Does this look ready or should I hold off a little?

White Widow Auto, 11 weeks, 7 weeks of flower.

4 days later! Does this look ready to chop? I took this from a bud about an inch from the top.

kinda hard to tell,
but i’d say wait a bit longer

agree my eyes are seeing clear trics, when all are cloudy that plant is done
this photo is from an upper sugar leaf yes

Yes it is. I guess I'll let her go a couple more days then.

Thanks! I'll hold off a bit longer.

Looking good, I'd say a few more days, What are they looking like on your buds? are the pistels brown and retracting back yet? Personally when you think they are ready give it a couple more days

 

[stratman61]

Any thoughts on this now? The buds look good and almost no white pistols but the trichs are still kind of clear to me.

 

[GreenGalaxyFarm]

Still clear trichs

I know! I'll just keep waiting, just afraid that I'll wait too long.

When left to their own devices new growers tend to chop too early not too late, you did well to join a forum

True! Especially someone like me that tends to lack in the patience department. Everyone on this forum has been so helpful and I'm very thankful for that. I'd be lost without it.

The pics of the trichs tell you all you need to know, and as your questioning them yourself and asking tells me you suspect they need a little longer too bro I don't think they'll have long to go now. The window isn't as tight as people think so when you think they are ready give them another couple of days more, you've waited this long so make the most of your beautiful flowers. Looking good though, we'll done

Wait as long as you possibly can. And when you can't wait any longer......go get your cutter.....and wait another week. ;)

While I tend to live by this, and I think the biggest 2 mistakes people make are that they pick too early, and don't properly cure, long enough.....

At some point......it has to be when it's right for you. You might like ripe but on the earlier side, someone else might like it slightly late.

But yeah, wait more. ;)

Great advice and I will keep waiting. I'll be back with more pics when I think it's time to chop.

Still needs time, and i think its taking longer because it looks like most if not all of the fan leaves are gone so its struggling to finish in my opinion.

I actually trimmed them today because they were all yellow. Here is the picture before I trimmed it. I guess it was a bad idea?

Well, i dont know necause either way she is struggling, when did you cut nutrients out?

 

[GreenGalaxyFarm]

removing all leaves before ripe and with the trichomes reflecting light and all maybe wasnt the best. havnt done it this way maybe it works out great. just be patient and stop tinkering
