Began my cut Hubbabubbasmelloscope

Began taking down my Mephisto Hubbabubbasmelloscope today. It was beginning week 15. All the sugar leaves were turning yellow and drying up as the plant was drawing upon its own nutrients. Trichs were a 50/50 mix of clear and cloudy, but very few amber. But given the way the sugar leaves were going, I figured it was time.

Took down about 40% of the plant, wet trimmed the buds through my bowl trimmer. This is an average bud.

Bud looks good to me. Congratulations. My buds are mostly cloudy with also no amber.

Thanks. I just couldn't wait for them to turn amber anymore. The sugar leaves were all dried and withering. Basically using up all the nutrients they had stored.

Bud are loaded with trichromes, 50/50 clear and cloudy. I'll try and finish the rest of the plant either tonight or tomorrow.

Beautiful looking buds, how long are you into flower? Lots of cloudy trichs. Have you considered adding bloom boosters the last weeks of flower?

Thank you @Beard-o . Not planning any boosters at this point. I'm just letting em ride & hoping for the best. Actually dreading the drying process as I have no place to dry under 76 degrees (inside AC temp in house). Hoping it will cool off but calling for 95* today. Next grow i plan to have a dedicated grow room with its own AC system. In the desert of Arizona it's HOT.
