IS IT READY??? End of WEEK 7 12/12

Ok got a pretty mature looking plant but im not sure if its ready. The leaves are turning yellow and falling off but still got some green left. The trichromes under a 60x are looking mostly cloudly and clear but there are 1 or 2 amber trichs here and there. Id have to say the pistils are more white then amber and I have noticed some new bud growth. Anyway heres some pics, all feedback appreciated.

Those look pretty sativa like. They would probably enjoy at least another week. What strain is this?

wait another 2 weeks , looks like a sativa dom. wich usually takes 9-14 weeks. if you know the strain that would help..you said u had new growth so there is your sign on the sativa dom. if you cut now you will not get the full bud growth and it will still be a lil green.. do some background on what your growing and then go from there.. BUT they loo good and are close but if you wait you will get some gnarly twisted bud wispies.
 
Well these are bagseed genetics so im not certain of strain. It was good smoke though not shwag, i just ended up with one bud with 22 seeds in it. I was thinkin sativa dom too.. Ill give it another week or 2 then check back in. Thanks for all the replies guys..

[FONT=&quot]My verdict? Not even close.

Looks like you've got a Sativa dom there. I'm at week 10 flowering a couple Indica doms under 400w HPS, they are ready to be pulled or I can let them go another week since I'm not sure they are totally finished.


I'm giving them the opportunity to have a final growth spurt (if they've got anything left in them).

My trichomes are mainly cloudy with the remainder being clear and one or two random amber.

When the plants are ready to pull you will typically see the plant shedding it's leaves, they will turn yellow and drop off when you gently test to see if they are still attached.

Your pistils (bud hair) will be at least 95% dried and somewhat shriveled.

So basically your plant is too green to be generally considered anywhere near ready.

You would be wise to give a Sativa dom at least 10 weeks before you start to consider the chop.

Let em go, let em grow.

I'd look into cutting it. Wait till the lights are about to come on to cut so it's has 12 hours darkness to break down the previous days starches into sugars. If you cut in the middle of the day, it will have more starches built up.

End of week 8... Watcha think, another week?
Is that one plant (all three pics)?

It looks good, you could cut that today, it's mature.

Me, I'd leave it a week to take advantage of further growth spurts that occur in the final stages.

But if you're in a rush, you can chop her now, she looks in great shape.

I let these go an extra week after they were obviously ready

Ya its all one plant. I bent it over half way through flowering bcoz of stretching so its kinda mutant looking. I went ahead and chopped it today.. Want to enjoy some good smoke soon ;D... Got 4 more tht will be ready in the coming weeks. I started them all at the same time but they grew at different rates. Not to mention 1-2ft height variations... But its bagseed so im not complaining :bigjoint:
