At Least Another Week: What Say You Fellow Growers?

[SeniorMoments]

This Afghan Kush / White Widow is at 48 days.
Supposedly 55/60 days Flower time.
Will another week do it ?
There is a bit of amber showing on very top of the bud but mostly clear to milky

You know the old chestnut, "When you think it's done, give it another week"? Just an opinion, but I would give her a little more time.

So true!

Only way to know is to look in a week but she is looking cloudy, nice bud

I'd be running that conversation about what degree of clear, cloudy, and amber would give the best buzz. It's a bit like talking BBQ. I'd certainly smoke that bud, if you dried it right now.

Congrats Senior! Looking good there.

Just in case you haven’t seen this section I’m dropping a link for the Harvest Prep & Curing thread below. Lots of good stuff like bud washing, low & slow curing and Malawi cobs.

It’s in a bag in the fridge right now.

Thanks 013. I have been researching every appropriate thread , journal , comment .
Definitly washing. Probably going low & slow.
The wife agrees we need a frig for the garage.
I have saved mason jars for a year . Hope we fill every damn one of them and have to go buy a bunch more.

Thanks roam. The plants are really looking great. Both AK/WW’ s are far ahead of the others.

You said the trichomes were mostly clear to milky so it would have gotten stronger in another week but it will still smoke nice I bet

Edit I think I just clued in that the single bud was in fridge not plant? lol im baked

Yea , I am doing an experiment . Sacrificing a bud every few days to monitor potency and Trichomes development. Also figuring out best drying procedure.
Broscience at its finest.

Sounds like you are prepped & ready. Totally disagree on the 1 week estimate, I’d say she needs anywhere from 6 to 8 days.

Yup woke up on the smartass side of the bed this AM.

Hey, if I don’t mess with you then who will??

Cheers SM & hope your countdown goes as planned!

Another week for sure. I am hoping that will do it but after 108 days I will wait for optimum before chop.

5 days difference in these two photos.
Trichome development difference is pretty cool.
