What do you guys think?

I am having trouble deciding when to harvest my girl what do you all think? Another week or so? It has been flowering since the first or second week of January. I am not sure what type it is. I think its a sativa.

what lights are you budding under? Do you have a hand held 10x - 60x microscope. They are only about 20 dollars at radio shack. They are really helpful because you can look at the trichomes and tell when they are ready more accurately. it is really worth having one. I have not harvested a plant without it. They should take about 8-12 weeks from start time. Your plants look to me like a indica/sativa mix. Your plant looks really nice by the way. At a closer look, they look ready to me. No more than a week for sure. They are really pretty. Very dank looking. Well done!

Looks plenty done...

If its Indica, it usually takes 60 days to finish..

Sativa, WAY longer... up to 13 weeks.

the cfls are equivalent to 100 watts each or something like that and the florescent above is from my old aquarium.

This is my first grow so i have been sort of just winging it

wow, that plant looks pretty good for just being under 3 26w cfls and the tube. trichomes and bud swelling are what you need to look at when determining when its ready. heres some info from our growfaq and from fdd's harvesting tutorial-
faq-
we will start with ripeness. most people say to check your trichromes with 30X magnification. i have other ways. when buds are done they look "done". the appearance of the bud changes. the leaves start to hook upwards and become hard and crispy. the calyxes will swell and the hairs will turn brown. you can see a golden tinge to the bud leaves. this is the amber crystals. they start to turn amber on the leaves first.



not ready..........





ready.......






notice the difference? it's pretty easy

I have 4 cfls one is behind the plat

I have been flushing it now for a week now.

If you have been flushing it for a week now i would set it in total darkness for 48 hours then chop it down. It looks ready. That is some pretty looking bud especially for only being under cfls good job!!

thats definitly a hybrid... sativa dom. prolly 60/40... still has alot of indica in her.

id wait another week, to be honest... your trichs still look mostly milky
