Looking good man, i like how you have the lower bulbs so as to surround her with light, Good Shit !!

As for how long it'll take to complete flowering firstly its very much dependant on the strain (genetics) if its bagseed that can be kinda tricky. So there are other ways to figure it out. Using a cheap 30X pocket microscope from like Radio Shack (The Source in Canada) and check out the hairs. They should start out clear then go to cloudy then work their way to amber. Thats the plants way of telling you shes done.. Do some searches on finishing flowering and you'll see the exact things to look for.

Hope that helps,

Good advise toronto. Also take that 30x pocket microscope and look at the trichomes, they will be mushroom shaped when the plant is ready. That is the only way to know for sure if its harvest time.
