So I have two (supposedly) high-CBD strains, CDB Blue Shark and CBD Critical Cure which are coming up to their havest windows (according to the breeder).
The Blue Shark is at day 60 of 60-70:
And the Critical Cure is at day 52 of 60-65:
As you can see, all of the pistals are still white. Trichomes in both are clear to milky, with amber just starting (mainly on the stalks).
I did a smoke test last night and here's what I thought:
Critical Cure gives a nice clear stone, without much in the way of vision changes. Still very functional.
The Blue Shark (which is at 60 days of 60-70) made me heavier and sleepier, and as it wore off my jaw was quite uncomfortable (not sure if I'd been grinding or something?). Couldn't sleep with that uncomfortableness so vaped some of Afghan Kush that I harvested last week and the pain went away instantly....
These plants are being used for my GF in a daytime oil so I don't really want them to be too sedative.
I've researched a fair bit about harvest times and read on a document from the people who make the Sativex spray (GW pharmaceuticals) that their plants either had a constant CBD level through-out flowering, or diminished over the flowering weeks...
So, I'm thinking that if I harvest these girls now, even though the pistals haven't changed color, then it should be fine for my purposes. Seems if I leave them any longer (especially the BS), then they might get too sedative...
Any thoughts would be appreciated
