Afghan Skunk Auto Harvest ?

hi guys and girls, this is an auto ive had outside during the day and inside in my tent at night, 24/0 light schedule from seed. She is about 67 days old and looking like she is about ready to harvest. Back in the day, i would have already harvested her a week ago, but after 10 years of growing, ive learned to wait till she is absolutely ready and crying to be cut down. She still has some white hairs and the trechs have no amber in them. I've been flushing (feeding) just PH water for the last 10days and the PPM coming out in the run off is down to 175. So its pretty much cleaned out. Now im just waiting for her to go all out in a last ditch effort to plump up before i harvest her.
One thing that surprised me is the color she has taken on in the last week or so.
here she is last week (7 days ago).and today. Big difference.

UP DATE. Im wondering if anyone has let their plants go this far till all the leaves are yellow and the trachs are cloudy, and let it go a little further? I dont know if she will get any fuller if i let her go another week or is she at the biggest she will be ??

Damn Gordi, you stay gone for a while then BANG you show up with this awesome show. Beautiful plants my friend. Next time dangle a carrot before our noses before you surprise us like that. :cool:
 
Gorgeous Gordo! Did you top her, train her to get that beautiful shape? If so, more proof that autos can take it better than originally thought.
 
Lol, hahaha. She has been around for the last 68 days but I didn't think to show he off as she was just your typical auto plant but its only in the last week or so that she has come out with all the colours and started looking like something from a seed catalogue. She's actually the first plant i have let go that long before harves.
 
Actually I didn't do any training or even top her. She is just a natural beauty. I too am amazed by her shape.
She is looking pretty dank. And i think she might produce 3 oz when its all said a nd done. I usually think 1 or 2 oz from an auto,, especially for 68 days from seed. (Sprout) is a good haul. Im hoping to get 8-10 oz off the MLs.
 
Thanks to all.
Attitude seed bank just asked me if they could use the photos of her for their social media. I had sent it to them just to show them how nice it came out and they want to use it. How cool is that.

The concern I would have would be the degradation of the thc. As the cloudy heads oxidize, they turn amber and the result is CBN which will make you sleepy/sedated. This will also reduce your potency.

She already looks done to me in that closeup shot.
 
I thought the same thing but right now im feeding her molasses and water for a few days to see if she wants to fatten up a little more. I use to do this with all my plants but got out of the habit until now. At any rate, i will harvest her this weekend.
Thank you for your input.

Totally awesome!! She sure is a beautiful specimen. I guess the only thing about letting her go longer is if you don't want amber trichs, better take her down soon.
