What does this mean?I agree that they are close to finished. I was originally going to say give them a week or so, but then I got sidetracked by the "chop them while the hairs are still white" comment.

It first part means I would harvest them in about a week or so. The second part means the grower with 4 decades of experience gave goofy advice which distracted me.What does this mean?
No one gives a flying fuck how long you have grown.
But you know what? That explains a ton. You are mentally stuck back in the day where they thought they knew what they were doing.
They weren't doing it right and from the sound of it neither
Wow, an angry man.No one gives a flying fuck how long you have grown.

On Sunday it looked like 3 weeks, they don’t look much closer. I’d say give at least 2 weeks before asking again.What do you think?

Keep going - plant is running show - it is done when it is done.What do you think?

I'm trying to learn those other indicators.Keep going - plant is running show - it is done when it is done.
‘Regardless of breeder hype or calendars. Take the consensus about that plant - All of the posters you list including myself agree to let it play out.
‘Your decision to cut nutes was wrong however keep her fed and she will harden off and ripen. New pistil growth at bud apex still happens ( light ) but the overall maturity of buds will dictate chop time ( pistil recede / color off )
Over time “ looking at triches “ will not be the sole indicator of maturity. None of that ambering nonsense. No flushing or other BS.
With experience you won’t even “ scope “ the plant anymore as other ripening indicators will alert you when ready.
It is far too easy to pull plant early , than too pull “ too late “.
How do I delete someone else's comment?A simple loupe and a trich exam will tell you when to cut - not pistil color. I'm not sure why everyone thinks pistil color indicates maturity - not always. I have had plenty plants ready to harvest but with white / lighter colored pistils and no red/orange/brown/darker colored ones. If you've mostly cloudy trichs and a few amber ones and you're ready to cut. If you've many clear trichs, best to wait a few days and reassess once more.
If I had the plants in the attached photos, I would consider cutting sometime within the week.
The reason people are using pistils as an indicator is because some plants trichomes will never turn Amber.A simple loupe and a trich exam will tell you when to cut - not pistil color.

I've had plants with pistils that haven't changed color. I've yet to have plants that haven't had clouded trichs.The reason people are using pistils as an indicator is because some plants trichomes will never turn Amber.
precursors
pistils receded
buds look plump
Buds take on an over all more golden colour
Calyx begin to “crown” or “point”
Then if you check trichomes this is the time to check them.
Thats a new one.I've had plants with pistils that haven't changed color. I've yet to have plants that haven't had clouded trichs.
If you don’t wait long enough before cutting them down of course they won’t change color.I've had plants with pistils that haven't changed color. I've yet to have plants that haven't had clouded trichs.
We had a member here, for a long time, that was breeding plants that were chosen because they exhibited very early amber trich's. That didnt mean they were done any quicker, just had amber early on. Trich's are a very poor indicator.I've had plants with pistils that haven't changed color. I've yet to have plants that haven't had clouded trichs.
I've just harvested a full table and the GDP had white pistils on a 10 week flower, other strains on the table had orange/darker pistils.We had a member here, for a long time, that was breeding plants that were chosen because they exhibited very early amber trich's.

You're funny, however I'm aware of how long flowering cycles are supposed to be.If you don’t wait long enough before cutting them down of course they won’t change color.
