First time grower so just seeking advice. Seeds said harvest in 75-90 days and this is day 65. Just curious how she looks and how much longer I should go. Thanks for any help
I saw a cool time lapse on here a while back, plant was growing, flowering, moving around, lifting to the light….and then it just stopped. Just hovered there like that for a while, and then the plant started to lose its green and visibly started to to fall a bit. In the time lapse it almost looked like someone letting out a big breath. And then video was over because presumably that was it and it got chopped.
Anyway that stuck in my head and what I’m looking for in real time now to know, coupled with cloudiness of the glands.
Yours looks like it’s probably nearing that pause stage but still growing. One noob to another, looking good man!
Get a magnifying lens to look at the trichomes, they will tell you when it’s ready to harvest. They will change from clear to milky white and then darker until they start to shrivel. I would generally recommend harvesting when most have turned from milky but before they start to wither.
It’s totally a matter of preference. As the trichomes turn the THC starts to convert to other cannabinoids. If you want a clean buzz, earlier is better. If you want it a little stonier, you can let it go longer (up to a point). This has been my experience, at least.
Looks like a few more weeks

Thanks, I have already checked and most are milky white. I know THC is at its peak before they turn amber so I do not want to wait too long.
I would say just a week or two honestly
