Below are pics of my first plant. Its about 5 feet tall and is budding. My question is, when do i know when to clip the buds? I dont want to wait too long but I want to have the largest buds possible (obviously) I havnt really been taking track, but im pretty sure its about 3 weeks into budding.

Should I be giving it nutes (kool bloom) every day? Or every other day or what?


Thanks a lot!

There's treachery afoot
I also grow WW and it usually takes between 8 and 9 full weeks to finish. There are some great posts in here concerning trichromes and determining when to harvest. Go to radioshack and buy a magnifier then check out your trichromes. I harvest when about 30% are amber with the rest cloudy, some wait until more are amber, depends on what type of high you wish to achieve.

Trichomes are the crystal things that you see on seeds. They are THC.
Trichomes are the crytal trhings u see on the bud, and the leafes surrounding bud, these cystals each have a quantity of oil, resin, THC, this is what gets u high when u smoke""

Nice! I remember my first WW and man what a fucking blast. you need to go about 9-10 weeks. don`t believe that you can do it in 8 weeks (flowering) in the last week which is usally the 8th or 9th week, they will get covered with frost. what a beutiful sight it is. :)

Wow...awesome plant. That plant looks exactly like mine, bud, leaves and all.. only I kept mine a while lot shorter. I've been wondering what strain I have and this seems almost a perfect match judging by appearances. I'd be super thrilled to end up having a white widow. :mrgreen:
