Hello guys,
Tomorrow my plant is going into 7th week of flower and it looks pretty ready for harvesting but i would like to know your opinion about it. Its a THC Bomb strain and for my very first grow, I am verry happy with the results.

Nice looking plant....job well done.

I'm guessing 3 weeks to go. Go to radio shack and get yourself a hand-held microscope for $15 and take a peek at your trichs. Mostly clear.....not ready.....mostly cloudy.....harvesting is optional....first signs of amber.....it's harvest time!

Well I think i made a mistake letting the plant growing with 14 colas which leaded to smaller buds but at least i managed to keep the plant healthy for the whole life cycle.

So you are saying 3 more weeks ? That sounds too much i think. Its a good thing that i asked because i was thinking to turn off the light for 48h. and harvest it right away.
Thanks.

And there is one more thing. From the day i put it into flower stage, it has not grown a bit. I was expecting to stretch after the 3-4th week but not such thing ever happened. Is it because of the lamp ( its 125W CFL which equals 400W for just one plant) or its because of multiple colas technique (14 in my case) or there is something else that i am not aware of?

i concur with a bit more time as well, a good 2 / 3 weeks looks about right to me as well..
regarding the amount of colas you grew, and the stretch, have you ever grown this strain before? also, it depends on what strain it is, the more sativa in it, the more stretch it'll have, the more indica, the less stretch ime.. i just grew bubba kush, and that thing had hardly any stretch once it hit flowering..
btw, looks great, nice job.. :D

THC Bomb is a mix between sativa and indica. And NO ...never grew any strains before, thats my first try but after i finish this one and if i am satisfied by the quality, i'll buy the same strain and add some more light power. The thing is that this strain is very easy to grow.

I would also say, about 2-3 more weeks...but I would get a scope and look at the tricks to really determine when ready...looking good for the amount of light used though.
