4-6 weeks to go???!!! Damn dude I’m at 5 weeks into 12/12 as of today I really need to wait that much longer? Past 2 harvest Iv seen amber milky and clear at 6-7 weeks into 12/12, breeders say 8-9 weeks of flower but you know how that is lol

If you're chopping 6-7 weeks into flower that could explain why you haven't hit a pound. Hopefully you aren't checking trichomes on fan leaves...those will show amber trics first but are not indicative of a ready for harvest plant.

If youve been having yield problems i agree with this guy, you have been cutting way to early and missing out on all the weight/better quality bud. Waiting an extra few weeks you probably could have doubled your yield. Flower time is typically what the breeder says +1-3 weeks.

2x optic 1xl cxb 3590 cons driven at 100w each and 1x mars hydro tsl2000 300w pulled from wall the mars hydro has better growth but the optic buds are literally 2x bigger 2x denser and 2x more resinous the difference is night and day

At 500w, you should be pulling a pound EASILY.

Thing that worries me the most is the fact that I’m only at 550ppms on .5 Hanna..... extreamly light feeders anything past 550 and they yell at me

Light feeder doesnt mean it will be a light yielder.
 
Like just to give you an idea of what a done bud looks like. This picture is 2 days old. Im watering her tonight. I will be harvesting her in about a week.

The pictures breeders put up for their strains are typically taken long before they are ready to harvest because when they are ready for harvest, a lot of the fan leaves are dead and they think it makes their plants look shitty.

I imagine you were harvesting buds that looked something like this plant in the past? My guess is 3-4 more weeks on this one.

Every plant is going to react to nutrients a little different, but that is very low for full flower. Im currently at 1.8 EC in full flower. But if they are happy where they are why change or worry about anything! It's like the people that obsess about runoff pH or EC when the plants are happy. Just doesn't make sense to me.

Fan leaves/sugar leaves will always amber sooner than buds. It's a surefire way to misjudge when to harvest.
 
Hear they are 1 day before 5 weeks of 12/12 what do you guys thing time frame wise? Also hears my 4 blue dreams 6 weeks old from seed today? Should I do a heavy defoliation before the flip?

About 4-5 more weeks. I would clean up the bottoms of them before flipping but no heavy defoliation.
 
I was thinking of chopping anything below 50% up the main top and taking off every red stem fan leaf what do you think?
 
Blue dream is a known stretcher so I was going to do a leaf strip before flip and at week 3 to keep em from growing Crazy tall ... the blue dream will be under a xxxl magnum 1000w 7200k extra sun mh for first 3 weeks of flip to keep them from stretching as much as possible then switch to 1000w Hortilux hps
 
Week 5 and 4 days hears the update you where right I needed to tye them branches up

Week 4 of 12/12 4x4 tent pure coco 3 gal fabric pots watered every 6hrs on timer what do u guys think? Will I finally pull a lb?!

You missed an opportunity to leaf strip and remove larf from the bottom.. it would have fattened up the upper 50%.. you might want to consider some maintenance and thinning out the leaves some.. easy to mold like that.. good job
