Would you harvest?

I would say 2 more weeks.

It's not as simple as alot of people make it out to be, but its not all that complex either.

The way I see it, pistils should go brown or orange and recede a bit at the top, and that's the sign you're in the last act. I like to see the plant slow its metabolism a bit, drinking/eating less, and the lower growth looking more like the top.

I'll get the scope out to check the condition of the trichs to confirm my suspicions if I feel like I'm getting mixed signals or have schedule conflicts that require immediate harvest, just to see where I'm at so I can have reasonable expectations for the strain.

I think you're in the harvest window, but a few more weeks wouldn't hurt in my opinion.

Thanks a lot for this! What would be the difference if I was to harvest right now vs in 2 weeks? I’m mainly looking for high terpene levels and am probably going to wash a good portion of my harvest to press hash rosin.

Something to think about with trichs, only focus on the bud trichs, and if you handle them or touch them while handling, they can prematurely amber.

I’ve got 4 girls at day 2 of week 9 in my tent, was wondering if you would harvest some right now or wait until end of week 9. I can harvest then separately since I dry in another tent.

At this point it's up to you, gorgeous plants. They look healthy enough to go as long as you like and done enough to pick some of the ripest tops if you need some pot.
