A kid, been growing for 17 years with a small break, been off here for 9 years. Grown various runs of critical and northern lights and really wanted to help this person out. They are eager and I remember that feeling and waiting after the advertised times it stresses one out. I'm pretty certain these plants will be done by week ten is up ! Of course they are done when they are done that is what my microscope is for ! Experience tells me they will be done by end of week ten , that's 2 weeks, I asked this new eager grower to put up pics in a week so we can see them and I'd of asked if they would put Some up a few days after that too so I could see them and advise.

So you have the exact lights, environment etc?

By the info you’re giving it sounds like you’ve never grown a day in your life to be honest.

Your plants have 3-5 weeks left. They will not be properly ripe sooner then that I'm sorry.

Sorry but I'm gonna call bullshit on this. I've been growing since 05, and have thousands of plants under my belt from MANY different strains. I have NEVER seen a plant go from fully covered in white stigma to ripe in under 2 weeks let alone one. You clearly are a product of the harvest early craze that breeders and commercial growers push. Try letting your plants actually ripen some time and you'll be surprised how much more they have to offer in both yield, and quality.

I'll leave the OP this info drop as well!

Before even thinking about harvesting take a look at this and see if your plant is actually showing you ALL these signs.


The signs of ripeness are pretty standard.

First a few of the pistils begin turning color and start receding. Your plant is just starting to ripen. Depending on the strain you could still have two months to go. We're just starting this journey.

Two to four weeks later you'll notice that most of the pistils(>80%) have now changed color and curled back into the bud. It's frosty, way bigger than it was a few weeks ago, and smells dank! It's time, right? Not a chance killer. Patience is a virtue

Over the next 2-3 weeks it doesn't look much different, maybe a little more swelling in the calyxes, and the rest of the pistils change over, but the stems are starting to bend under the weight of the buds. These ladies are putting on weight and now the buds are doing their final ripening.

Now you can begin looking at trichomes, on the calyx, not the leaves, and harvest according to your preference. When looking at trichomes it’s essential to look at them from the side. The bulbous heads can magnify the opaque stalk under it. Looking from the side allows you to more accurately see the condition of the resin in the trichome head.

There is still no rush to harvest, the window just opened, and you have a couple weeks before you MIGHT start having to think about it possibly beginning to get too ripe. It takes WEEKS for plants to mature not days.

It is very easy to harvest a plant to early. It is very hard to harvest a plant to late. I’ve never seen someone accidentally wait too long.
