How long have you been flowering? I think i have at least 2-3 weeks on you theni have a batwing 400w and about 5-6 weeks to go. I look nothing like that yet
Id go with the "fire" too. But for most newbs its more a question of just getting as much good smoke as possibleMy first few grows, I was impatient from the moment the seeds germed! All I could think about was finished potent bud! I rushed veg to get to flower and I flowered to 8 weeks exactly! O think many new growers can not wait to smoke their product. It just makes you so anxious. But once you figure it out and see that indoor growing is about patience and getting knowledge. You will get good support here. Don't confuse a person with a high number of post to be all knowledgeable. That is not the case! Also the opposite with people with few post. What counts is how much experience one has. Some of the stuff is basic. Harvesting at the proper time seems to be the most sought after advice when just getting started. Followed closely by " How much yield can I expect". Eventually you will see that quality trumps quantity anytime. I'd rather have 1 oz of super potent fire weed than 1.5 oz's of just ok stuff. Trust me on this one. I'm sure many will agree with me. Unless they are grow commercially for just the concern of profit. Us personal growers are in search of FIRE!

Get a 30X hand-held microscope with light and check the trichomes/resin glands. It will be one of three colors: clear, creamy white, or amber. Do not harvest when they are all clear because it is too early and the thc is less psychoactive. Perfect harvesting time will depend if you have an indica dominant or sativa dominant strain. Harvesting when some of the trichomes start turning milky/creamy white will give you more of a head soaring high which is perfect for sativa dominant strains. Harvesting when half of the trichomes are creamy white and half are clear will give you a perfect balance of cerebral and body high. And harvesting when most of the trichomes are amber color will produce a physical body high which will be good for indica dominant strains. All this info I got from Jorge Cervantes' book: Marijuana Horticulture The Indoor/Outdoor Medical Grower's Bible. Hopefully this helps you.
