These photoperiod plants are coming to the end of week 9 floweing since switching to 12-12 light cycle. This is my 3rd grow and I never have come across bud rot. I have a de-humidifier inisde the tent and the humidity is always 40% or less. Also I cant tell if these plants are ready to be harvested. I see quite a bit of amber hairs, but also see a lot of white hairs. Should I let these plants continue flowering longer?

I appreciate you letting me know that. I never knew plants could flower past 8 weeks. I'm just scared I'll harvest too soon or too late.
It's far far far easier to harvest too early than to harvest too late. Take a look at this, it's a perfect example of harvested 3-4+ weeks too early.

Hello. I concur with the others, and your plants need at least 3 weeks before you consider harvesting. Generally, when the pistols recede and the buds look like they are carrying seeds, the plant is ready. Also, google bud rot and get accustomed to the appearance, because it will devastate your crop if you don’t remove it.

Appreciate that! I stopped feeding with nutrietns a week ago because I thought it was close to harvest. Not sure if I should start giving it to them again because if I'm not mistaken you need a week or two of no nurtiemts before harvest.

Light bleach. Lights are too close or too intense, the low RH might be a contributing factor. The only issue is that the bleached parts don't have any thc. Otherwise you're good.
