Hello,

Thank you for taking to time to look at my post.

I was wondering how much buds grow in their 8th week? is it a big difference usually?

I have pretty healthy plants. You can see pictures in my journal if you are interested but they are only as of 6 weeks and 3 days.

my plants are 7 weeks and 1 day as of today. They look basically ready to harvest but I feel as though maybe they can go for just a little more growth. I am anxious to crop out. Not like it matters. I have to wait for that shit to dry for like a week anyway

Thank you,

-Sui

IMO they will not get that much noticeably bigger, but they might put on a little more weight as they mature from the inside out.

Its not the size of the plant, but the motion of the ocean. Acknowledging your trichomes is how you determine if they are ready (not size or day count)

thnx. But foreal though. do they gain a significant amount of size in their 8th week of flower? if I harvested now it would be some top shelf shit you maybe pay 220 a zip for in a dispensary. I am not worried about thc content. I am just gonna get rid of all basically immediately anyway.

Thanks again,

Also not the amount of THC but the quality therein. The trichs are ready when the trichs are ready. Your scale seems to have a thumb on it.

I wouldn't cut that down yet. looks like you have a lot of white hairs standing up still. they will turn redish and recede back into the bud . by cutting down now you will sacrifice some weight. they look great tho, just more time

Depends on its genetics hon. Indicas are generally 8 weekers. Any Sativa can go twice that long. Best to read the breeders harvest guide to get a better idea.
There's a window in which you need to harvest. Too soon and you shortchange yourself. Too long and you get crap. Do a little research and think about getting a magnifying glass or usb scope for cheap off amazon or ebay. Good luck.
