I have trouble getting good images, too. I'm trying to get a new scope w/camera & hopefully will get closer-up photos. These are looking good. a little hard to tell how clear/cloudy they are, but since you can see better than I can in the photos, if they are about 80% cloudy, then they're ready. I don't see any amber, and once the amber starts, then you know it's time because the more amber you get, the more degraded the THC gets.....or, if you believe the other thoughts on the subject, the more amber, the more CBD's, but I think that one has been debunked 
, so I've been going with the mostly cloudy. Good luck! We just chopped down our first one yesterday. It got stressed somehow and matured about 2-4 weeks ahead of all the rest. Some even still have white pistils standing up and this one was totally ready. Go figure!

They look good. You must have gotten the bud rot. I had problems with it last year. Also had mold. Boy, did it smell bad. I just harvested my first White Widow. It's all cut & dried. I only got 2.3 oz after it was dry ... (I usually get 3+oz per plant. this one didn't get to grow into itself all the way and was very sparse...wondering about your 588gms, though. That's 20 oz.....one plant?????hmmmm) Is that right?
I accidentally waited too long to get it down when it was drying. Watched a video about the stems snapping, and even though I knew better, I waited because the stems bent without anywhere near snapping. You're supposed to get them before they snap, but just before. I put the hygrometer in the first jar and it was only 51% humidity right off. So, this plant won't get to cure. Next time I'll know what the stems are supposed to feel like. I already knew before I watched the stupid video.......
. I like to let them cure properly.
I smoked the new plant last night, and what a difference!!!!!!!! I had been smoking year-old, what had been moldy, spider mite infested, etc bud. This was total heaven
. It was smoooooooth and so nice. I was almost out of the other. So glad a plant was ready early. Had a bad year last year, and didn't have much----- have to have enough for hash to sleep! if nothing else......also need tincture for nausea...
SO, this year instead of starting with 10 plants, I started with 25 seeds (20 White Widow & 5 Amnesia Haze). Had 18 successful WW & 3 AH. The AH is really spindly. I had one fall down completely in the wind during a storm the other day, and the branches are very thin, so I've got them tied up everywhere. Where they weren't, they were splayed everywhere. They also have very small buds, more yellowing leaves, and just a pain. I won't grow those anymore.
Well, enough rambling. I tend to do that......mix of old age, too much cannabis and an illness that messed with my cognitive functions.
Take care!
Peace

How did the white widow turn out did you take any pics i thought about trying thatThey look good. You must have gotten the bud rot. I had problems with it last year. Also had mold.

I wasn't thinking wet weight. Since I waited too long to take down my WW, it was already dry enough to weigh. Usually I have to wait up to 2 weeks to weigh them all.
I'm growing outside, so the references to the lights go right over my head . I've thought about indoors, but I live in the country in a climate that's just about perfect for growing, so I do pretty well outside. Just have more pests. The plants get taller, too. My tallest two are 7 feet, and some are as short as 4 1/2. Even though they're the same strain, some have really big buds/colas, and others are much smaller and more sparse. I treat them all the same. It's strange. Some are much closer to harvest than others, so that's fine with me. There are only 2 of us to cut & trim, so 21 plants ready at one time is almost scary! I've never had more than 10....oh, I never thought about taking pics of them drying. I'll do that next round.
Sure sounds like what you're doing is working for you! Keep it up. Enjoy your product.
