New to growing when to harvest

Nice pictures. I’ve done a bunch of research on this one. Your plants aren’t ready. You need 70-90% of the pistils to be brown. Also check the trichomes with a quality magnifying lense. They need to be cloudy not clear. If you have a new iPhone or android phone the zoom function works good for checking trichomes. Have fun.

This it harvest ready

Check out my harves of Hawaiian Blue Dream. The colas are ridiculous.

Here is a shot from my Digital Microscope… Notice the cloudy trichome with a few that are amber. In my opinion ofter spending a bunch of time trying to get this right I believe his to be at the peak of both potency, aroma and flavor

I finally found out that the fan and with my exhaust was drying out the the leaves. I also add some fish emulsion and turned off the fan.
That’s what stopped mine

I was more concerned about the leaves turning up. I know they are not ready.
Thanks

Fish emulsion works great. I also use epson salt for magnesium when needed. 1 tablespoon of epson salt per gallon of water. It works great!!!
Nice plants keep up the great work :100::100::+1:
