Harvesting & Drying (pics)

Hey All,
As you guys know this is my 2nd grow and I have 6 plants flowering. About 10 days ago I harvested 2 of the 6 plants because >75% of the pistils had changed to orange, and trichomes were all cloudy. I didnt see any amber ones but was afraid to wait too long. So harvested 2 and have it drying.

I tried some and it smoked great - not too harsh and stayed lit fine. Has an earthy taste to it and didnt think I got very high from one bowl. Maybe I cut these too early??

So here are the remaining plants that have not been harvested. Decided to wait a bit longer on these and wanted to get opinions.





It also seems to have lost a lot of that weed smell and now just smells "green". For drying, I'm using a closet with a 4" carbon filter and fan just setting in the room on the floor. The stems are hanging from shelves several feet above the filter/fan, so nondorect air blowing right on the bud. This closet is in the basement so temps are steady 68-71 degrees and RH is holding steady at 52%.

Tips and suggestions appreciated - thanks!

You harvested too early. The others have a couple weeks left to go. And I see seeds.

Which pic? How is that even possible? The males were pulled weeks before flowering began? Heat stress/hermies?

Too late to do anything about it now. Let them finish.

That the only one you saw? That's the smallest remaining plant. I'm gonna have to take another look.

So curing the stuff I already cut wont increase potency, right? It is what it is, just let these others keep maturing another week or two?
