Another harvest advice question (sorry) - 1st grow

Would love some advice as I think this auto white widow is ready to harvest. I’m almost through week 11 now and starting to see some amber triochomes on some of my buds, but not all. I do see alot of brown pistles so I wanted to make sure I got some advice. Any guidance is appreciated!

(I did end up with what appears to be a slight ph issue based on the brown leaves, not sure if that impacts what I’m seeing either)

Here is a pretty good guide, same one I started with. Hasn’t done me wrong yet. When exactly will depend.on what you want out of your smoke. Trichomes are a way better guide then pistols…

just remember that you want to see trichomes on the bud, not on the leaves as they turn sooner.

By zooming in on your above picture, I would say you’re definitely in the window for harvest. From that ONE picture I would GUESS That you were close to maximum potency.BUT this is only a guess from one picture. Ultimately it is up to you… looking good…:+1:t3::+1:t3::v:t3:

Looks ready !! ?? an old saying: "When you thing it’s ready give it 1-2 more weeks. Generally a hybrid will not go more that 12 weeks before it has dimishing affects YOU will not get all trichomes to totaly trun to cloudy to amber if you can get a 75% + amber is good ( you will always have some clear, ect) Harvesting is a personal issues some like high amounts of thc while other want a more “rounded taste” (longer ripping = greater the terpenes (affects))
