    To harvest or not??

    hi guys

    I’m on east coast of Australia and tossing up whether to harvest or not. Apparently the rule of thumb from plant to harvest is Father’s Day to Mother’s Day snd Mother’s Day is may 9th so still a fair while away. We have had natural disaster level rain and floods here recently and 6 days of rain and wind knocked my plants around pretty bad so I’m worried about bud rot etc if we get more bad weather

    in going to get a Jewlers loop today to look at the trichromes more closely but wanted to get an opinion about just how early it would be to take them out now.

    took a few photos from each plant this morning, thanks in advance guys hi guys

    Looks like your getting close. Maybe another week or two if I had to guess. But that's just a guess. Theres a few things to look for. Primarily I look at trikes. I wait till there's at least 25% amber.

    Read through this link. Everything you need to know about harvesting your bud..

    Harvesting cannabis at the right time is just as important as how you grow the plant. Harvest marijuana buds too soon and you lose potency and yields; too late and you can end up making a batch of sleep medicine. Learn how to harvest at the perfect time, every time! Here's what you need...

      Sorry about the weather you been having, I heard,
      Looks like they still have plenty bud building time to go, I'd say wait 2 weeks, see if they can take another 2 weeks to flush.

          I know my response might be a little late, but I wanted to share some insights for others who might have the same question. From those pics, it seems like your harvest might not be ready just yet.I know my response might be a little late, but I wanted to share some insights for others who might have the same question. From those pics, it seems like your harvest might not be ready just yet. With the recent rain and wind knocking your plants around, it's understandable to be concerned about bud rot. It's a good idea to get a jeweler's loop to closely examine the trichomes and determine their maturity. If they're not fully developed, it's best to wait a bit longer to avoid any potential issues. BTW, I recently stumbled upon some really cool cannabis accessories online. They offer a variety of highly flavored options that you might find interesting.

          You are definitely entering the harvest window. I agree with most of the other comments. Give them a couple of weeks and they will fatten up nicely.
