Ruby, nuggs is right about the roots being able to stretch out and this made the plants bigger.
Strangely, the only sativa I have growing is, AK47 and she is further along than my 3 remaining indica's.
Mr Sunshine is right, Purple OG is what I bought and I'm sure that is who she is, an indica. Bubba Kush and PUrkle, indica's. It's crazy at my house....everything is backwards like in Alice in Wonderland.

it's because they are hybrids. indica sativa crosses can lean either way at finish.

Why, thank you, nuggs, that is good to know. These last 4, my best plants, are teaching me patience. :-)

something that will help you decide if you're ready to cut is clip a bud let it dry 4-5 days and try it. If it not mature you will taste it. hence never chopping too soon. plus you get another 4-5 days to ripen. nothing worse than cutting too soon. that's what I'd do with your AK47. But it's ready now IMO:hump:
 
@nuggs i ran a few strains from the getaway line this year. Stumbleweed came out super frosty with dense buds spaced apart which is good for mold prevention. Medium yield. The sea warp grew almost the same as the stumbleweed except there was no branching. Just long 2 foot colas. Medium to heavy yield. Both of these strains responded well to training and topping.

Seahash is my favorite. Fat buds w/ heavy yield. Spicy/hash pheno, sea warp pheno, and (my favorite) blueberry pheno. Top shelf.

I think I'll do what you would do, take a sample bud and dry it and try it.
I'm chicken to cut it. I don't want to be premature with my 4 best one's.

I just checked and I found poison warp (green poison x seawarp) sea hash and money maker.
 
Been fun playing with you all this year.
i have my last plant hanging before trimming.
This year was good enough and we were able to choose strains that worked well in our environment.
Next year we will definatly use light deprovation to finish earlier.
Good luck to you all.
Ill be watching.

I need to be there one day it sounds like my kinda world.
I realize the strawberry blue I have in the 15 gallon should be transplanted if need to be to a 45 or 60 before flower but im not really looking at yield on that one as I would be happy with anything from 2-6 oz providing its quality.

smaller pots make it root bound. they stretch their roots and grow more with larger pots. Ruby is for sure right about the sativa's taking longer. you are right on time sam. it's not nov. yet. talk to GB about the ak47. I've never grown it but I think he cut his already. Nuggs

nuggs if I left the SB go all the way only in a 15 gallon smart pot it wont get rootbound is that right being the sort of pot its in?im not looking for yield in that one as I have one in a huge hole as well

In my opinion when the roots run out of room the plant won't get much bigger.
it thinks it's getting to the end of it's life because it can't grow. the roots are the most important thing to a healthy plant.
it will grow as wide as the roots can grow out. the only thing the smart pot has going that's better than plastic is the air to the roots and drainage. I would replant into a bigger pot to keep the plant healthier so it can produce bigger healthier. then dig that hole out and put good soil in it too. cut the bottom of the pot out set it on the hole so the roots can dig in.
