This is my first real attempt at growing weed. I had grown once before about 10 years ago and really didn't no a thing. My partner was the 1 with experience.

First I started with 10 plants(some kind of kush according to clone supplier.) I got them late and didn't put them out until June 16/16. I was told that will be done on sept 30/16. How he knows the exact date is a mystery to me. if he cannot see them how does he no exactly.

Can someone tell me exactly how to determine harvest time and what i should be looking for. I have no Idea on whether I will even get a oz/plant. I hope so. the plants looking really rough. I think they me be dying. All the leaves have turned yellow and purple around the buds...

I have pics if this helps....

There's a great chance that is completely normal for this time of year. I wouldn't harvest until my trichomes looked right or the plant was literally dead. If I'm still on I will have a look at the photos but along with the photos tell us everything you've been putting in or on the plants. Also please explain how you are watering the plants.

They look great man, it happens especially outdoors

Leaves turn colors at the end of the season just like trees

You don't smoke the fan leaves so it's not a big deal

I'd wait for another week or two to harvest unless you get a big storm

Soil- promix added Nutricoat(70 slow release), kelp and Aucqasorb in bottom
Watered only when dry(2-4 days depending on weather
gave a 20-20-20 every 2 weeks with a b vitamin
molasses every watering
once seen hairs switched to 10-52-10 with big bud still using molasses.

Depending on weather I would let them go as long as possible l. It looks great. What is your weather like the next few weeks? I'd say at least 2-3 weeks until all pistols are brown and receding into the bud with calyxes swollen

Plants look great! I would stop feeding at this point. Buds look to be just a bit over half done...they will get much fatter and smellier, a good thing...above all else, be patient! you got them this far and would be a shame to take em before there prime...keep us posted

Thanks for all the info. Just bought a microscope and the trichlomes are just beginning to turn cloudy. Cannot wait to try. Friends saying to cut of a sample. There is not a chance in hell I would do such a thing. Good things come to those who wait. Will send pics once done. Thanks again.

this fucked with me this year but a lot of my plants were ripe with pistils still lively. I cut a swamp skunk a couple weeks back. I like to leave a small branch sometimes to see how much longer it could go and that branch still has white pistils but the buds arent swelling anymore.

Op check out, harvest time a tutorial in the harvesting forum its a sticky

1-5-1 is too much P and too early which is very possibly why the leaves are yellowing. Perhaps mix in some manures and more nutrition into the soil for next year and just feed 1-1-1 from start to finish. Looks like you will still get a decent harvest!

Most pistils should be brown with swollen calyxes (looks like they contain a seed), most trichomes should be cloudy rather than clear

I agree with Desert grow let "most" of the pistils get brown like 70% . The longer you let it go at this point the more "couchy" your high will be. Trichomes partly cloudy she's ready!!
