What strain is it? What is the recommended flowering time from the breeder? Have your hairs started receding into the bud and reddening off? Have you noticed any calyx swell? These are a few ways to tell if your buds are "reaching" maturity. Once these signs start to appear my plants can be ready from a couple days to a couple weeks, it does really help to get a $10 scope just to be sure.

As the others have said it is nowhere near ready. Can you give a little more info on your grow? Lights, growing medium, nutes, etc?

So if thei is insuffent light is it worth keeping it for 8 weeks or whatever cause I am starting a auto in a grow box I got a seedling light I use until about 3-4 weeks then transfer. But if this light isnt enough should I pull it and concentrate everything on the auto?
