To harvest or wait

[Newguy36]

Hey people.

i have been struggling with when to harvest my crop. I am now in the 10th week of flower (since first pistils) . My fan leaves have been curled and dying for a few weeks now.

I have attached pictures of my trichomes under a jewellers loop. I am not seeing hardly any amber but I’m not
really wanting much. This is my first plant so I’m not amazing at reading the trichs.

i have read that some plants don’t actually turn yellow. I just don’t want to leave them too long.

any help is much appreciated.

thanks

Got any pictures of the whole plant or a main cola?

Looks like a couple more weeks but would be easier to tell with a clear close up of best bud like this

See below. I took some photos to help my case

When you zoom in you can plainly see trichomes

Also in your first picture your trichomes are clear to white. You want amber three quarters or half anyways
IMO

See the amber in these trichomes

I'd pull it whenever honestly. If it still looks like it's fattening up or ripening, let it ride. If it just looks like it's passing it's prime and curling every last pistol in than pull it. Hard to really say, without judging it's last few days of growth. but no wrong answer in my opinion.

Good job! You are well within the harvest window so it's up to you. The benefit of harvesting now is more uplifting head .....and well, having weed sooner! The con is a slightly smaller harvest The benefits waiting is a more relaxed head, slightly bigger yield but bud rot could bite you if you wait too long

I'd harvest her

Your very close either way if you harvest it now it's going to be awesome weed if you wait a week it'll be awesome weed the more yellow trichomes you got the more couchlock Stone you'll get the clearer the trichomes the more uplifting the stone in my honest opinion
