How close to harvest?

[HandyGringo]

According to Seedfinder, I should be close to harvest in my climate. But based on my eye, I'm like a month from harvest.

I have a thrips issue, so I don't know if I can wait a month with harvesting, also it's cold and rainy and windy and.. moist. So, open to opinions!

(It's a Frisian Duck and a Frisian Dew, outdoors, in soil, fed with organic Biobizz, bonemeal, worm castings, etc)

Yea those have a bit more time. Are you seeing any mold, budrot or powdery mildew?

Sometimes the "finish date" when growing outdoors is just when you're cutting out moldy buds to let the plant go as long as possible. Once you have had enough of throwing buds in the trash, it's time to take the whole plant down.

I have not, both strains are supposed to be very resistant, so I hope that's true. I will keep it going then and keep my eyes peeled. Thanks for the info

Inspect them every day and when it shows up, it's time to make decisions on when to chop. Definitely try to keep them going 2+ weeks, it will be worth it.

The ducks got longer to go by looks of it lots of white pistols n still to swell the other should swell too but it's more along the way I think looking at it as they said though keep an eye on em fingers crossed you can get em nice and ripe weather permitting
