    Alright I'm seeing alot of when should I harvest threads on this forum lately and hears how.

    Get a 60x-100x pocket microscope from radioshack for $10 and check out your tichomes. By taking a a small leaf or calyx. Then go by this chart to see when you want to harvest and what type of high you want by the color of your tichs.

    Note: Sometimes you want to harvest the top and bottom at different times to let the bottom mature more.

    Clear Trichome- Not enough potency yet. Harvesting now will decrease yeild.
    Cloudy Trichome- Harvesting when "most" trichomes are cloudy or milky will give you a "up/heady/energetic/rush" high.
    Amber Tichome- Harvesting when "most" trichomes are amber will give you a narcotic/couchlock high.
    Half Amber/Half Cloudy- Harvesting when you have a 50/50 mix of amber and cloudy trichomes will give you a combination of head and body high.

    Peace
