It is on a 400 watt hps bulb. 12/12 cycle.

Do you mean 11 weeks flowering or 11 weeks total? Also to my knowledge white widows are indica dominant.

You can check the resin spheres, under magnification and see three states, as I understand it, clear, cloudy, then amber.
Ready is when you go cloudy for most spheres until well into the amber phase. That period is supposed to be when the THC is ready, but trippy-high-mellow-sleepy is sort of the range that maps to clear-cloudy-amber.
A rating for my taste might be less than 10% still clear, 90% cloudy.
Apparently 10% still cloudy and 90% amber is a couch lock but a real
palliative medically speaking. Not where I'd go with WW. I'm growing
some now.
Don't you still have at least 5 more weeks with WW? Looks like those tops will be big colas if all goes well.

11 weeks flower and .....
In the mid-1990s, a marijuana legend was born. Almost overnight, White Widow appeared on the menu of just about every coffeeshop in the Netherlands. This marijuana masterpiece went on to become a yardstick against which all other “white” marijuana strains are held up. Marijuana seeds of the White Widow strain grow into tall cannabis plants with delicate arms. Her buds are moderately compact in order to contain the copious amounts of THC resin she produces. Tending toward the Cannabis Sativa side, Nirvana White Widow produces a buzz that is powerful yet energizing and very social.

The bulb is approximately a foot away from the tops.. I burnt the top leaves last week because it was too close. How much longer do I have until harvest, in your estimation?

Ah ok thank you for clearing that up. So I put them into the flowering cycle after 5 weeks veg.. They have doubled in size since the flowering cycle. In 5 weeks I should be able to cut them down?

Thank you so much! Ok so with two white widow plants under a 400 watt hps, how much weight should I expect after drying the buds? I know you can't answer this explicity, but if anyone has a ballpark estimate i would love to hear. They are grown in soil, and are currently 2 feet in height. I am giving them a sturdy dose of micro/grow/bloom nutes, and I have topped and FIM'ed them.
So should I expect 2 ounce, or 8 ounces, or what?

left - i would say 2 - 2.5 oz
right - 1.5 - 2 oz
My advice is lean back the nutes , you are burning the tips of your leaves , lower the light a bit , your light imo did not burn them , trim off the megre looking lower stems that wont really do much in weight and let the plant focus on the high cola's , good luck , dont forget last 2 weeks , nice things happen
right - 1.5 - 2 oz
