Experiment with Holy Grail Clone - Outdoor

I am a total noob at growing marijuana but my philosophy isn't about money or the yield its about quality meds for me at this point. I have one plant who looks very nice and healthy to me and the buds looks very nice and resiny. But i'm still very new and have a question or two.

Anyhow I've been growing one plant, Holy Grail Kush, since July and the way i saw it was if it came out fine outdoor then i shall do it again the next year with more than one plant the next time around.

i am just having trouble figuring out when the right time for these babies to be cut and dried.

i have a few photos of them here, any help would be greatly appreciated.

Nice plants but they don't look ready to harvest. Give them at least till the end of the month.

You can go by the conditions of the bud hairs or the color of the trichomes. If you go by the hairs, I'd wait until at least half of them have turned red or brown. If you get a magnifier lens and look at the trichomes, harvest when they have turned cloudy rather than transparent. It must be autumn because that question is being asked a lot.

thanks a bunch!

also keep them in the sun!! not the shade!!

thanks, i did that because only one side of the plant was flowering. the other side was a little late.

heres an update. looks like one side of the Holy Grail is still ahead in the flowering process. but the buds are coming along nicely. i have everything ready to dry and cure hopefully i'll turn up some good meds

but does anyone have any other good advice about the current state of this plant?
