My guess would be atleast another 27 days since all the hairs are white( only a few orange ones) but most likey longer...be patient and you will be glad u did...check the tric's...harvest when they are all cloudy and 25-50% amber...you will be happy u waited even tho its ur first time and it will seem like forever....we have all been there lol

Forgot to mention this but if your not already starting to add molasses....start within the next few weeks....it will increase your yield by about 25%

i agree with shabang, def got a while to go. what temp of light are you using? (i.e. : 5000K, 6500K, 2700K). For flowering you should be using 2700K(Soft white). i can't really tell whats in the back but the front look like 5000, or 6500. It will help to change them to 2700K along with adding molasses. If you can find i like blackstrap seemed to work good for me last year and i plan to use it this year when they are ready.

Molasses is mixed 1 tsp. per gallon of water. I usually pour it on the spoon and use hot water to "wash" it off the spoon, and into your watering container. From there I top off with cold water. I'd do some reading about the use of molasses before you use it, and get an idea of what it does and how it helps, rather than trusting a strangers advice (No disrespect). Also with the bulbs, MY OPINION would be to have a mixture of 2700k and 6500k. You want more 6500k for vegetative growth and more 2700k for flowering.

well put simplysmoke, a mixture of the 2 or 3 light temps will get you closer to natural sun light. I have 4 different temps, 5000K x 4, 6000K x 2, 6500K x 4, 2700K x 2. I just started a little over a week ago. I didn't get all those different ones for any particular reason, wanted to see if i could notice a difference with different manufactures and just decided to use what I bought instead of buying all new again. I have a journal called "3rd go around indoor soil with CFL's" there is a pic of my light if anyone wants to check it out. Guhman there are a lot of very knowledgable people on here that are more than willing to share what has or is working for them. Good luck, you are in good hands here at RIU.

First off yes i would defiantly keep adding nutes since you have 4+ weeks left of flowering

Second, i use molasses at the rate of 1 Tablespoon per gallon...so if u were gonna mix up 5 gallons of water/nutes mix 5 Tablespoons of molasses in a normal water bottle, fill with water and shake until dissolved then put it in your bucket with nutes and top off with cold water....dont forget to ph the mix before giving to your girls.

And lastly, you can defiantly harvest buds that are ripe and leave others that still need more time but in my experience the top bud will finish first since they receive the most light.
