First Grow: Bud check opinions?

I have a northern lights in a mylar grow tent under a 150 hps, 150 watts of CPL, and 40 watts of LED. Miracle grow soil and a daily kelp spray..... lost track of timeline..... here is a snap of the buds....how long do you think I have??

Pics kinda suck and a full body shot of your girl would help too, close ups are nice, but need full shots too. I'd say at least another 4 weeks.
 
I was using one of those USB microscope things hooked up to my laptop so it was hard trying to focus it and peak over my shoulder at the screen while in the tent.... i'll take some more here in a bit..

I would have to agree with kmkshr21. Hard to really tell from the pics, but they look awfully thin.

Next time I'd use larger pots and keep the lights closer to avoid stretching. Looks like your plant may be root bound, it's very large for the size pot. Otherwise, good work
 
I have two plants... one is a northern lights from a seedbank..... the important one is the northern lights.... the other is some really good bagseed that I ran accross... i have no idea what it is....it turned out to have sativa qualities.....to tall for for my little tent so i had to bushmaster it the other day.. it's looking a little sad today..but it should perk back up on the next watering/kelp spray..
 
just installed an automatic watering system today..... I'm a systems engineer working on a hobby project (while i am between contracts) of creating a fully (as can be) personal grow station tent controlled by a low power/low cost single-board linux platform.... i'm using non-integrated solutions right now while I grasp the basic concepts of cannabis growing...

idea is that watering, light cycles, ph, temp, air flow, nutes, can be automated ( with supervision ) to make it really easy to maintain..... webcams are in place to help with manual remote observation....
it's prob not a marketable product due to it's complexity and cost...but it's a pretty fun personal project! My tent is only 3X2.5x5 ft so it's a pretty small personal gig! .. i bought some bushmaster (PACLOBUTRAZOL)to keep the crazy bagseed under control..i hope....

Please get those wires and electronics off the floor and away from any sources of water. We want you to stick around long enough to harvest the girls :)

Those babies look like they may be light starved. With still a loooong way to go to harvest, maybe another 1.5 months maybe?!?

I sure you hope you've got at least 4-5 weeks to go, you're working on about 2 grams of dried herb right now lol...
