Hello, I’m growing Feminized Diesel from seed and it’s been 73 days since the flip to 12/12. I have reduced the days gradually over the last 2weeks to 10.5/13.5….and slightly reduced light intensity and temps, which are 73-74-day & 62-64-night.
Growing in coco amended with dry organics under a HLG 320xl r-spec LED.
Anyway, I hate when this happens…..the trichs are almost perfect IMO…..majority are cloudy just look like melted candy they’re so sticky. There are a still some clears, but I believe there will always be clears, and about 10% amber on the calyces.
There are a couple very tiny patches at the tips of a couple of the largest colas where the trichs appear to have degraded…..I just know they look fried and dried, but these are tiny spots and only a couple of them.
I’ve generally been a grower that patiently waits until all white pistils have turned and receded…..however long it may take. This has resulted, again my opinion, in buds that lost a fair amount of their aroma and stickiness.
It may be my imagination but I think I notice a slight decrease in the strong odor that this strain gives off. I like that odor, which is why I chose the strain.
Anyway, I can see these buds still foxtailing and spitting out white pistils a month from now.
What do you think ?
I would like to wait until next Tuesday b/c of schedule and convenience. But if my buds are losing appeal by the day I’ll chop tomorrow.
Anyone’s comments are appreciated and I’d like to hear them.
Thanks

Looking good. I think you know when to pull. Knowing your background being a farmer. I usually pull when I see no more white pistils/when it looks most appealing. Trichs help as well but it's like the 3rd thing on my checklist.
 
Thats a good looking plant. I think the harvest window when we think they reach full maturity is longer than what most people think without starting to lose it's strength is longer than what most people follow. She does look ready to be hung up but I don't think six more days will matter a whole lot. Harvest time still causes me anxiety because it's a lot of work to screw up when you are smelling the barn. As long as she is still drinking I don't think it could hurt.
