Live Stoner Chat When do you harvest

Thanks @Dr.Bubbles great information man!
The Strain is Auto Glueberry OG from Dutch Passion and they say around about the 77 day mark but my general feeling with 4 out of the 6 girls is their gonna go a couple of weeks longer. Wondering when to start the flush. Normally do about a week with just Canna Boost and a touch of Cannazyme.
I’ll try and get some decent pics tomorrow and post them in this thread. Here’s a couple I posted in my journal yesterday (I think).

The questions in the title but I’d like different peoples take on this.
I know we always talk about cloudy trichomes, Amber trichomes, pistils turn orange etc. but what else do you look out for as a sign to harvest at the optimum time?
When would everyone say the ideal time to chop would be for optimum stone/yield?

THC is maximum when trichomes are still clear, according to https://www.thcfarmer.com/community/threads/trichomes-thc-and-couchlock.30668/
But that doesn't mean that's the best time for everyone to harvest.

Waiting for thc to degrade into cbn won't help the couchlock for some of us who have tried cbn, because it gives us insomnia, not sleepiness.

Flushing can harm quality and yield, according to https://www.rollitup.org/t/the-grea...-and-in-depth-look-at-the-final-weeks.524474/

I recently had a beautiful seedsman white widow plant that I didn't harvest because there were no amber trichomes.
The plant went downhill fast, and lost much of its expected potency when harvested a few weeks later.
 
Nice pics dude. I would have to say that it all looks really good...but not quite there yet. DP gear seems to have a few different phenos that poke out of their products... which seems to be these 100-120 day monsters or ruderalis looking stalky plant with a weird shape/structure, and light yields...and of course there is also the textbook variety, which is presumably what they were attempting to sell you in the first place, and done at the 70-80 day mark or so. If you haven't yet grown out a bean from Mephisto, do it....and spend the few extra dollars and order something from the Artisanal Collection. Phisto seeds are stupid consistent and they hook you up huge. Just by seeing how nice your plants are, you NEED a loupe/scope. That will unlock the door to perfect harvest windows, and let you see the exact shade of the trichomes for your own personal preference. Try early, late and on time...like I said, different strains will also affect that decision. And here is my 3¢ about "flushing".....it's a lie. I have tried to isolate it as much as possible. Whatever I do, there is no difference. If you're plants are doing good, don't fuck em up by denying them nooots in the most critical time. Try an experiment. Do some flushing if you must, but also, do the opposite with a pair of twins. Flush one and just keep trucking with the other like it's any other day. Try em side by side and post your results. That's what I think about "flushing". Use good nutes and you will be fine.

Thanks @Dr.Bubbles appreciate the compliments. I’ve got a Loupe now and been keeping an eye on things. I think I’ll do just that and do a bit experimenting. That’s the way I’ll find out what’s best for myself

I definitely have about 3 different phenos out of the 6 girls. Although their different phenos, they all seem to ooze quality genetics though. I also kept the 7th plant which was a Runt. It’s been in the corner of the room all through the grow and actually has a half decent amount of flower on it.

In regards to Mephisto I ordered one of each of their new Artisinals on 4/20. Fugue State, Strawberry Nuggets, Forum Stomper and Orange Diesel. They sent me 2 seeds of each instead of one and I also got 5 free Forgotten Cookies seeds too. Fantastic service and I heard nothing but good reports about their genetics!! Really can’t wait to give them a go!!
