How much weight do buds gain in the last 2 weeks - Should i harvest already?

Not even a little true. If you are looking at the wrong part of the plant then yes they will be all amber (like on the sugar leaves)

If you are looking at the calyx itself like you are suppose to then you will be around 5% or less amber with the rest milky

Telling someone to cut a plant too soon is a poor method... but hey if you want to cut yours prematurely go for it dude.

Anyone can test out the theory by harvesting some buds when you say they are ready and actually waiting til they are ripe and doing a side by side. The ones that are ripe will always blow the premature out of the water.

Trichs, size matters

As if I havent in 20 years of growing let a plant go too long. I have. If the plant is still growing lots of tricombes are going to be clear. If you have a lot of clear tricombes, obviously the plant is not done. If however it is like I said it is, there will be little to zero clear tricombes. From there you get to actually choose if you want a uplifting energetic type stone, or a heavy sleepy type stone. I prefer a more wakeful stone, so I can still do shit. At least stay motivated to do shit

Anyways, it's nice to have the choice. Who here told him to cut it down early?
Some said to start fishing now, some said wait a week or two. I actually said both, and explained my answer. Gave him the information on milky vrs amber trics, told him what I prefer.... come on man. You like it the way you like it. I'm happy for you. But to tell people they are doing it wrong when they evidently arent... SMH...

Anyways, I dont care to argue the point anymore. I dont see this going anywhere.

Does longer veg and topping get more buds ?

How do you get more weight if only veg for 3 -4 weeks ?

Co2 is the only sure way to get more. The rest is pheno hunting and making sure the grow goes perfect. I mean there are illegal pgrs lol, but don't do that.

I'm right there with ya. I'm dropping my veg times too. Hoping my yeilds are the same.. I'll find out in a few months

Make sure the plant is growing fast and has zero issues. Bend the top over 180 a day or two before flip.

I think our issue is soilless...but ours has a faster time to harvest so it's a toss up on which is better.
