This was on May 28th so its been over 4 weeks since switching to 12/12..

nvm its been cut down to use since it looked good enough lol.. wonder how much it'll weigh dried out. Its gonna all be vaped or cooked so its getting dehydrated at 125 with a "fan having" dehydrator to make it quick. Shouldnt take more than a day solid to be pretty dry. the big buds mgiht still be flexible but will even out moisture wise over a couple days if taken out from what ive read.

any guess on the dry weight?

Yeap... you still got a few weeks to go .. And that will not give a "body" high.. it will give you a "head" high.. that's a Sativa you got there my friend .. don't look like an afgan to me .Indica use creates a “couch-lock”, I-don’t-want-to-move-a-muscle type high. Using indica is a great choice for those nights indoors watching TV, playing video games, or just chilling with close companions. The indica high numbs the body down and induces an overall sense of relaxation, which is ideal for a relaxing night’s sleep.
Sativa use produces more of a mental, cereberal high, which often results in a boost in energy and imagination. Sativa strains are perfect when working creatively in activities such as writing, painting, and brainstorming new ideas. Sativas are also a great choice for enhancing the experience at artistic events like movies and concerts.

Yeah it's a huge loss since you wasted a month for something I would throw away...

Another month or 6 weeks and it would've really stomped your face in the dirt, too bad!

Patients is a virtue when it comes to MJ cultivation. Keep an eye on the trichs. They will tell you when to take her down.

One thing I can say is to wait for the smell and swelling. Almost always, the start of the last 2 weeks it will REEK and swell up. That's when I start to look through the loupe at the trichs. All your buds look like popcorns compared to what they would've been.

And the shortest flowering time I've heard of with good results was 6 weeks, and that's on the fast side .

I will probably get hammered for this but I guage how well the plant is and how badly it has been treated by the amount of browning pistles. Not sure if it is strain related but lets say my ph strays a bit and goes un-noticed for a day or 2, pistles start browning. This is not to be confused with natural browning but I certainly wouldn't be using this as an indicator of maturity or harvest time. As stated in an earlier post, swollen cyclaxes and growth spurt tells me we are in the final week or 2.
