Are These Ready to harvest?? 1st time grower.

[JGrows]

Hello! I have these 2 platinum cookie phenos growing. 5 gallon pots last fed Gaia greens January 2nd. But plants look really amber in trichome color. I have a 30x , 60x and 90x. But plants don’t look flushed out or fully colored. HELP. Should I ignore it and keep going? I was originally gonna harvest 2 weeks from now. I’m growing these for a heavy indica feel as I’ve heard trichomes play a role in that. First 3 pictures are plant 1 with more amber than plant 2

I wouldn't harvest them. There are still a lot of white pistils, so the buds are still growing. I wait till they're all amber and drooping down. I'd recommend another two weeks, at least.

Nope.
How many weeks in flower?
If not 10 weeks i wouldnt even consider harvest.

What I was hoping to hear because I don’t think they are anywhere close but are showing the signs of what I read with others.

New grower.

Give that lady another 4 to 6 weeks and you will have some top shelf shit bro

Are you looking at Tricomes ?

Like what BB said....

Are you looking at the sugar leaves or calyx......

The sugar leaves will amber way before the calyx......

Make sure you're inspecting the calyx......

Another way to tell is the pistils.....there is alot of white.....when the pistils ( hairs ) turn brown and recede/lay down, it's probably time.....

@BB22 you guys are sick man. I’ll definitely give her another 3-4 weeks then and keep an eye on the calyx trichomes. I have been looking at the sugar leaves but you saying that makes sense. A lot of the pistols were still white and trichomes clear but the leaves were already amber. I’m gonna uo the light from 90% to 100% 400watts over the canopy. I’m using an ion board s44.

 

[Bilber]

Awesome.....

Keep us posted......

I’d harvest when there cloudy and a few amber ones there past there prime when they turn amber but when there’s a few amber most likely all buds are prime for harvest if you harvest when they’re just cloudy, the lower ones might not be ready

 

[JGrows]

And let the colors start shining..

 

[Natep]

Looks like you still have some time to me. White pistols and not much fade. You still have a couple weeks at least in my mind

 

[JGrows]

Don’t know how much longer I can wait! LOL

nice to see your Platinum Cookie phenos. For me tho maybe give them a bit more time

She’s at 70 days / 10 weeks of flower today. Most trichomes are milky just waiting on a few more to amber up. I have a 90x scope so I’m able to keep an eye on them
