Hello people.

First grow going pretty well.. 5 weeks two days into 12/12, got a bagseed sativa slowly getting nice, and a blue hash coming along very fine. Also got a california hash and I don't know whether I should start with the scissors yet...

The trichs on her leaves are 90% cloudy topped with a clearish stem, but can't see any heads at all on the pistils. Also only maybe 5% of pistils are going red.

I'm probably more of a head-high kind of chap, less couch-locky, so think maybe I should harvest now, but these are afghani plants after all (freebies) and maybe they just aint right yet. It's still a week before the earliest advised harvest time (45-50 days, I'm on 37).

Sorry, I couldn't get any decent pics. Should I chop it or what?

They certainly wont be anywhere near ready yet mate, and thats without seeing pics, which we could do with

OK, cheers Owderb. I'll sit on it for a bit.

Under the HPS the camera on my phone goes all stripey I'm afraid. My other camera takes 35mm film still!

Absolute minimum of 2 to 5 weeks left of 12/12 going by what you have said I recon, don’t look at a schedule on paper, let the plants tell you when there ready to harvest, 75% brown pistils, 75% trichomes brownish or milky is the usual rule of thumb on here but I harvest them when I think there ready and not just when 75% trichs/pistils are brown. My mate and I are both growing uk cheese, he harvested his after 50 days, my plants are on day 64 to day but they are having a last ditch growth spurt and so I thought I would let them carry on, my plants will have had at least 15/20 days more 12/12, each to there own, you have to make this decision on your own based on your experience as a grower, there is no other way atm, well not until it’s legal at least and join the uk cannabis school.

Pictures speak a thousand words.

Peace,
