how long ago did you start flowering? it's usually 4-6 weeks veg, 6-8 weeks flower, and then dry and cure

i decided to rip last night as 90% of the fibers were red and the buds haven't gotten any bigger. sorry i haven't got any more pics but i ended up with 26.5gms wet. i will post later what the dried weight is.

now that its all dry i ended up with 6gms of really good bud. it has no smell and a mild taste but boy does it get ya stoned. even though it was a small plant i am still proud and i will definitely give it another go. at the moment a $50 bag is about 3gms locally so i can't complain.

nice grow man and congrats on your harvest. You might want to check out a T5 if your interested in getting better yields but using cfl:-) I have one and love it, took down my HID 400 watt b/c the heat and all the baggage that came with it. Anyway nice grow man.
