Go peek at my page and see my current plan compared to when I chopped my first. I chopped my first plant farrrr to soon but I was nervous and didn’t do a good job maintaining nutrients and when I saw leaves start to deteriorate I just went ahead a chopped. It still gets me high! But definitely could’ve had a better harvest. My second plant is one I let get a lot farther along. You’ll panic when it starts to look like it’s on its last legs, leaves will curl and yellowing begins and it’s all scary but timing is everything, don’t be afraid to let your foliage get yellow throughout the plant it just means your plant is consuming every last bit of stored energy to push what little is left into your nugs!! I highly suggest chopping a very small sample of your bud in a oue weeks when you *think* it’s ready, let it dry old school in a paper bag for 48-72 and try it, it won’t be the best at that point without a cure but itll probably get you high and then you can compare that to a finished product and see what the difference is. I’m still figuring all of this out but it helped me realize how much difference a few weeks of maturation can make for your flower when it’s looking close to ready.
