I agree with Rizzo00. Those smaller buds will swell and converge to become one big fat bud and the pistils will recede into the calyxes. It really sucks waiting, but at least you have some nice bud development.

This site is screwing up big time. Anyhow, so you think I have a few more weeks left then? I don't even see Rizzoo's comment. My last comment I posted didn't even post.

Ok, now I see the comment, what is wrong with this site.

Sometimes it does get kind of glitchy!?

Weird, I did not see your comment until just now...
I would give them a few weeks, I don't think they will be very potent if you harvest early. I harvested mine at about 75 days and I probably could have waited a week longer and gotten better bud. It was still pretty good though, I and all of my friends enjoyed smoking it.

This one looks ready, worried I will take it out too long i guess.

That bud still has some more swelling to do. You lose a LOT when you dry it, I know it's hard but it's worth it to wait until it is truly ready. You can pick off a smaller bottom bud and dry it out and test if you want, but it takes a two week cure for it to reach its potential.

Leave it alone. Dont mess with it for at least a week +.

Spend all this time growing and would hate to screw it up now, thanks to all for taking the time and help me with this.

So I was looking at the trichs and they are pretty shiney so I guess that would be clear. At 30x I have hard time making them out and telling what is cloudy and clear. They sparkle like diamonds and a saw this ooze in a bud which I guess is resin, otherwise somebody jacked off on my plant. At this point that will not prevent me from smoking any of it.

First...that is gross! Haha. Second if you are having a hard time distinguishing between cloudy and clear, wait until you see your first amber trichs on the calyxes and she will be ready. The amber trichs stand out with a scope. Oh and more amber = degrading so at first sign chop away.

I think I am seeing some amber trichs on them also, should I harvest soon?

You should get a 420 scope so you can be sure. I can clearly see the trichomes at 60x power with mine.

Thanks for advice midwest, just gonna give it another week or so than harvest. I have been told that I should make them out easy with a 30x and I already bought one of those. If I spend any more money on this hobby my wife will have my balls. She is already bitching about how the house smells.

Awesome! You can probably get more if you train them next time. Enjoy your smoke, you earned it.
