8 weeks into bloom and pistils still arnt receeding

Im at 8 weeks of flower on my cali hash plant and the pistils just dont seem to be turning they are mostly still white with only a few orange.
This plant was vegged for 2 months without any nutes as it was a freebie seed and i didnt want to spend any cash on it. during flower she has only had some bat guano that i had left over.
So she is now 16 weeks old and only had the guano, is it miracoulas that shes still alive and the growth has been stunted too badly?
Or will they turn because im thinking they should have started by now.

Heres a couple of pics, check out all the dead growth im thinking that has to be the cause of stunted late flowering growth ??

Can anyone put their finger on this ?

looks fine bro.... it is getting damn close now...

Thanks for the reply m8.
You think?
Maybe its just me being an impacient fucker, but mainly all the pistils are still white i'd have thought they would start changing colour by now.

check your trichomes harvesting by hairs isnt the best or accurate way

Yea i know dude i have checked and there is no sign of amber yet, mainly clear going cloudy.

its suprising sometimes how quick they turn, a batch of autos my mate had did the same, then they all turned brown in 2 weeks, looking gd m8 stick with it. if there are some cloudy trichs appearing then u are within a few weeks away....... nice 1...... cant believe im complimenting a gooner

well cloudy is good to just depends what kind of high u like, and id just havest it yu dont have no leaves on that plant so now whats gonna make it grow u need leafs for plant production

i chop wen most are cloudy wit the odd amber gives me a nice smiley high followed up with hammer to the head, strain dependent, i reckon u close m8 but if all hairs are white and trichs arnet all cloudy i wud leave her as long as u can

Thanks for ur help man, and i wont have u dissin the gooners!! haha were on the road to victory this season i rekon.
About what the other guy said with the leafs being the plants main source of production, do you not think with having this many leafs dead it could be slowing me down at all?

no leaves will slow u down alot

hmm tricky one as he is q correct in saying that leaves store nutes , and thats y we flush to draw those nute out of foliage to rid plant of nutes befor harvest,,,,, but u dont have any left so i suppose thats irrelevant now.. however being so close to harvest m8 i wouldnt even bother, if u havent been feeding owt all the way through im sure u wont need a flush, and she survrved this long without help... jus let them trichs go maj cloudy... chop and enjoy the fruits of ya labours and yeah as much as i hate to admit it u r playing sum great football this season... my missus is a gooner ... my lads a fooking blue..... and me a nd my angel are LFC till we die.... lfc till we die.... im sure we are..... i know we are ...... LFC till we die
