Thanks G, ya it'll be my first picking so timing it right is still new to me. Understanding what to do is fine, understanding what the trichs look like for the first time is confusing.
I'll let you know, lol
The trichs I have a good idea on and I’ve done countless hours of harvest research as everything else in my grow journey lol!
This is from WW1 the other day through my LED microscope at 60x

Nice Dutch...I have something similar but yours is more detailed. I like it. I know what to look for, I just can't convince myself if I am seeing cloudy or clear. But, most of my pistils are brown and tomorrow once the sun comes out I will take a closer look.
Awesome stuff bro.

From what I’ve read even some experienced growers still have troubles narrowing down the clear vrs cloudy trichs. They say the best time to harvest is when there is 3-5% amber as that’s generally when 80-90% of reg trichs will be cloudy. This is from another post I read

I'm going to take a couple of popcorns off tomorrow. One I know is early and one I think is getting close. I can compare the two and see the difference between cloudy and clear ones, hopefully. Good information Dutchie.
Do you have a loupe? Or a microscope?
30x is good anything above that will just get you in closer and even more in depth!!

@Mr. Magoo some advice if you could. When you harvested your girls, did you find the tops were getting ready sooner and did you pluck those. I took two branches off today but I think I'm early so I stopped. What did you find when you did your first harvest? Anything I need to be looking for that would help?
Also, how long did you let the buds hang dry after bud wash?
Thanks Magoo.

Man those look gorgeous...Happy Thanksgiving as well, and to the rest of you Canadian boys and girls. Did it do much damage or are you able to splint it back til harvest? Looks like you're real close as well. Should be a good Christmas after a good cure.
She doing the gangsta lean for ya!
After a bud wash do you have to hang dry for 24hrs before placing on a drying net?
I have my drybox prepped and ready but wanted to “bud-wash” and didn’t know if after washing you could place right into the drying rack itself ?

Ya just til they are not wet anymore, like pre wash. As far as I know. Maybe I can get @Amy Gardner to stop by here and give her thoughts when she has some time.
Thanks Mr.Sauga, I did prop them back up as much as I could. I love the purple going on.Its cloudy up this way today, no sunshine.
Then colder nights are bringing out those pretty purples ! Great job Mrg

So the two branches I took off today are relatively dry now after their bud wash. I'm going to do the roasting bag method of drying, so @Derbybud if you wouldn't mind answering a question or two for me. I haven't seen you around here in a while so I do hope things are OK. My question is should these be going straight into the bag now or wait a bit? Do you store the bags in the fridge or just a dark cool place? The rest of your instructions are pretty clear so far. Thanks again.
