So here's an update . It's been 55 days since the lights were flipped .

I know most people don't count the first two weeks is this true ?

Maybe like another month to go ?
Thanks a bunch !

Time from start of flower to finish could be variable if you are flowering a plant from seed versus flowering a mature clone.
When I say "mature clone" I mean it's ready, willing and able to flower. Not all plants people put into flower from seed are at that "ready to flower" stage. That can be a factor in finish times, since the plant started from seed needs to go thru puberty so to speak and that can add time in flower.


There are inexpensive "trichometers" you can buy to help you figure out when to harvest, after a few grows you may be able to look at a plant and tell when it's ready. Until then, you can find these at Amazon under jewelers loupe. Pretty cheap too. Good luck!

Yes the clones were mature before switching
 
I count from the day lights are flipped. It's a definitive point, unlike the start of flower which can vary from plant to plant. IME clones show flower usually withini 8-12 days, seed grown plants usually 15-20 days.

Although I count flower from flipping lights, I still always take note how long it took for flowers to show.

I agree with the responses so far.
Also, an indicator you can look for are the pistils. Yours appear to still be growing and haven't changed color. Even AFTER they turn amber the buds might still produce more. However, when they're all turning amber and no net new growth occurs its a good sign your plant is ripe.
You can get really scientific with a pocket microscope, but I've been relying less and less on that technique. After awhile, you just sort of "know".
