I have been using only molasses in water for a long time. They had a slow growth for about three weeks because of damn spider mites. After I had realized the problem and taken measures against it, they started to grow at normal speed again. I guess that's why it's taking that long...
How many weeks to go before harvest? (Pictures)

just saying hi to mr.herby 
how much do you think you are going to yield?
if it helps, try and picture the buds shrinking 1/2 of the size of its wet diameter and it will lose about 75% of its wet weight. so if you trim it up at 4 inch cola, after dried and cured it will be about 2"...
this is just my best guess on how much it will shrink on you. i have never measure a bud b4 i start to dry and than later after its done drying.

Between 30-50 grams I think. Just a wild guess though...

your third pic was a little dark and hard to tell. but i didnt see any amber trichs myself, maybe you should wait more timeI've taken some trich shots. Will someone please look at them and explain to me. I've studied about looking at those shots and interpreting them but I don't feel confident enough yet..
it really sux, and its ultimately up to you on how long you want to wait. you could selectively harvest parts of the plant and label them to see which high you like the best. that way you will have some buds that will be "up highs" and some that will be couchlock depending on what you like.....
btw, good quality pics herby
edit- how many weeks into 12/12 are you now?
.
11,5 weeks
I know about that color and high relationship,but I kind of suck interpreting those photos that's why I'm asking. Or are they just bad photos?.. If they are I can try to take some better ones...

they look okay. I week should be okay.. but I'd say probably a week and a half.
its kind of a waste to want the head high so much that you cut it early and only let 75% get milky. let those mature a little while others become milky. that way all of the trichromes are matured and some are a little amber but most will be cloudy.

Oh herby, those look so nice and frosty.
and I can see that they are good and cloudy now from that last image.
you could probably cut any day now if you want.
or you could wait for some to become amber (yellowish) to get a more balanced high from the smoke.
Great Job man those look soooooo good.
Have you decided how you are going to dry/cure them yet?

Thanks Alto...
I think I'll wait for amber ones. I'll use the hanging upside down method for drying and then the glass jars for curing...
I've just taken some new shots, any tips on taking photos of the trich macros by digital camera?

Nope, the images you are putting up look as good or better than the rest of the ones I see here.
Are you using a tripod? I use one to be sure I don't get any "shakage"
looking good Herbie
