Want to Know If Your Plants are Finished?

Just as a disclaimer...there are no rights or wrongs in judging the very final stages of late-flowering cannabis plants. Some people prefer to harvest earlier than what others prefer, and some prefer later harvests because that is what they prefer.

In other words, it's all about everyone's personal preferences in what they like and don't like in cannabis.

For myself, I definitely subscribe to Fdd2blk's(I cant spell) method of just "knowing" when the plant looks "done". Fdd doesn't post too much here on this thread anymore, but it still is a fantastic thread, and the best part is the beginning pages. I recommend everyone visiting this page to constantly keep checking out Fdd's posts in the beginning, he has some excellent insight and a very simple method of determination.

I just try to help out those here that look like their plants are getting close to finishing by giving them the confidence they need to just wait a little longer. For some, growing is a very private and personal experience, and it is easy to get excited without someone their to help you if you need it. It's also the average cannabis grower's number one mistake to cull a plant too early.

Hopefully, I'm in some way helping to get "just that much more" out of all your hard work.

Same plant in both the pics. I have done a bad job in keeping track how long she has been flowering for but I'm guessing it has been about 5-6 weeks. Any thoughts on what strain it is? A friend gave me the seed and he didn't know either.

Looks like an indica because it's short(er). Not too good on strains, myself but trying to help. Id say that plant is about 4 weeks in flower already. That one looks to be another month and a half to go. Looks nice!

Whats up everyone. I have some autos that popped up about 10 weeks ago. According to the timeline I was suppose to be able to harvest the Royal Dwarf after 8-9 weeks from the start. And the Big Devil takes 6 weeks to flower, and its definitely been flowering for at least that. Any ideas?

Royal Dwarf


Big Devil


Thanks

hey man real nice plants! i would say about a week, week and half for the royal dwarf and 2-3 weeks on the big devil. when you read "8-9 week flower" or "6 weeks flower" usually you want to add 2-3 weeks because the flowering time they give you is estimated under PERFECT conditions so unless you have perfect growing conditions dont expect flowering to be as short as they say

Thanks man! And cool, that sounds good. That makes perfect sense, I was getting a little confused on why both were taking longer than specified.

I have to disagree. I have heard that if lighting is insufficient it will take longer to flower. But I dont think other conditions can change the ammount of time it takes a plant to finish. That said, I have never heard of a plant finishing flowering in 6 weeks. That company probably strait up lied
