Since you mention it, please post some pics of your plants. I tried searching, but didn't find any. Perhaps there's a thread I missed? Regardless, I'm looking forward to seeing what it is that you're harvesting. Fair is fair. Thanks!

While this couldn't be any funnier, the other day I was into this thread and the topic was why these beautiful plants produce THC in the first place, and this idiot kept posting that it does this to catch the pollen citing that it must be for that because trichomes are so sticky so that must be what its for, then he reposts it like it is so obviously fact to him hahaha, what a dummie. I had hermies and ended up with a couple of seeds here and there in which I've picked them out and/or just cut the entire bud if it was eaten up by seeds. The sticky quality of the trics are resins being secreated out, if you have ever seen a pollen sack explode then you know that it doesn't take much before its invisible and swirling around in your room trying to find a pistol. Personally I feel the resin/THC/cannabinoid production is for protection, sending any animal who snacks on it into an interestingly horrible day in the animal kingdom. Although if any of you have ever seen those African animals eating fermented fruit and they all start partying and passing out, this could recreational to animals and we are ruining thier fun

The psychoactive properties of the strain, itself, are more of a determinate than the shading of the trichs, all thing being equal. Personally, I harvest when most are cloudy, when their heads are "full" (a subjective, relative observation) and when the flowers look done (another subjective, relative observation).
This is the only way know if product is actually curing:

By flowers, is that also known as the calyxes? and by being done, do you mean swollen appearance, a little bit of white at the base of the hairs, and before the hairs turn dark brown and kind of dried up shribble looking? Also obviously assessing the following as well as trichome color and fullness, I should be able to hit that 6-8day window of 100%ripeness. If you can elaborate on what they mean by swollen though? I have noticed that in the last 5 days they, extensions of the top buds, almost a flower shape, have been growing out and up from the top bud, as the buds are gaining weight pretty fast, all the other parts of the bud getting 'filled' out as well, so is this what they mean by swollen? Also I am at about week 10-11 flowering and my buds have been showing the previous signs I described plus the trichs are mostly cloudy white, and no amber so far that I can see with a 40x lens, question is does the trichomes age a bit after you harvest during drying or water curing?
when they swell and the hairs recede, , cloudy white with alittle amber is a good time to harvest.
I dont think they age after harvest, But i dont know for sure

I too am from Michigan and have been to alot of compassion clubs all around the state. I go to check and see what is out there and I always get their " best " medicine. It all sucks. Just cause you paid $375 an ounce doesn't mean it is good. Those compassion clubs are filled with crap from dumbass growers that shouldn't be growing a lawn. Oh, and I love all the names that are out there, it is simply foolish. Every home grower who gets a seed from a plant thinks they have a new strain and can name it something off the wall and tell people how good it is. And yes, a good cure is most important for a good smoke.

Do you think the plants die immediately after you cut them down? Yes of course the trics mature after you cut them down, a simple way is to use your microscope and check yourself before trying to tell people otherwise. Also if you harvest at amber it's too late, by the time they're dried and cured they'll almost all be amber and you'll never know what that strain was actually supposed to be like cos you'll have lost 95% of your THC.
You even finished that first grow yet? Still no pics months after the flushing thread...Im still not believing your story until we see those pics...

Seems to me like all you do on this forum is talk down to people; try to belittle people; claim that you are an expert in everything when you only started growing a year ago; and generally just try and start shit. Plus seems funny how you always show up in the same threads as SimonD and it's always the same thing; you two jumping down someones throat and screaming you wanna see pics. It's a shame you haven't learned to have a civilized conversation yet. I'm sure you'll make up some story about me and curse me out as well but I don't care because I rarely come to this sub forum and I could care less what you think of me.
