    Hi guys, I grow plants for the first time this year and I´m a bit unsure about right harvest time... :-( I attach some photos below with a plead for your opinions - are my ladies ready or not? :) Thank you very much!

    PS: I know, that after short look at pictures, one may say, that they´re probably ready to go... - pistils are gone :) BUT! Under the scope trichomes are: several clear/ most cloudy / several amber. I´m bit confused, because in "macro view" it seems, it´s too late for harvest (pistils are gone), but in "micro view" it seems it´s too early (trichomes are not amber yet) :-(

    PPS: outdoor growing, mostly sunny weather, day between 15 - 20 C / night 7 - 12 C, middle Europe

    First two pictures = plant which has swollen calyxes + is drying up (branches start to crack pretty easily) / but still trichomes are mostly cloudy
    Third picture = another plant - pistils are gone, but calyxes aren´t swollen and under the scope mostly cloudy
    Fourth and fifth picture = last plant - pistils gone, calyxes not swollen, trichomes mostly cloudy

  2. Yo man that plant in pic 1 and 2 Yea I would pic as soon as possible . If you leave it too long potency will weaken. But I would leave the others for a while. But everything looks killer man. peace
     
  3. The first two pics the plant seems like its unhealthy.. Leaves seem really droopy and Miscolored but maybe that's the streak. I'd pic the first two pics.
     
  4. The last three pics look healthier. Maybe leave the last two pics in just a tad longer. They all look good to me. Personally I'd pluck but maybe I'm not experienced enough to really give expert advice.
