trichomes and pistils

[Bud4Bud]

Hey, just a few questions about harvest time etc for first time DWC grow.

I have the Black Widow strain here and about week 5 of 12/12 lighting schedule and flowering.

Just interested in people’s thoughts on good harvest time w/ picking right time on trichome, pistil colour, smell and size.

If it's Mr Nice's (Shantibaba) seeds then I'd just go by their flowering times. Looks like it might go for quite a while yet (5 weeks atleast). When a good bunch of the pistils recede back then it's a good sign it's close. Trichome colour is more of a personal preference so that's up to you
