You think it’s ready? A friend and fellow grower told me to wait a few more days but I want the best high possible. I’m kind of confused lol

Lets see a pic of the plant. A pic of trichomes means nothing.

Beautiful grow. I'd say you're almost there. What do you think @Indacouch.

Thanks man. I got some taller than a 1 gallon milk jug. I just want to make sure I harvest at the right time. It’s my second grow.

The plant doesn't all ripen at once. I'm sure you can see buds on the bottom that need more time. So if you're anxious you could cut a bud and start the dry/cure on it first just to see the difference.
I'm not sold on the whole amber mentality. Amber = degradation. Milky is better imo.

The very bottom has some that aren’t fully developed. They are so small I’ll prolly just cut em off. I’m at 9 weeks and a day so they should be about done. It said 56 and I had planned on taking them to 70 but the whole plant damn near looks ready to me but it’s only my second grow so All I know is what I’ve learned from the first time and what people say.
My first grow was bag seeds and looked decent but after cure it sucked.

Nice work and kudos to you for being patient. I'd say your harvest window is just now opening. I like to see the hairs receded in like that. I wouldn't be mad if you chopped within the next 7 days or so. I don't see much new growth popping in and I can tell by the way they look your definitely there.
Congrats on your work dude.

Couch lock and going to sleep are pretty hard to separate. If you don't want a real sleepy kinda high you should chop when things are milky and not a lot of amber. Strain had a lot to do with effects.....but you can somewhat vary the high by chopping at different times.
As far as stressing them or doing anything like that ....I have tried everything you could think of through the years....best thing to do is just keep things the way they are and just be giving water at normal schedule.....no nutes.
