You lucky sod! 2 for 2? I'm a touch envious 
Girls are looking great fella. I'm so pleased for you.
Working out harvest dates is a black art mate
I think they are still preflowers and that the official count can only be when the main top growth is flowers rather than leaves, which should be a week or so away. Breeder figures always seem a bit optimistic too, add a week to what they say for a more realistic harvest date. Would you believe Pandora is still alive and well for exactly that reason?
I'm with ele on the possibility of you having a sativa pheno though. It's no bad thing, but it may mean adding another couple of days on.
As for smell, that can start early with some plants but usually only kicks in after the frost comes.

ight v thanks so much yah i wont start counting down for a while then ill watch the trichs and the flowers, i didnt think id pull off 2 for 2 thats for sure... but none the less itll be interesting. whats a good way to get light to the branches that are under fan leaves as you can tell ive been trimming them but im sure theres a better method. and if theres a hint of sativa in there damn company needs to get their description right...

You'll prolly laugh at me but I've just started using those foil trays that take away curries come in
Tip it upside down and cut it down the middle so it slides close to the plant & reflects light back up. Fold the edges over so they don't hurt the girls.
I know it sounds daft but it works good

listen up all you motha f*ckas no update today
sorry today was busy and couldnt fit any photos into the light schedule.
but i do got a question for all ya... should i trim the leaves that are blocking light to the branches? also should i trim the branches that are undert the stem and are getting no light so the plant does focus on those anymore? thanks DW...

Personally, I wait till the yellowed leaves fall because the plant is absorbing its nutrients. Also, I say take 'em off, but I think you probably knew where I stood on that one. I have 8/9 budsites exposed, now and plenty of leaf matter on the other side for absorbing light and oxygen. My Top44 is lovely dark green happy and raging full of trichomes @ 21-ish days flowering. There is one budsite I can't expose as much and it's definitely the runt. I've also seen people fold leaves, not for nothing'..
