hi just a few questions about when i should harvest my girl. I have already taken a small bud of her and had a sneaky smoke and was that stoned i couldnt move but the hair's are only 50/50 in colour and i was wondering if it was ok to cut her down,she's 'bout half way through her last week of flowering. Also do you have to give the plant 48 hrs darkness b4 you cut it down can anyone help

if you liked the high, chop her. as far as the 24 of dark before harvest im not too sure. Chop her on a day you would normally water.


pics?

i'm assuming you're 7 1/2 weeks into flowering...i would wait another 2 weeks or so, when the pistils are receding back into the bud. Remember patience is rewarded...pics would be nice though

if you like the high, chop her. thats the deal maker. if you wait the high may not be what you want, unless it already isnt.

it very well could be true. and it could be b.s. everything i've read says take a sample and if you enjoy you're high, harvest. its really a matter of personal op. everyone has a different one. you could do a mini harvest and then harvest the rest after the 1.5 weeks.

I believe you want to go for the overall package. Strain/age of the bud, color of hairs, how far they have receded back into the bud, and trichome color. If you don't have a microscope, you can grab a cheap handheld one from RadioShack for twelve bucks.:peace:

That I'm not sure on, but wanted to tell you, you can order the same thing from RadioShack's online store, as well.
