PaPaYa Chopping Time?

[JAD420]

So these ladies just finished day 67 of flowering and I am looking for opinions on when to chop. As I inspect trichs they seem mostly cloudy with a bit of amber. I can't say I'm at expert at inspecting trichs hence seeking some advice.

This is Nirvana's Papaya from seed second batch of clones on this run. I'm in a 4x8 tent with two 3x3 flood trays each with its own reserve. Using Advanced nutrients with the ph perfect and big bud during weeks 2-4. Each plant is in its own rockwool but I had to add pebbles as roots were being exposed to light. Each tray has 2 LED's drawing actual 324 watts each.

I have a million pictures if people want to see more. I imagine its not easy to tell from a picture but general guidance is most helpful.

it looks very nice.. id say from the look of the hairs and the swelling that it is probably fine to chop.. mostly cloudy with some amber is fine depending on personal preference really.
have you been flushing it/them?

Yes I started flushing a week ago.

Looks really good when did you buy the seeds...I grew this way back had a rotten fruit stinker went 70 days if I remember correctly but most were finished by 9weeks... those look damn close if not ready... there was a saying "when Ya think they done givem one more week" for new growers that info is priceless...

YES!!! I bought the seeds back in November and my first run produced just above garbage. I made too many errors and chopped according to nirvana's time. I'm running a mother now who truly wants to bush out. I so hesitant to chop now and my buddy keeps saying wait.....waiting isn't easy but an extra two weeks on these i figure its gotta be ready right?

Its weird how breeders time for harvest always seems to be very optimistic, more or less all strains i have grown have required more time than advertised by breeders to finish flowering properly. I think you could wait a week or so with cutting em down.
