These last few weeks are killing me!

I was wondering the same thing. It is a sativa dominant, so I figured it might be a long finisher. Good to hear though because if I were to harvest now I don't know if my efforts would be worth the result. Good thing I am only doing this for fun!

I do not have a scope yet, but will get one soon. It is odd, my favorite head shop doesn't sell the 4:20 scope although they sell the jars and they are made locally. Also, unfortunately I don't have a med stash but thanks to my Oregon roots I can get the super-duper for wholesale. In a town where suckers are paying $70 and eight, that is a super bonus for only living here a few months.
To tide me when this plant is smoked, I have a couple of these lowriders.

The best way to tell if it is ready to harvest is to check the trichomes with a microscope. Radioshack sells one just like the 420 scope for $10 and the only difference is that it doesn't have 420 printed on it.

This thing keeps producing new hairs! Now they have a light pink hue to them. What does that mean? Anyhoo, it looks very nice. Isn't the best smelling strain, but for bag seed, looking beautiful! I bought a scope from RadioShack, a 60-100x and I can't focus on the damn thing. Did I get the wrong scope?

No, that's a problem with that Radio Shack scope. It takes some getting used to.

You need to make sure the target object is perfectly stationary, first of all, and then you need to work both the magnification and the focus controls until you get a sharp image. Changing one of the two settings will affect the other one; so every time you change the magnification, the focus will change also, and vice versa. The quick and easy way to really fine-tune it is to get it into reasonably sharp focus, and then move either the scope or the target object very slightly in and out until the image is sharp. Also keep in mind that the image you're seeing is inverted - so if you want to move the image to the right, you need to move the object you're viewing to the left, and vice versa. Want to move the image up, move the object down. And so on. It takes a little practice, but it's an amazingly sharp image for only ten bucks.

Cool, thanks for the advice! Rep for you brother! Also, it probably doesn't help to get smoked and then groove on the triches!
