Ready to Harvest?

Jul 17, 2024 10:14 AM

Is this ready to harvest? Trichomes are still a little clear, and not 100% milky. Some say to let the thrichomes become almost amber color. Not my plant, I am just the photographer.

I'd leave longer if it were mine. Given all the information...

depends what you like, too. Generally speaking, when the trichomes get milky/amber, the effects also lean more into the mellow experience. Depends a lot on the strain, tbh

Amber oil is degradation of both terpenes and cannabinoids, I never understood why people want their herb overripe. Most varieties I've ever frown, this was close to the sweet spot for harvest. I would maybe go 2-3 more days, but I use the pistils as the primary visual cue - you want ~90% of the pistils to turn orange, generally.
