Well it’s been a wild first grow but it’s looking good. How much longer you think? “2 weeks”? Haha

Yeah, 3-4 weeks. Don't worry too much about harvesting a little later. With bud, it's significantly better to harvest a little too late than a little too early. And the dude down below giving you shit is right about one thing, you should get a microscope or a loupe. When all the trichs go clowdy and 10-20% of them go amber, it's time to chop. The more amber you let on, the more sedating the effect usually is, but people react differently to those cannabinoid ratios. If you wanna experience the differences, harvest gradually. Chop some of the buds at 10% amber, the rest at 25%, 50%, 75%, and 100%. When they're dried and cured, try them and see what your sweet spot is.

Lol, I wonder what 100% would be like. Is the plant already dead then?

No, you can def go to 100% amber before it dies. Your plant dying by itself would take a good deal longer without being chopped than the recommended harvest date which is just for harvest quality. And even then quality's relative. Some people prefer the flavor and effects from harvesting late.

I don’t think skilled enough to do that yet! Haha but that’s a good idea. Think I’ll try with the next round. Right now I’d be happy to just have a successful grow.

It looks like it will be successful. Those buds look lovely.

I was honestly thinking the same. I feel like she’s been a slow grower.
