Very good point! That could easily be a lower bud close up...
Another good point... is it a sativa with long thin leaf blades?

Okay.
420god I took this pic from a small side branch that reaches up almost to the top. This pic is not of any top bud. Should I take some? Also I'm really bad at telling tric color I see 0 amber in this pic is this correct? Or are there amber trics I'm missing?

I can't tell the color of the trichs from that pic. You might try a USB microscope. I'm looking for one right now.

That is a Nirvana strain cross between a Jack Horror and a Black Domino. The listed flowering time on that plant is up to 11 weeks long. That is actual flowering time, not a 12/12 light cycle time. So from the time that you first saw the female preflowers, add 10-11 weeks to that. That will be close to your harvest time. Look at positive, it'll be ready for Christmas if not Thanksgiving.

Well now this is the first time I ever hear of this info. That blows donkey nuts I could be homeless before thanksgiving.That is a Nirvana strain cross between a Jack Horror and a Black Domino.

So if this is true how do 8 week sog's work?
Since it took my plant about 2.5 weeks to preflower when it was switched to 12/12 if I were doing SOG with blackjacks I would have to run it for 13-14 weeks? This information throws a wrench in already completed grows or I'm really not understanding.

Nirvanas BlackJack? i cant really tell from your pic, but is it the citrusy pheno or the lanky medicine-smelling pheno? Either way, still too many hairs.
(photos are about 2-3 days old)First couple shots are of the citrus pheno, they'll come down this weekend (chop will be about 12 weeks from first pistils). The second set (the last 2 pics) are of the lanky pheno. It showed pistils around the same day, and looks to have another 2 weeks left at least (which is worrying me). Maybe it can give you a better idea.
-edit- for those who cant tell or are wondering, these are of 2 plants. One has 3 colas. The other has 3 and a half and are all retarded. Major weight though =D

It smelled very strong like SM-90 (exactly like it), citrus smell, for the first 4 weeks of 12/12 then it started to smell like good Krip with citrus the next 4 and for the last 3 it's smelled like a bum that has not bathed in 10 years rolled in some super smelly weed. If I basically put a small bud up my nose it smells citrus like.
Your hairs are more withered than mine but for the last 3 weeks I've gotten new pistols while others are new growth. Mine seems to have more crystals and bud maybe. I have 4 main colas 4 secondary colas and the side branches have buds that look almost as big as the secondary colas.
If my 1 baby has 3-4 more weeks I can't imagin how big the buds are going to be. It's Going to be a killer harvest for my first harvest. Sad part is I have no choice but to harvest very soon
My leaves are yellowing I've had to remove a bit of dead ones I doubt she will have any left after this month. I'm really failing to see how she would flower for 3-6 more weeks.

rather than pick this post apart i would rather just insist that you should get more pics up. Like i said, ive chopped one of these already and 2 left are getting there. iam saying 3 weeks judging by your pistils (yes even if its new growth). Sometimes thats just how a strain works. get more/better pics up and you will get a more precise answer.It smelled very strong like SM-90 (exactly like it), citrus smell, for the first 4 weeks of 12/12 then it started to smell like good Krip with citrus the next 4 and for the last 3 it's smelled like a bum that has not bathed in 10 years rolled in some super smelly weed.
