Think these will be ripe this week?

Tomorrow is the last day of week 8. My veg tent is getting a little full and I'd love to flip them over to the flowering tent this week, think these might be ripe in time?

2x Wedding cake
1x Conjugal Visit
1x Forbidden Zkittlez

All are indica dominant and said 7-9 weeks flowering.



I Think I'm seeing mostly cloudy with a few amber but my microscope sucks ($15, you get what you pay for).

I still see alot of glass. Another week would surely be of benefit.

I'm with Kalebaiden.

the high from early flower is fun, but I'm am finding out flavors are better developed with a later harvest, not too late tho. lol.

i wait until i think it's ready, then wait i more

I can probably keep my other plants in the veg tent for one week more in exchange for a better harvest.

those buds look great!

first world problems right?! AHH, my plants are too big!!!!

*cries big crocodile tears*

That's a legitimate concern....*sob*

I would say more then a week, 2-3, if I had to in a week, I would cut my lights back a couple hours to help the situation.

If I'm 100% honest with myself I also just want to smoke them already

Cutting back the hours of light to make them ripen faster? I haven't heard of that one

Totally makes sense when I think about it (at least for photo strains), that is a useful trick to have on standby just in case. Given the choice between waiting for better buds or smoking sooner I'll totally take waiting.
It's a medical state so worst case is another dispensary trip.

Will Buds Mature Faster if I Switch From 12/12 to 10/14? | Grow Weed Easy

Certain marijuana strains take 4+ months in the flowering stage under a 12/12 light schedule! You can force them to mature faster by giving them longer night periods.

Hmmm could totally take the extra week or two and top my next run again. Gonna try mainline next time and I could go 16 Cola instead of 8....

10/14, does it work? I’m not sure, I will do it, I’m doing it now at the end of week 11, either way. 100 plus days in the grow, what’s another 14. They look great, will be great smoke.

I have a 8 and 16 top mainline I’m finishing this month, 145 days in. Not sure the space but either 8 or 16 are big bitches..

Week 11? What strains are you running? I've never gone past 9 but all my stuff is indica dominant

I'm running a 4x4x7 tent for flower wall to wall. For the winter I just keep the whole room cold/move my dehumid out of the tent to free up extra space.

I've got 6 plants going in veg, not sure if I will try to fit all 6 in or just the 4 strongest.
