I wouldlike to harvest this plant but I want it to be coach lock shut off my brain effect more the a energetic so I have been trying to wait. What do you guys think, enough amber to get what I want? And I'm mostly seeing the tops with some amber I think, the lower not so much, should I just harvest the top and leave the lowers for a few more days? Just want it to be the best it can be, appreciate everyone

I'd wait until at least 20% of the trichomes are amber for couch lock effect. Plus, you'll get a heavier harvest. Looks really frosty, nice work.

Count 25 trichomes in a small area, if 5 are amber then she is ready. On the colas not the sugar leaves the sugar leaves will turn first. Your plant will look almost totally dead when it's ready.

It seems like the plant has stopped maturing, I haven't noticed any more change in it and the tricomes look the same past few weeks to me. Its starting to get cold at night and I have been battling a few pest that I had to stop fighting considering the stage of flower. I'm at about the 10 week of flower since I noticed buds start. I started late. Appreciate the input

I'm in agreement. You want 20%-25% Amber trichomes. Just a LITTLE BIT longer....check them daily.

Yup, I also had what seemed like stalled trichomes while the plant continued to fade, which of course brings the bugs.
Eventually, my trichomes did turn, the sun leaves dried and shriveled , the weather turned cold, the buds turned purple and the bugs got too cold and left.
I seldom get enough time before the weather turns to grow them to completion. Good luck.

That's funny, the temp has really dropped lately and now I can't find any more bugs, buds are really turning purple now too. Looks like maybe they're finishing up.
