How do I know when to harvest my corn?
Online Answer
At harvest time, the silk turns brown, but the husks are still green. Each stalk should have at least one ear near the top. When conditions are right, you may get another ear lower down on the stalk.

Well-Known Member. The trichromes will continue to mature hence why most say harvest at 10% amber. I believe the plant is still alive for 2-3,days after chop, at least marginally, but do not qoute me on that. If you let it dry out it will make it dry hang quicker but you don't want quicker, you want a nice slow dry..
