All this is definitely speculation on my part. If it needs more time than I'll give it more time. Maybe it isn't as far along as I'm guessing. I have it marked on my calendar for august 6th to chop down but that was me pushing back about three weeks as a precaution. So I'll just go with early august.
I’d mark oct based on what it looks like. When was The first time they showed pistils when you flipped?

They're autos. And they started shooting pistols around the end of the second week of june. They came out of the dirt around the 28th of may. They're an 8 week flower plant so they're Actually 8 weeks old. For some reason earlier in the post I was set on them being about 11 weeks. My mistake

EDIT -- note that mine are still throwing white pistils, but are starting to fatten.
Look at other journals - like I said, I'm (edit) a week ahead of you, and still have weeks to go:

I'm not specifying a date but rather a specific time frame. Its definitely not done yet. My timing was pretty spot on with my last grow but were a different strain. We'll see how it goes

This is the second week of July - that's 4 weeks of flowering.

Like Dank said above - don't be so fixated on the week count. The plants will be ready when the plants are ready - your calendar won't rush or slow them down.

I was gonna say you should start a surfing thread. But I see you did with the Salty Crew. You need to add those videos. That shit is sweet.

Update this bitch, lol.

I only bought autos and even when I gave them almost twenty hours of light they still flipped straight to flower. The only reason I cut back on the lights was because it was a too hot. I'm sure they'll end up fine by the time they're ready.

Autos need 24 hrs to get the most out of them. You need.to figure out how to keep.the room.cooled as well. The genetics play a big roll as well so keep that in mind.

Well one thing I know for sure is 24 hours straight would be a little over kill in my opinion. I don't have the equipment to do that for my plants. If I'm going to run a 24 hour light cycle of need a more consistent supply of c02 which I don't have. Leaving the lights on 24 hours at a time I feel like it would stress the plants too much.

If you have a couple of weeks left mine must have been needed To be chopped 3 weeks ago lol.

(Mine still aren’t ready by the way lol)

You have along way to go.

and it’s possibly never gonna finish properly with the tiny amount of leaves you have left on that plant.

You don't need to worry with co2. You have other issues to deal with. Co2 isupplementation great if you've got everything perfect then it aids in the end. Ambient co2 levels are fine for your grow. 24hrs of light isn't overkill for your plants.it would honestly help. Autos like 24 hrs of light.

I'll see how it ends up. The last grow I had was with just a 100 watt fluorescent t5 and I got almost an oz dry off both plants. And I only vegged for three weeks. I'm sure it'll end up better than you guys expect
