I'm getting so excited and don't wanna wait, but I know the results will be better if I do. Another pic:

2-4 weeks. Hairs will no longer be white. You’ll want to watch the trichs and chop when they are no longer clear, I wait until they are about 60/40 milky/amber. Pick up a jewelers loupe and you should have no problem. Make sure you’re looking a the trichs on the buds not the sugar leaves as those change color much quicker.

Looks very healthy. Great job!

Edit: here is a good pic on what I’m looking for. Also, if this is your first harvest make sure you have a plan for the dry/cure if planning to smoke/vape. It makes all the difference for the taste & smell. Cheers!

Thank you! The pics are helpful. I've started seeing some ambering, but probably mostly on the sugar leaves - looking at all the trichs instead of just the ones on the buds themselves. And since more of the hairs are turning orangey instead of white, I'm getting excited.

I appreciate the info, and the pics. It's hard for me to compare my pics vs internet pics when I'm not really sure what I'm looking for. "Somewhere around 4 weeks left" is very helpful! Thanks!

You’re on the homestretch and keep at it as you’ve been. Enjoy the grow!
