Might find some better estimates in the indoor growing section of this site (this is the political forum). I usually harvest a couple days after 'damn I hope it finishes in time' and right before 'holy shit I'm glad I got it all in because it is a horrible cold wet night'.

That's just a clarifying statement. There are grades in the tint on rose colored glasses: optimist > optimistic > huh what? > pessimistic > pessimist.
I'm optimistic about the future.

New Zealand is one of a small number of jurisdictions – including mainland China, Hong Kong, Taiwan, South Korea, Vietnam, Mongolia, Australia and Fiji – pursuing COVID-19 containment or elimination. Most have had new outbreaks. The exceptions are Taiwan, Mongolia, Fiji and New Zealand.
Australia adopted very similar responses to the pandemic and it is important to note that most states and territories are in the same position as New Zealand. But Victoria and, to a lesser extent, New South Wales are seeing a significant resurgence.
The key difference is that New Zealand committed relatively early to a clearly articulated elimination strategy and pursued it aggressively. An intense lockdown proved highly effective at rapidly extinguishing the virus.

What a horrible grow, starve/burn combo, inhibited flower set, poor air exchange.

Just want to highlight this part again.

Until there is a vaccine, this is how a well governed country will manage it. There is no "return to normal". Probably ever. We are going to have to change our ways. We were not paying proper heed to warnings about potential plagues and today's crisis is a result of that.

During an interview with CNN’s Sanjay Gupta on Wednesday, Anthony Fauci, the nation’s top infectious diseases expert, agreed that the U.S. death rate was one of the highest in the world. He also suggested the U.S. is not doing as well as other countries in handling the disease.
“It is worth reminding people we're not quite 5 percent of the world's population, yet represent 20 to 25 percent of the world's deaths ... that has to be the worst, is it not the worst?” Gupta asked.
“I mean, it is. Quantitatively if you look at it, it is. I mean the numbers don't lie,” Fauci said.
