This is my first indoor grow. Zkittelz, autoflower. Started oct 24. I have had succesfull outdoor grows but always have a hard time determinging exactly when to harvest. ![IMG_1827](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/growingmarijuana/original/4X/b/5/7/b578fcba935accdea49bae3a5a2688924c69feef.jpeg) ![IMG_1829](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/growingmarijuana/original/4X/6/8/7/6870a8cf2cae71c6c51ed8a277f345f4b317ad9d.jpeg) ![IMG_1830](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/growingmarijuana/original/4X/9/1/5/915ac65dd9cfa8fa8925961b84f1a40b2b08e2c0.jpeg) ![IMG_1831](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/growingmarijuana/original/4X/3/a/2/3a2f78a628934b197a8162d5979c18d6bcfc3c97.jpeg) ![IMG_1832](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/growingmarijuana/original/4X/a/0/8/a08b308e4d99a649fce4d8f9a2fe6054c15d4ed8.jpeg) ---

You’ll want the white pistils to brown and recede, then begin looking at the trichomes for your desired level of maturity. ![Trichomes](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/growingmarijuana/original/4X/3/3/4/334b596a450407e50931a0858a8d0e65f2e4976a.jpeg) [![](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/growingmarijuana/original/4X/5/8/8/5883bfeef242b28d87bfcf188b9318355aff0361.jpeg "Is Your Cannabis Plant Ready For Harvest?") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ySnb7Ck-0Rk) ---

Ditto the man above me. Id wait another wee or two and check again. Those pistils look pretty erect and you have a fair amount of white ones still. Also you calyx (buds) havent tryna begun to swell. Maybe looking at closer to 3 weeks then one ---

I pull when 25 percent of crystals are yellow or amber. It’s personal preference but those look like they are at least another week out to me.
