Week 9 flowering, time to harvest?

Adam2112 · Sep 26, 2023

My first grow, 2x2x4 grow, 130watt light, soil. Just hit week 9 of flowering.
5 different strains.
Hindu kush
Sherbert cake
Northern lights
Blue dream
Jack herrer

I have been monitoring the trichomes, but each strain is a bit different. Most are cloudy at this point, but a few strains are much deeper cloudiness. Wanting to harvest all the plants at the same time.

Time to flush?

Very nice. Tight buds. What are the trichs telling you?

The trichs are all over the place. A few plants are very milky/cloudy, other plants are sorta cloudy. Tough harvest 5 dif strains at same time.

Hey, don’t try to harvest all at one time. Some members have even mentioned performing a staged harvest on a single plant depending on trichs.

All cloudy is good with some amber thrown in. Others will comment.

If you're wondering when, it can be anytime now its a preference thing at this point. They'll bulk up a bit more over the next few weeks and the cannabis effects for me mellow a bit. I find early cut weed gets me jittery. I'm going 10 - 11 weeks and I pull 1 at a time, trim, hang & the next day or 2 another,, It can take me a week to do 5-6 plants.

Appreciate the feedback, I think Ill give it another 5-7 days or so before I cut!

I got a chuckle out of this. I have some Durban Poison that I grew and had to harvest early due to odor during flower. I'm more of an Indica guy, and the early Durban really freaks me out for the first 20 minutes or so, very jittery and nervous. I'm sure a few more weeks in flower would have helped mellow out the high. I harvested almost all cloudy, no ambers except on the sugar leaves.

Ive been smoking a long time but it still makes me nervous at times--as for the Durban Poison, very potent, I just smoke less and have less jitters. I really hate being too high ! Luckily, I know the peak is around 20 minutes, so I just watch a clock and know that it will pass.

"Im having a heart attack"...... " No your not stupid, you over did it, again." ..... "OK, what time is it" -----" Its only gonna be 20 minutes, you'll live"....

Don't eliminate nutes completely, taper them off from 9 weeks on until the last liquid is water only if at 9 weeks if I'm feeding 5/5/10 at full flower I cut to 4/4/8- 3/3/6/ - 1/1/2 then water with Epsom Salts to help the burn quality

Week 9 flowering, time to harvest?
