or cannabutter or other things but if you do not have enough it is not worth the time and effort and expense. For fun and information you may enjoy watching the hash making video found using the link below.

Looking good! I would flush them now and keep watching the trichs.

Dont use fanleaves to make hash or butter. Only trim that has sugar on it.

I wouldnt use any fan leaves to make hash with. Only use the little leaves covered in crystals to make hash. The others, not covered in crystals, is useless in hash, or anything for that matter except compost.
