Ready to harvest?

This is my first post. Hello there, she's been budding for about 8 weeks. Is she ready? Any advise would be very helpful, next steps, and what leaves if any should I remove before drying. Thank you.

This is my first season, but it looks like your nugs could grow more. That's looking f'n amazing though. If I had yields that big I'd get a good loop and inspect trichs. I've read a lot of big plants they take the top colas and let the lower buds fill out more for a week or two.

Aren't his plants screaming for more phosphorus with those purple leaves. That is if he continues to wait to harvest.

Purple is usually an environmental thing.

But cannabis will show there colors toward the end of flower and sometimes even throughout the entire grow. Genetics

Beautiful plant, what strain is that? I ask because I’ve got some crazy purpling too. I’m about 3 weeks from finishing. Posted about it. I’ve heard, strain genetics, cooler temps, and possible phosphorus lockout. The responses eased my mind. Your buds looking great, but what I’ve also learned on this forum is how the bud ripens up. And from that first pic there still lots of white pistils. I was told 4-5 weeks when my bud looked like that. This is a couple weeks later and I still think 3 weeks.

Bro your close.

This plants a good example, It’s pistils have turned orange, and the flowers calyaxs are starting to peak out and swell. 10-14 days left. Then you’ll notice the pistils go dark brown. Set window. Chop.

love this pic. Good example. This is when a lot of growers make the mistake and harvest when they still had 2-3 weeks left because they look like the pic above.

Appreciate that. But I give the credit to the forum. Lots of great advise on posts I’ve made. Without it I’d be harvesting today. Lol. Coming this far, I want the best quality and have learned from the reply’s patience is definitely a virtue. I’ll wait my few more weeks.

The thing is, it's an outdoor grow. You will need to inspect every day for bud rot if you're not already doing so.

I’ve also learned a lot here on RIU.

Mold scares the shit out of me. 6 plants outdoor, anywhere from a couple to 5 weeks yet on harvest between the 6. So far so good. I imagine in a few weeks it’s going to start keeping me up at night. Lol
