Do these look done to you?

I Swore up and down I wasn't going to be this guy. You know the newbie asking if his plants are done. I however am asking anyway because I want to succeed. They look like the pics on Barney's website, they smell like cheese, The trich's look cloudy/amber to me, I'm just not 100% so I'm asking opinions. Sadly my loupe isn't powerful enough to make up for my shit eyesight. Thanks in advance!

How long has the plant been flowering? Looks at least 3 weeks left to me... Crystals on that are incredible though well done :leaf:

I'd be surprised if there's three week's left, these are auto's at 12 weeks. Thanks for the compliment, Just following all the advice I've found here the gels with what little knowledge of gardening I picked up growing up around a grandmother that grew everything we ate.

Your suggested times on the seeds are just that.
Suggested or expected finishing times, under OPTIMAL conditions.
To me it looks like waiting at least another week, will shorten and darken the hairs, and also let them bulk up more.
You will be happy.

I wouldn't be. 3 weeks is where I would put them as well. How long they've been going is irrelavant, maturity is everything. Those are not mature.

You've been going this long bro, don't ruin it by pulling the trigger too early!!! Good luck.

What strain from Barney's is that? been runnin violator kush for years.

They're little cheese. It is most definitely my intent to keep them going till they're done. So far my only "complaint" with them is that they're a LOT bigger than I was lead to believe they'd get. The smallest is over 2 feet tall. (The vendor told me they'd top out at two feet max). They smell good look good and I have two more that are a couple weeks behind these two (In my estimation). I expect I'll end up with a decent first harvest.

No, I know you were talking for space reasons Im sure.

Hence the quotes around complaint. *grins*
I had really low expectations it being a first grow, having very little idea of what to do and knowing how late it was in the year. I'm glad I went for it. Hard to believe these are outdoors in Ontario.

Nice.
What are your outdoor temps now?
The week of 40 degree weather I had here really slammed the brakes on mine. :(
Today, I didn't even put them outside like I usually do, but have them in the closet under CFL's, figuring any advantage I might have gotten from the sun poking through the clouds would have been negated by the wind and 40 degree weather.

My back deck runs about 70-80 if the sun is out, much cooler if the sun is hiding. I'm running cfl's and a heat lamp at night and when it's cloudy. If the weather get's much cooler I don't know what I'll do, just leave em with the heat lamp and cfl's I guess. They don't seem to be suffering.

What a difference a week makes! I'm absolutely salivating at the sight and smell of these babies. Interested in what another week will bring.
Does this count as bud porn yet?

the buds are too bright and the hairs are too white. what week are you on? id wait two more weeks at least. those long white hairs on top make me think that those buds are still going to get a bit bigger. its worth the wait to get more weight.

Chopped the first two today. Two left to pull. It's been quite a ride, learned a LOT cannot wait for next year! But of course I can't post pics because of the site issues. Pics when it's fixed. Got in good and close with the loupe and then had the GF verify, we achieved about 30% amber. Thanks VERY much for all the advice.

Woot My pictures are working again!
