I usually wait till the hairs change color about 3/4 of the way down the branch. 40 days is just the end of week six, this is usually when the flowers really start to explode, look to harvest around week 7-8

Get a microscope and check the trichomes, when they are all milky you can cut and get less bud that gives more of a head high, if you wait till they all amber and the plants finished you will get more(buds put on most of their weight the last 2 weeks) couchlock buzz giving bud. if you harvest 50/50 between milky and cloudy you'll get a more mixed result. that plant has a long time left, at least 6 weeks.

You don't need a scope to see that this plant isn't even close to being ready.

Man, you've got weeks to go.

If 75% of the hairs turn coulour this normaly means that your cropped is cooked perfect.But i would also check the thc glands to see if there the same coulour has larger.But it is well worth the wait you need to get this has near to perfect has possible.
