Harvest This?

[MrRoot]

So im back at my buddies, checking things out.

His plants are kinda scraggly, but healthy.

No idea the strain... any ideas?

 

He wants to cut them down, like yesterday.

I told him to wait another few days/ week until at least 50% hairs are brown.

 

He wants 'second opinion'.

 

So.. whats your opinion?

No not yet that looks like a long running Sativa not enough brown hairs does he have a eye loop or microscope? If so look at the trichomes I can guarantee they are still completely clear if I had to guestimate its around day 50 of a 90 day strain its way too early to harvest.

Already went down that road and it was a negative on the zoom zoom.

 

He said something about checking with neighbors.

 

Thanks for the validation on the brown hairs.  Would you agree 50% is a good number?

 

He is saying they havent changed colors at all in a week.

I typically harvest between 75-85% red hairs, depending upon the strain.

 

I would not cut mine down earlier than 70% unless that is a personal preference for a more uppity, low yielding, weak strain.

looks too early to cut to me. you could cut//dry/test a bud.

hairs can turn brown even on unripened flowers, follow the trichome color.

 

I like mine at the moment I see a degraded amber trichome.

how many days flowering ?

From the pics it looks like another month. JMO

I used to hear 90% red hairs.

hope this helps.

don't forget to clone, she might be a gem

yeah, have your friend dry a small bud or part of a bud and see if he likes it young like that

[MrRoot]

he says he doesnt know how long its been

I tried to clone it for him about a month ago, and he said he went to flower after that.  The clones didnt root. (even used the 'good hormone' the shop told me)

They stayed alive, but never grew, and after 3 weeks i checked, and no roots.   *scratch head*.

 

So, now its in flower.... never had any luck getting one (clone) to revert back to veg.
