its currently 1 month into autumn, i sowed the seed too late but it still looks alright. Just wondering what u guys think, has been stressed out a fair bit because its been transplated twice and i accidently took out a few bottom roots when i transplanted, when do you guys think its ready for chop i dont have a magnifying glass but i took some good photos, any advise would be greatly appreciated thanks PS i have also cut about 4-5 stems from bottom to smoke about 2 weeks ago it was a relaxing head high not quite that potent yet.

I wouldn't harvest that.
Give it more time, and the buds will swell up probably twice the size.
It'll definitely bring up the potency too. Don't harvest until the leaves start to fall off and change color.
Harvesting early robs you of weight, and a good buzz.

noo she still has a long way to go i would give her at the very least 4 more weeks

also i would tie her down about half way up so those lower buds get more sunlight

IMO The calyxes will swell a lot more before the plants are done. You still have white/creamy hairs and no amber in trichromes(looks like). I have always know maturity by the color of trichromes through a magnifier (30x) minimum recommended. Using a magnifier also helps with early on detection of bugs etc. Hope this helps! Happy smoking. :leaf:

Yep tri to comb it...lmao...ya wait till the trichomes are milky or about 30% amber, and a good jewelers loop will help...about 10 bucks...

EDIT: Mostly milky trichomes w/no amber gives a good head high that's energetic, 30% amber trichomes will make you want to veg on the couch, with whole body high...good luck.

Don't stress that unless you want to wait longer for harvest...if you wanted to LST it you should have done it in veg state...

you took 4-5 stems from the bottom of the plant and smoked them? So....not only did you cut a budding plant and stress it out, but you did it to smoke stems? Now I officially think I've heard everything

I'm sure he meant he cut the lower braces with bud on it. And I'm sure you're not so dumb that you didn't understand that as well.
