the seed bank estimates are always too short. part of that is because some count from the start of actual flowering, not the start of 12/12 which adds another two weeks.

you'll be close to harvest when half of the white pistils have changed color and the trichomes are turning amber.

It has been a very very easy grow for me, it has grown fast and strong no issues, but then again i have the perfect environment for them: perfect humidity, temps, ph, nute levels, lighting. you'll learn how to grow them, just takes time. keep on growing

Well I just started flowering plants (12/12) 7 days ago, so I guess it will be around April 27th? you say an extra week for White Widow? I hope they turn out as good as yours look.

Estimated times are just that -- estimated. I agree on both points that the seed banks estimate from the start of flowering and that they tend to be based on the most optimum of conditions. Mine tend to run a little longer for the most part. That said, you are at a point where time does not matter. Do what you are doing... Check the trichomes daily and when they turn milky white, not clear, they are ready. Since you are growing different strains they will most likely finish at different times. And, yes, to the question of Sativa's taking longer -- up to month or more depending on the strain and conditions. Both of yours, however, are Indica dominant.

Leaves curling down are a sure sign of too much nitrogen. What soil are you using, how old are your babies, and what type of nutes are feeding them?
