Harvest & Curing Harvest time advice.

[Poooski]

I have 2 White Label Skunk #1 Autos currently at Day 64 and Day 69 from seed and wanting some advice on whether to chop now or wait another week (or more).

Both have been under a 600w HPS and using Biobizz Grow, Bloom and Alg-i-Mac.

Plant 1 - Day 69 - Leaves are quite yellow and I has been on plain water from this week. Trichomes are mostly cloudy with some clear and a few scattered amber - the amber ones are mostly small.

Plant 2 - Day 64 - Sugar leaves are not yellow but fans are getting a bit yellow. Trichomes are probably 50% cloudy 50% clear i have noticed a couple of ambers but not many.

Both still have some white hairs.

Any advice on my first grow would be fantastic.

Depends on the results you are after.

General rule of thumb is more amber = more couchlock (up to a point)

Otherwise going by your description plant 1 could come down anytime, plant 2 could use a few days yet to finish.

PS: Congrats on the first grow !

Thanks for the advice, i am thinking the first one can get the chop tomorrow and i will leave number 2 for a week or so extra.
Would 3 days drying be ok before putting them in a jar?

I read an advise on drying on his forum. It said 1 day of drying pr 10% RH + 1 day.

And my congratulations at the occation of your harvest.

Ah perfect, i am away a couple of days but with 50% rh that should work well.
