Need advice on harvest please…

  This is autoflower ( unknown genetics haha lost track) I’m seeing amber on leaves but not on flower itself. May be starting to foxtail not sure. Waiting for calyx’s to swell, think starting to. I’m thinking 1-2 weeks, maybe start to flush in 7-8 days. I know still have white pistils. Believe these are new growth. Hope pics help tell story, definitely don’t want a premature harvest. Please any advice would be appreciated. Thanks…

No pictures.

FYI trichomes on sugar leaves mature much sooner than on flower. Samples should always be from flower calyx.

As @Myfriendis410 said, trichomes on the calyx is what to watch. I don’t see any foxtailing, just swelling and filling in I believe.

Are you a SWE?

Jk. So when you upload pics, gotta let them finish loading all the way till you see file name. It will look like a function img_7483u38ei3()

Look yummy. Still some growing whites. A bit more. Getting frosty.

I guess then pics just weren’t loading for me earlier…
And by the way. That Is one densely packed lady right there. Omg.

You didn’t need help, you just wanted to show-off haha :slight_smile:

Jk.

For real though, what you do with this one?

Some heavy defoliation?

That’s funny lol. I reall

That’s funny, Lots LST and some defoliation. Won’t get height but per sq. Inch like a giant bouquet.
I really am not sure if calyx’s are starting to swell, I see amber on some trichomes on leaves but none on flower. Just all cloudy. I’m watching closely as I do want to flush for a week, I think may be in the last 2 weeks of maturing.

I grow Hydro and generally just feed water and hydroguard the last week I’ll wait for 10% Amber on the flower and let go another week feeding just water to hopefully get about 20% Then I’ll Harvest… absolutely stunning nugs you have there

looks amazing.

Thanks all, still scratching head when to harvest. Conflicting data. That plant got that way by much LST. Kept canopy even as long as could, then just had left to grow. Just about every square inch is flowers. Lots work daily but was worth it. Thanks again for compliments. New at this as Virginia just became legal July 1st. Last year. Not new botany but deciding when to harvest is my last thing to figure out.:+1:

Be sure and wash them when you harvest. Looking great.

Those are some beautiful buds

They look milky enough from what I can see you have made it to a successful harvest. Outside of amber I also look for the top pistols turn back into the bud and stop stretching up. To me that’s the flower saying I’ve had enough.
