So I have some milky/amber tricomes. Mostly milky with a few amber/redish brown ones here and there. However the mass majority of my fan leaves are still alive. I red a thread by Muddy stating wait until fan leaves fall off and the bud leaves die until harvest. Do these girls look ready??? These are the runts I am interested in harvesting. First 3 pics are my Purple Jems. Last few are of Pakistan Ryder, the WOS seeds says PKR is ready is 55days yet I still have living fan leaves. These girls will be 8 weeks old Saturday. LAY IT ON ME BROTHERS!

Usually that's a sign of it being close or ready for harvest, you could let it go and other week if you're looking for a couchlock stone. Doesn't matter wether the fan leaves die or not, that's not the sign of harvest ready. the trichs will tell you when.

You want about 85% milky trichs. Bout 10% amber. 5% clear. Trichs will continue to turn even after chopping. While it dries the little clear will turn cloudy. Comes out perfect every time i do it.

I say leave them for another week, then crop then. Looking good tho!! Will be some nice smoke. Dont wait for the fan leaves to die, some do, some dont. Another week will be perfect

DT got it right. Harvest by watching the tri's. You are confused because usually yellow fan leaves
are in abundance before most strains show the tri's are done. Just because the fans are slow
doesn't mean you should wait.

I would chop the first one and give the second another week.
