Yes, its the same old nagging question: When?

I have 3 Beautiful Barneys Farm Little Cheese Autoflowers on their 65th day as shown in the picture. Healthy as you can imagine. They are as green and hardy as could be. Flowers and Colas and Callyxes everywhere. But the Buds seem so immature. (Soft) And the long, white, spidery Calyxes that look like Pistils give an overall youthful appearance. (see the 2nd foto) The Trichomes seem clear, when I can find them among the spidery Callyxes. Everything is clear and white everywhere. The accompanying leaves are covered with what I think is pollen. I would let them just go on, to 80 if it pleases her, as suggested by some members of this community.
Problem is 2 MDanzig Sour 60s are waiting. (Seen in frontof 1st pic, named Hempy Buckets 1 & 2.) There are only 2 because the grow tent is 18 x 32 and is more made for 2 Autos not 3. The light is a 400 watt HPS.

Not ready for Harvest. What Do I do.:toke:
 
This question comes up a lot and has been covered many times. Most wait for amber trics but not all autos show amber. I like to wait till all the primary and secondary fan leaves have yellowed and died off and the bud leaves are starting to yellow. By then all the trics should be cloudy. Depending on the strain that could be between 10-12 weeks. You could take them early to make room for your other plants but you will sacrifice some yield. I've seen significant bud growth in the last 2-3 weeks.
 
I don't see any pics but it definitely does sound early if you're not seeing any browning pistils or yellow fan leaves. When was the last time you gave them nutes?

What you're seeing on the sugar leaves is more trichomes, not pollen (at least let's hope so). That's why we save those leaves and use them for making hash or edibles. They're a bit harsh to smoke, but still have lots of THC. :smoke:
 
pics are not showing or i just can't see them,but it does sound like the need to go abit long.wish i could see pics would help out alot more.:peace:
