    Default When to harvest

    I lost the bit of paper that told me the seed's flowering time, so I'm not sure when to harvest.

    I've been checking the trichomes and most of them are milky, but I noticed today some have already gone brown.

    So should I still flush for 2 weeks, or would you recommend harvesting early? I didn't use much feed but I have been feeding them up until now.

    I also have the problem that we're going away for a week in 3 weeks. So I won't be able to open and close the jars as I did last time. What would you recommend? Last time I went away for a bit but it was already 2 weeks into curing so I just put rice in the jars and that was fine.

    Hoping to get someone's advice! Thank you

    When 40 percent have darkened and curled they are ready for Harvest or Harvest when 50-70% of hairs have darkened for highest levels of THC or Harvest when 70-90% of hairs have darkened for a more calming,anti-anxiety effect that's harvest time if your going on hols just do it early

    I harvest when 30-50% of the trichs have gone amber. I stagger my harvests, so I tend to get early, perfect, and a little late. Lol

    As far as not being able to burp your jars, try Boveda packs. I use them in CVaults, but they'll probably work just as well in a mason jar.

    A jewelers loupe my friends! Judge when the resin glands are cloudy. A little less or a little more cloudy depending on your desired effects. I have yet to get one so I can't really give a picture example
