My plants have almost all cloudy trichomes and they are at their peek harvest time, and will turn (trichomes) amber before I am able to get to them to cut them down. We trim wet because we use a trimming machine, so I can't just cut them and hang them. I can't get there to do it until Saturday (today is monday), and I need to know if there is anything I can do, such as turning off the lights for the next 5 days, or what, to keep my plants "frozen" in their current state of peek harvest freshness? If I keep them in their current 12/12 light schedule for these next 5 days, they will surely be ruined, meaning the trichomes will turn amber, degrading the THC, getting rid of the psychoactive "high", and increasing the CBD, causing the tranquilizing effect. So I need to know what I can do to hold them off from turning in the next 5 days. My buddy told me to turn off the lights, even though that would mean they would sit in total darkness for the next 5 days?? Would that be ok to do? We run an octopot hybrid system that's both soil and hydroponic, like a wick system, where the plants are in net pots Filled with soil but suspended in individual nutrient-rich water reservoirs so their roots are submerged in the hydro solution, and that's how their fed, thru the bottom. I've been flushing them for a little over a week now with plain RO water and heavy finish solution to leech all the nutes out. Don't know if any of this is relevant. Any advice would be much appreciated!

Great question. I hope you decide to stick around.
