First grow bag seed day 58 ??

So I am on flowering day 58 of my first grow. I have had some issues here and there (inexperience) but I got everything stabilized. I am trying to estimate how much longer I have until harvest. I bought one of those radio shack microscopes (handheld ones) and it looks as though only about 30-50% of the trichomes are milky. What I want to do is harvest one plant when trichomes at least 100% milky and harvest the other two when they are 50% amber (experimenting :weed: ).

So my questions:

1. How much longer will it take to get to 100% milky?
2. How much longer to get to 50% amber?
3. Any idea of yeild (I know its impossible to tell but I like asking)?
4. Does it matter that these plants have NO oder to them?


Setup:
Storage closet (48"x20"x70")
120mm PC fan for exhaust
4" intake hole
400w HPS
One plant is 22" the other two are 20"
They are in 8" walmart pots
Temps w/lights 80-82 without 75, Humidity 20-50%

1 and 2 it depends on the strain and lotrs of other factors

3 yeild once again it al depends on when u cut it.....from the looks now

your gonna pull a lil over an ounce maybe per palnt
 
nice, i dont got a hood for mine yet it didnt come with one i got it on sale. How do you keep your temps down so well?
 
medimariuser your answer sounds dead on. its my exact guess to if you want guesses. i have about 10 small to med grows experience. def close to his suggestion. Whatever it is wet its 25% dry. some say 50 but that is sticky as hell. as in couldn't be sold. Decent selling dryness 2.5. You like the scientific terms eh? lol
 
well agreeeeeddd.....dam some shit i grew i was to anxious to smoke i broke it up then iwas juss gonna slide it down the crease in the magazine i used...hmm i couldnt... so before i pushed it down to the inner i flipped the mag upside down and the shit just stayed on the cover THAT WAS SO AWESOME!!!( a lil wet but sooo stickyy makes me proud u know.lol)
 
How many days do you water starve before harvest. Should I start now? Last time I watered them was Sunday and I usually water every 2-3 days (my humidity is like 20% so they eat water).
 
So I harvested on day 63 when 25-50% of the trichomes were amber. Ill post dry weight this weekend when they are done drying.
