Harvest and flush help

Why are you even looking at trichomes when the plant has over a month to go?

Because he’s 5 1/2 weeks in and the info told him 7 weeks.

Doug is right, put your scope away until week 9. Look up peoples ripe plants and see what you’re missing to look like theirs.

This is also awful bro science. You don’t pull a plant at a certain time for a more mellow high. That’s just unripe headache weed you’re smoking.

i disagree, the high from the earlier harvested weed is energetic, no headaches. where as if you wait you get glued to the chair kind of high

So if he chops at 7 weeks his 100% Indica Northern Lights is now magically energetic?

You’re wrong plain and simple

OP before you take any advice on this site, look at people who have actually grown, to people that are on their first grow

Everyone’s a master

If you’re growing couch lock weed, chopping early isn’t going to make you want to run laps. Genetics are genetics. Period. If you’re a grower, growing 100% indica, you WANT couch lock. That’s a sign you’re bringing out the best in the genetics.

the info on flowering times some breeders give you is just too selll you there strain. where as good seed breeders will tell you it takes 10 weeks to finish.
it does get confusing to say the least

agreed, indica v sativa high are two differant things. but i get on just fine with my weed. growing outside you dont have the luxury of getting a harvest to the end b 4 bud rot sets in. here in the uk
also, weed hits people in differant ways, some people just laugh at anything and talk shite and others just take it to enhance there day and can smoke some of the heviest weed and carry on like nothings happened

right? I dont where this more mellow degrading thc idea comes from but by the time ripe finishes there is not even much thc degraded, how can that even make the high different and more 'couch lock'? Just never made sense to me, I dont think if you grow sativas and wait until they ripe fully you are going to get a 'couch lock' lol

Because if you read what I wrote the plant is supposed to be ready at 7 weeks technically 45 to 50 days going by seedsman website. I am currently at. Day 36. And this is my first grow so I was under the impression that I needed to flush two weeks early That's why I'm looking at trichomes

It’s a way to justify impatience. Chopped early to avoid couch lock.

It’s normal for new growers. Go through some journals and look at pics of ripe weed. You will see swelling and almost no white hairs. White hairs won’t all of a sudden change.

the info on the seeds is wrong, there arnt any plants that are ready in 7 weeks that im aware of. its just to make you buy the seeds from them

Ok bud, being your first grow I get you following the seller info. The best advice I can give you is follow what the folks on this thread are telling you. It's the seeders, not the breeders, that will give you accurate info.
