Medmaker. If you are just waiting for someone to say what you want to hear then why bother asking. You're going to do whatever you plan either way. Everyone who gave you advice to the contrary seem to have more experience then the above poster...
I knew for a fact they were wrong... I was looking for somebody with even MORE experience then them, but never got anyone. I know how THC works and trichome development works, I don't however know much about hermies. They weren't answering my questions about when to harvest, but rather being dicks about the fact that my only medicinal plant that made it was a hermy and all my outdoor plants were ravaged by a random herd of demonic deer.... Saw about 10 sets of tracks.
I am disabled and have spent years learning about this stuff to know the THC doesn't get used up making seeds.. It just slows production of the trichomes and female buds and nobody here even listened to the fact that I am making oil with it anyway. I wanted to know when the ideal time to harvest for BHO based on trichomes or any other intelligent reason OTHER THAN "start over" or "ur fukt". You can make BHO oil with damn male plants so how is anyone here correct in telling me to throw away my plant and that it is worthless when it also has actual female buds and lots of trichomes. When you are sick and spend months making something you don't just give up, you gotta salvage what you can if you don't wanna be in pain for another few weeks.
People confuse amount of posts with experience are probably lacking experience. I have read your posts Dank and can see that you know more about Marijuana and THC than most of these posters who have even 1-3k posts... that should be proof enough to you.
