time to harvest?

[PimpMyKitteh]

I need to know if it's time to harvest. The white hair are 50-60% orange on top but more white further down due to not enough light hitting that area? No clue. Here are some pictures. Help!

Light needs to be distributed better. Tops are looking good. Lower buds are way behind.

Use a lupe to look at the tric's - about 20+% amber and it's time...

How about you harvest the one's that be done on top (when they are) and leave the lower one's on to finish - "progressive harvest".

NOTE: Most strains take a week or two longer then breeders reports say they do!

I could only harvest half of it?? That fixes things

It doesn't fix shit, early harvested weed gets you anxious.
Harvest when 80%-90% of pistils are orange/brown.

Go by the trichs.
Go by the trichs on the buds, not leaves.
Amber is not useful, yu want as much milky as possible with a little clear/amber. All milky if possible.

They dont look ready. Harvest to soon and yu'll b sad. I accidently harvest my plants 2 weeks early. Trichomes were gettin amber so i cut.. But i thought i was 2 weeks further into flower..
Im sad.

Lots of people make that mistake, took my White Widow 2 weeks longer to flower, since dutch seedbanks count flowering time from the first appearance of flowers and not from the time you flip to 12/12.

Yes! When it's ready just do the cola's that are ready and leave the rest "on" the plant to finish!
