As always, if there is a topic you'd like to see discussed, please send me a PM or post on my journal!

Re: New City Grower

I have something I'd like discussed. Lately I've been reading a few post mentioning that trichomes are not always the most important way to go about deciding when your cannabis plant should be chopped. I really didn't understand what the other factors might be. Can anyone elaborate on this?

You know Bar I have been a big proponent that cloudy trichomes meant it was time to chop as that has always worked for me if there is another way I'd def like to know.

Re: New City Grower

some people wait for 10-15 % amber so,e people wait up till 50%
depends if you want a more head or body high more amber supposedly more couchlouck

chronics is a better interpretation of it but thats much further along.

It's when the calyx es stack on top of each other creating a skinny column. This happens over multiple points on the cola making a scraggly look.

Re: New City Grower

I've seen some people reference having all the pistils being orange/brown as an indicator of when to chop. Is there any merit to that?

Re: New City Grower

Yup that's it Mr Flinstone!

Re: New City Grower

No dresney. i have strains that start to brown as early as week 3. that alone isnt a deciding factor. u need to know ur strain really but trichs, bud density, smell and pistils combined all determine harvest time.

Re: New City Grower

You need a 30x jewelers loupe to see the trichomes and judge when to harvest. Most people harvest from 5%-30% amber trichomes. Harvest at 5%-15% amber trichomes for a "head high" energetic effect and harvest at 30%-50% amber trichomes for a "body stone" sedative effect strain dependent.

Here is the 30x jewellers loupe I own

Ahh, good to know. My GDP is in her fifth week and has had some orange hairs for a week or so. I was worried she wasn't going to bulk up any more.
