Harvest Help - Is She Ready?

This is a GSC Autoflower, transplanted around July 28th and grown outdoors. Initially had some weird pest problems but the plant is going strong now. Do we think this is ready for harvest yet? If more or different photos are needed, I can provide.
Thanks for any tips.

What kind of temps are you having to get those colors?! But she’s really close. Check your trichomes with some form of magnification device. Here’s the chat I use. Make sure to check buds, not sugar leaves. Awesome girl! Good luck and happy growing!!!

I think she could go another few days if you have nice dry weather. I like to let my leaves yellow a bit. If they are green there is still energy to go into the buds.

It has been a super hot summer. Just now dropping into the low 90s during the day. We’ve had a lot of days over 100 degrees. Thanks for the chart. I may need to clip a bud so that I can put it under magnification. I’ll try that tonight. Thanks.

Will keep watching for the yellowing leaves. Thanks

We had several days here like that as well, but my first one just stayed bright green. Your buds are gorgeous!!

she’s beautiful

Frosty bud yum looks like alot of cloudy trichomes they are at there peak THC ,what sort of high do u want ,do u want couch lock high or peak THC high

Here are a few close ups of the Trichromes? Do these look cloudy to you. Interesting that some have red veins in them. For this first plant (my last harvest was a “learning experience”), I will go for max THC. I have another plant a few weeks younger that I can use for more of a couch lock experience. So, I can try both and see what I like. Thanks for all the good advice.

No worries glad to help

Ok we are looking at lower temps here in IL I don’t know if we can squeak by for maybe a week more but How cold can a outside plant handle before harvesting ,my wife is eating smaller buds claiming she gets a buzz. I am hoping she doesn’t eat the whole plant before we harvest. HAHA This picture is about 1 week old… I went out yesterday and the colas/buds are so heavy they are bending down the bracnhes bigtime,there is some weight to them even with support ![20211001_121458|375x500] (upload://erwhfH8RX7S8WQs94lTsG18y7hJ.jpeg)

Update on my ripest plant. Buds are maturing nicely. No caterpillars or black mites this time.
I think this is about ready to harvest. Any input is appreciated.







Looks delicious
