how much longer...lol

this is where im at, im running out of patience....


how much longer you guys think ? guide on this one says 7-8 weeks, well next sat is 7 weeks....

its hard to say in the yellowish light, but when you see the trichs, turning a milky white, and the wierd looking beige/tan... its time... so like 50% dark white milky 50% beige/tan/gold its time.

Alot of the time, you will want to take the main cola's, and leave the lower branch's/bud sites to ripen

im seeing brown at the mo, but the trichs are still mainly white.....

wait the 7 weeks, you are getting really close... pic 2 and 3 are looking pretty damn good. here is a pretty good little chart, basically, you want get the best "ripe" trich count. Also, as you dry and cure your bud, they will continue to ripen a bit, just an FYI

Bro its not the time to become impatient. Another 3-4 weeks and they will double/triple in size and density and resin on leaves/smell etc.

Wait til all the hairs are receeding into the bud...When it looks ripe pull her...

Im waiting now too. Today is week 8 for me.

A lesson I learned : Last time when I grew this strain it took between 43-53 days. And it was great medicine! This time around I added an additional 600w hps light along with the 1000w MH I already had. The buds are double the size as last time but are taking longer to mature. I just made the first cuts on one plant yesterday. So now Im looking at flower maturation at day 55-??.

What Im getting at is, not to take the "7-8 weeks" that you read so litteraly. Looks like you are approaching the point where new growers get excited and chop them down too early. Wait it out man ! Hold back !! IT WILL BE WORTH IT. Mininum 2 weeks I believe based off your pics.

nice plants!!

Get a pocket microscope at least 30x. Go by the trichomes. Mostly milky white to 50% amber is when you should start your 2 week flush.
