I see some fairly new looking pistils on there so I would wait a bit.

How long have they been in flower? Looks Sativa so they probably need 10-12 weeks :)

I'd say at least two more weeks. Load up on water and food next water then maybe start to flush the week after.

def looks sativa to me, and you still got a while to go...i usually wait until the slowest developing bud has 2/3 colored pistils before i harvest

depends on personal preference...sativa is more of an energized head high, whereas indica is more of a couchlock stoned! lol I had white castle which was a 50/50 hybrid and it was the best smoke ive had yet...but im drying some buddha haze right now which is mostly sativa...ill get back to you on that one!

sativa is a taller plant with wispier bud with skinny leaves, more heady high , while indica is squatter wide leafed dense buds and a serious couch lock retard buzz. different strains have different percentages of sativa/indica and or just be pure one or the other

Sativas are a great smoke man!

And they are extremely vigorous. You can Super Crop them, top them, tie em down, etc. They seem to take a lot more "fucking around with" than an Indica.

well i think with my next grow im not going to " fuck around " with them lol i think it caused this one to take longer cuz all three of those pics r just one plant....it looks so messed up when u see the whole plant lol but the bud is looking good especially for my first grow...iv only put about 60 $ into it

well then the way i would look at it is: as long as you get an eight out of it (which you obviously will) you made your money back! haha

when you harvest your plant you can trim it or hang it upside down, it takes around 5-7 days of drying it then curing it will take another month or so, curing is placing bud into a jar and opening the jar a couple times a day for a minute or so to refresh the air inside the jar, sterilize the jar and i mean boil it in a pot of water for like a hour to clean out any funky smell, i had one with a weird smell and trust me it will not smell like the plant you were growing
