How to determine harvest with Cannabis plant with seeds
    #25208164 -

So I'm having trouble deciding when to chop down my plants. They have been in flowering lighting since March 1st. I have 1 plant that seems to be latest in the flowering stages. It has about 10% amber trichomes and 80+% cloudy some clear. I'm worried about these seeds not being mature when I cut down the plant and not being viable. My greenhouse is also now getting close to 14 hours of daylight and would hate for my other plants to hermi. I am able to dig thru the nugs and find some mature seeds, however many of the seeds still seem green. Huge thanks for your guy's help. Always coming back for advice from the experienced and educated.

You can always pick a calyx or two and take a look at the seeds to see if they're mature.
If the seeds are dark and tiger-striped, and do not crush between 2 fingers easily you should be good. With seeded runs it's always a good idea to go a couple weeks longer than you usually would when growing for buds.

I wouldn't worry about them turning hermy at this stage, the pistils have already been pollinated anyway.

Pinch some the lowest, and if they are hard. the tops are certain to be done. maybe a few duds somewhere, but thats natural.

How far into flowering was it when was it pollinated?

You could pick a bud and check the seeds nearest the core. They've had the longest to develop.

Green seed generally isn't ready however will sometimes mature/brown really quickly while drying.

Lately I've been judging my harvests mostly off the general ripeness of the entire plant not just trichomes but where the calyxes are in their growing stages since they expand in size mostly in the late stages.


When I have seed my judgement of ripeness has the added factor of when the seed is ripe.

The harvests are still so good I really don't think judging trichomes improves much I aim for later stage plants for higher yield.

They have been with males since day 1, and I removed them about 8 weeks into flowering. All of them were pollinated as I wanted for seeds.

I feel as if I'm close. The seeds themselves had hairs coming from an end and the hair is brown and fall off when touched. I guess it won't hurt if I just leave her and watch the seeds.

They will continue development after you harvest as they hang dry. If it's been with males it's whole life, you should have more than enough viable seeds.

If you pollinated everything you may as well wait until they are pretty close so they will for sure mature brown instead of light green/white seed that are easily popped. The bud will be subpar in amount/quality anyways and no reason to grow for seed and get only some seed. Also i'd prefer to have the seed healthy on the plant if possible rather than some kind of premature baby with minor defects or slow growth. I think its just a good practice to ripen fully if not almost fully on the plant.

What strain is that by the way, and what did you cross it with?
The bud structure and colour looks a lot like the 707 Truthband I ran last session.

Wish I knew the strain, I bred the plants with 3 males in the greenhouse. CBD Yummy, F1 Lemon O.G., and a F1 Black Cream. Just had something I liked so I bred them.

Cut the lowest nug, and this is what I got from her. 13 seeds, 10 looking mature and 3 light. However they do have the tiger stripes and have some brown on them.

How long do they need to dry to germinate? I've taken some one off the plant and went straight in the ground and got nothing.

I'd let them dry two weeks to a month before planting, I'm a little overly cautious because I've had the same experience as you, and with a little time they started to germinate.

Those light ones were possibly old enough to mature on the plant if you dont take the seeds out until after drying like you normally would until jarring.

Just cut a small branch off, will dry it and see if there is a higher mature ratio. I will let the seeds sit for some time, mature seeds are looking very nice.
