Harvest before lights on or off?

[JKash]

So we all usually Harvest before light go on right?!? Bugbee states that terp production happens in light hours... so SHOULD you chop before lights go off or on? What's your opinion?

I harvest early before lights go on, sometimes if i go out to do something before lights go out in the last day flower, i just turn the lights off and next morning i chop.

anyways did it many ways and there's no difference whatsoever.

now outdoor/greenhouse i chop after at least two sunny days and clear nights to make sure they are sticky. chop 6am.

As an outdoor grower I cut whenever they’re ready, and when I have time to defoliate and inspect. A big plant might take me three days to bring in, in several manageable sessions. I don’t want to get overwhelmed or burnt out, so I cut a bit here and there when it’s time. I don’t want to cut more than I can defoliate while it’s still juicy.

I’ve heard talk of early morning terps and that’s fine but I’m just an earthling with only two hands.

I personally done before and after... but the science behind it makes me think to do it before lights out

I harvest when I am ready :D

Yep! Same here. That's usually when the lights are on.

We harvested a plant two days ago because we had a power outage. The plant was ready anyway. We just decided it would give us something to do while the power was out. LOL
