Included are some pics of a small auto that sprouted 11 weeks ago. This is my first grow and I am having a hard time determining when I should harvest. More Info: Light shedule stayed at 18 6 the entire grow (I know not good) Flush was done too early and had nute and PH problems in the last few weeks that's why I believe there are brown spots on the leafs. Trichomes are mostly milky with a few amber and a few clear under a 60X microscope I am a noob any help appreciated
Those definately look ready I can see some Amber's just from those pics and not a single white pistil left. I would let it drink what's left in your growing medium then give it the chop maybe try out the 2 days of darkness to try and amp thc production but that might just make the existing THC mature into more amber. I'm still a pretty new grower too but I find I like when more of the trichs are cloudy and a few clear trich and a few amber I staggered a few of my plants and the ones that went too far with amber trichs lost alot of potency and the amazing taste of the strain.
Darkness doesnt amp thc production. It takes photosynthesis to amp thc production. That doesnt happen in the dark.
Nothing wrong with 18/6 schedule...this one has been on 18/6 from sprout and has been on 12/12 for at least the past 2 weeks( didn't feel like running a separate tent for 1 auto and I assumed it only had 2 weeks left) Grofo Grows Autos&Photos w/288v2 260w kit
