is that what you normally do? I'm open to hearing your reasoning. Never heard of doing that, though.

If you're growing for you, and you picked them at the time they looked and smelled best to you, then it sounds like you picked em at the right time

Feels good to grow your perfect smoke, doesn't it?

Big J... plant horoscope shows the best harvest time is during 'best flower periods' and the next period when smell will peak is:
Wednesday, February 8 @ 12:00 pm through Friday, February 10 @ 3:00 pm
Alternatively you can harvest at 'best fruit periods', the next is from:
Sunday, February 12 @ 1:00 pm through Wednesday, February 15 @ 8:00 am

SativaBelieva, I could talk to you all day about the phases of the moon and the effect on growth and maturation. I know generations of farmers who go on the moon phases and have it all planned out as to the ideal dates for both planting, vegetative above ground growth, root growth, flower and vegetable maturation etc.
I've noticed that during flowering there are 2-3 days out of the month where the aroma put out by the plants is very pungent. I have been aiming at my Feb 9 harvest per your illuminating post, hoping to harvest right when they peak for the last time.
Peace
Thanks, please send me more info via pm if you have it handy.Thanks fo the info!!
