The million dollar question every noob has that ever gets on this site! These are from a Strawberry Nuggets x Forum Stomper. The calyx are super swollen and almost look like foxtails. Would have included pictures of the calyx, but the battery died me and is charging. Also, there is a bit of amber trichomes on a some of the sugar leaves if that helps...

What do you think? A week? Two weeks?

Thanks and hope everyone is having a (inter)stellar day!!!

Plants ripen at different speeds so time in days is irrelevant. You are at the stage where just like you did today you should check every day. you know you are going to anyway

. Those look mostly clear to some cloudy to me. When to harvest can be a different degree of ripeness depending on what you want from your weed. When the trichome are nearly all cloudy the harvest window opens:

Some clear mostly all cloudy = a cerebral, racy high.

All cloudy with 20% amber = a balance mind/body high

All Cloudy with 40% amber = sleepy time/couch lock buzz

All Cloudy with 50% plus amber = over ripe. not useful for a buzz.

Yet some different cannabinoids that may be desirable will become more dominant in a completely ripe state.

This is how I gauge my buzz you're mileage may vary.

Guilty as charged! Definitely been a stage 5 hoverer around "the Precious" the last couple of days. 20% it is! Was hoping for a ball park figure, but "the first rule is...there ain't no rules!"

Thanks!!!
