Thanx ill post more pix and get something to look at the trichs closely

Trichs don't matter at this point. It's too soon, they are all going to be clear. Maybe very little cloudy none amber. Wait until the pistils start shrinking into the bud and they all are brown or 70% anyways.. Then look at trichs. I don't like messing with my tricks because the loupe I got is hard to focus unless your up against the damn thing which smashes trichomes and isn't good.

I say 2-3 weeks left judging by the looks.

At least 2-3 more weeks....
Hairs, do not worry about the color....
When the hairs start to recede into bud [2-3 weeks from now]
The plant will be close....
Then check for color of tric's... well, first time, try to get a loop...
Then when Tric's have the lowest % of clear...
Then it's time...

I originally wanted to say 3-4 weeks, but didn't want to mislead him but 2-3 is reasonable.

You got at least 4 weeks now I'd say... I also see see some burnt leaf tips..


judging from pic two, your buds look small which is why I say 4 weeks. But idk what lights your using looks like cfl? If so, that's also why your lower buds are small. Cfl doesn't penetrate deep

def a few weeks yet,get a scope from the grow shop,they are gonna be done at different times ,the more amber trichomes you see,the more heavy/narcotic type buzz youll get,also get a good flushing agent,foxfarm makes a cheap organic one -sledgehammer,helps out alot

IF you choose to flush, I generally wait until I see the first amber crystal without needing to move my scope around to find one.
When I set my scope and look, if I see an amber, I know it is getting close. I flush with pure water (no flushing agent). When it dries out (4-5 days) I water it one more time. When it dries out (2-4 days) I toss it into darkness for 72 hours. Then cut.

Sometimes you will get lucky depending on the strain...just assume you will have to place a clone or the plant under 12/12 to determine sex. You can also put a light tight bag over a branch for 12 hours a day until it shows sex...just gotta be diligent.

Sledgehammer is only like 14 a qt,Im in hydro I use another flushing agent,read the label,usually use the agent,then water till harvest,its up to you when you want to start tho,I like around 30-40% amber myself,you need to watch the trichs to gauge how fast its ripening,I use Final Phase once,and harvest around 8 or 9 days later on just pure water in hydro,starting around 20% amber on most strains

also if you took clones off the plants that are flowering already,they are gonna be female,guaranteed,males will show sex early,2 weeks or less on your bag seed,dutch masters makes this stuff called reverse,it prevents pollen formation if needed
