Anyone have experience with Abusive OG?

I was just wondering how long you can let this strain flower for? Everything I have seen online says about 9 weeks... although I've seen a couple other people say you can let it go for like 85 days.... I am passed 9 weeks now (65 days) And I'm not really seeing any amber trichomes. I still see mostly clear, some opaque. The pistils on the plants in lower light are mostly, red the ones directly under the light are still mostly white. But as far as the trichomes go they all still seem to be mostly clear. Is it normal for plants to go longer than strain reviews and such say they should, or is it more likely that I don't have the strain I think i do?

I dont have experience with this strain, but just listen to the plant, sounds like she is not ready, u wanna see milky thrics, with the hairs turning brown and receding some

Can I get a more specific answer than that from someone? This doesn't really help me with when I should start my 48 hour dark period or when I should stop flushing... Most of the hairs on a couple of the plants are brown, but the trichs still kinda look clear and glossy. It's sorta tough to tell though as it hard to get a still view at 60x
 
ok keep this in mind. the buds will ripen and fatten out from the bottom to the top. you will notice that your nugs have hardened in the lower region. once that has happened all the way through to the top, you will want to flush one last time, wait a few days for the last flush to dry. then harvest. otherwise you will pick too early and the buds that were swollen, will shrink up and shrivel like the leaves. in some instances certain strains can take longer than normal to ripen, depending on if there was a variable to stunt its growth.so be patient because you dont want to prematurely harvest!

k, its just confusing cuz the hairs look ripe, brown and shriveled. But the trichomes are definitely still like 90% clear I've checked a bunch of different lower inner nugs. I'm just worried that I'll let it go too long and it will be less potent or whatever happens... on that subject, how do you know you have let it go to long?

Abusive cut is done in 56 to 63 days if I'm not mistaken. I just acquired one myself hoping it's the real deal
