heres my n.lights at day 68 of flower under around 600w of cfl, i heard that n lights should only take 6-7 weeks, im almost at 10 weeks and think i shud chop it in 2-3 days time unless anyone states otherwise?

quite a few of the hairs are amber/red, hard to tell what the trichs r like with my 10x eye loupe but theres deff some amber in there not sure what percent tho.

Mine are NL, but outside...To me they look perfect & ready to go.......from what I see....nice frosty tops.........Address ??? I'll bring papers & swill.........
 
I must say, really nice high watt CFL grow mate.

On that last pic it looks like quite a few new sites are pushing their way through, but plenty already ripe so it's your call I guess.

Cos my setup's dry wall and dangerously low humidity i've really pushed mine this time. A couple have ended up with tiny, immature seeds here and there- apparently this could be flowering for too long. Fem seeds and light leaks too so who knows for me.

i ended up just cutting alot of the more mature looking flowers (most of the lower branches in my case) and leaving the top colas which are still at 50% orange pistils to mature. So maybe just cut whats def done or just a few?

Great job though mate.

**edit** jesus how many CFLs is that??!

thanks man, yeh i reckon the top cola is done so i think im gonna chop that at least, there are a few buds at the bottom which are all white hairs so might leave them for another week or so.

lights for flowering i used:

1x 250w envirolite red spectrum
1x 250w envirolite blue spectrum
1x 125w envirolite red spectrum

cheers for the post in my thread the pros and cons were excelant and non biased and given me a fair bit to think about thanks for that im gonna give the cfls a shot.
ive been thinking about the extra time your buds have taken to rippen the plants may have built up more thc in that time.
i might be pickin ya brains in the future nice talkin to ya.
 
If you pick early you get a more cerebral high.
If you pick late you get more of a body stone.

Looks to me you are right about in the middle.

One of the strains I run is AK47. It's a 50% Sativa 50% Indica cross. If I pick it early it has a very up/energetic high. If I wait till late to harvest it smokes like a heavy Indica.

Personal choice I guess. I like a Sativa high during the day but I bust out the Snowbud for the late night movies.

In fact It's time to take a puff of Medusa right about......now! Cough!
 
great grow. how many plants did u have in there? You should keep updating and let us know the final weight when u chop and fill us in on a nice smoke report. Good work. + rep to you
