Help for first harvest please.

Long story short with no where near the right conditions and lighting I've gotten my first lady to flower. It is from a Canuk White Widow Fem seed. I'm new at this so please don't beat me up too much lol, but I honestly forgot to make note of when flowering started and I'm stuck trying to figure out harvest. Here is best magnified pic of trichomes I could get, and frankly I'm unsure what I'm looking at. I would appreciate any help. Thanks!

Hey there. Could u happen to have any more photos? Atleast of the whole plant. Be great to take her out of the grow space and take a pic in good ol white lighting. Awesome you got close ups could u do the same? What you should be looking at are all the clear, milky or amber mushroom head looking trichomes on the bud part of flower and not the crystal coated sugar leaves. The trichomes on the bud (swollen calyxs) gives amore accurate determination of when she is ripe and stoney. Everyone has their own opinion on ripeness and when to harvest.

I don't have more pics currently, but I think I understand what you're saying about finding the ones on the bud not the sugar leaves. I will try and get a better look tomorrow. I actually hesitate to post whole plant bc well lets just say ya gotta start learning somewhere lol. Appreciate the reply.

No problem. I do see some ligther pistil hairs sticking out could be 13-18 more days...could be 25.. Just a guesstimate

I put it at two weeks so sounds like we have same(ish) time frame idea. Good enough for me for now! Thx again!

Is your plants really tall and spaced out and you r using cfl bulbs? Only ask cuz shyt you growing! Not many are or atleast should. But you made it to flower and close to harvest! You got something to be proud of. Aint no shame in the game brotha!

Thx man believe it or not due to some unforseen bs that poor girl is being grown in shitty back yard dirt with 3 25 watt cfl and a LED panel I honestly forget the watts but 2000 lumens give or take blue red green I believe. Appreciate the compliment man. Going full HPS and grow tent and all the trmings in few months just sorta practicing. Oh shit forgot to answer your question. No she's short I mean uber short on purpose. About 20 inches.

No one can tell from that pic. Get a whole ant pic and a bud pic. In natural light.

are you rocking a iPhone Juan....that picture looks like it came off the front cam from a laptop in 2010 lol

Juan?? I'm lost lol. The pic is poop I know but it's from an app on my phone that magnifies and that was clearest I could get it. Sorry!

Just take a whole plant pic and a pic of a bud without getting super close. In natural or white light.

That's the only way to get an accurate answer.

Tricomes are not the end all. The pistils (hairs) need to mostly changed color. They pistils need to lay flat and start to receed into the calyx. When that happens the calyxes will swell.

At that time start to look at tricomes.

Ok. It doesn't matter if it looks rough. I've messed up. I've shown the pics also.

Did you chop it already?

Not gonna chop for about a week or so yet. Thing is I really butchered her when trimming (hey I'm learning lol) it's sort of a micro grow limited space. Is there a way I could share a pic privately instead of posting?
