Hey I am not sure if it is time to harvest or not. They are 6 wks and 5 days into flowering. I stopped watering every day and it seems like they have slowed or stopped in growth. The hairs have died back in 2 days as well. It looks like the roots have died on the inside of the pots and my other plants that are 2 wks behind these are showing the same problem with the hairs. If the roots have already died is it too late to revive them? Here are some pics of the oldest ones.

Looks like it could go some more, lots of white but I don't know if thats your camera etc...

Clear/Milky, thats an early window so harvest soon if you want a more head high, later on if you want more stonage.

Lookin good tho!!

I've never seen a strain that's done flowering in 6 weeks.

Usually, no matter the strain... most take at least a good 8 weeks. Sometimes I've seen a 7week strain.. but they're rare.

But yeah, I would give them at least another good 2 to 3 weeks.

and im sure someone has already said this, but go out and buy yourself a microscope, or magnifier.. and check the trichs.

That's how your suppose to check plants.. for when to harvest. The trichs will tell you when the ladies are ready to be chopped.


Good luck.. and btw, the plants are looking great man. Keep up the good work! be patient though.. trust me the reward is worth it.


peace.

Actually.. I've seen some pure Sativa strains that have taken as long as 12 to even 14 or 15 weeks to fully ripen and mature. But, I doubt your growing a pure Sativa.
