I'd guesstimate a bare minimum of 3 weeks. All pistils still look white, and. Us not filled in to much. They put on the majority of their bulk the last couple weeks. This is the point where most people get anxious and usually chop to soon. Be patient, watch them fill in, and if you have a magnifier (30x or better recommended) check the trichromes. Mostly cloudy a few amber for upbeat heady high, mostly amber for couchlock feel.

I think you are right because they are in 6 weeks of flowering now. 3-4 weeks later indica will be ready like u said but i cant say the same thing about sativa. maybe much longer than indica right?

Yeah. Sativas take longer, but they appear more full than your indica. Sativas do develope slower though. Trich checking is the best method of both. Dont suppose you know the strains? That will help to determine the optimal time on each, and then from there it can be customized to personal preference with trich color. Another method is as the pistils change color and start to recede, but this isn't the best as some varieties will continue to pump out white pistils till chopping.
I dont know the strains, they are bag seeds.. BUt first one % 80 indica dominant other one looks like pure sativa I think. thanks for your help I'm gonna buy a 100x microscope =)

One answer...HELL YES!! Well hopefully. They put on most of their weight during the last coue weeks. You will notice they will stop growing (appear to) and stall. That's when the magic is getting ready to happen.
Yes we can say this is my first grow, I grew one more time but i didnt care about that grow, my friend started, than I read lots of users grow journal to get experienced to finish it. My english not very well but I learned what I need to do I think.
Theese plants beated my cat several times, I veg them 1 month with 70 or 80 watts of CFL I didnt remember.
But the interesting thing is i didnt use any nutrients just headhammer once a week in flowering period. I didnt use any ventilation. They are in 2 gallon pots BTW. Sativa is 56cm (22inches) and indica is 42cm (16,5 inches). They stretch double size into first of 2-3 flowering period.
they are in a fabric dress wardrobe. I will planning to buy a 250 watts of hps and mylar. will have 550 watts of light. Than planing to use 12/12 from seed method on 10-12 plants. It will be better for my grow conditions. small plants only have one main cola each plant in 1 gallon pots..
