How long until harvest? First grow, day 38flower

Hey everyone, it's my first grow and Im on day 38 of flower. Im surprisingly not in a rush to harvest, Im just not sure how much longer these ladies will need and was looking for some advice. (Oh, by the way, I know pic 5 has what looks like a hair on it. Its actually a thread from the trellis net I cut off. It left little threads and fuzz everywhere!) Thanks!:leaf:20210501_075626.jpg20210501_075622.jpg20210501_075618.jpg20210501_075615.jpg20210501_075610.jpg20210501_075602.jpg20210501_075557.jpg
 
Okay, awesome! My goal was to harvest by my birthday on June 29th which now seems like a reasonable goal. I do understand not to just choose a day and go for it, but to rather watch and listen to when the plants are ready... I am a 1st time grower but Ive smoked for over 17 years now so I do know what a ripe bud looks/smells like, but not really WET AND ON THE PLANT! LOL, THANKS FOR THE HELP!!! I personally am waiting for about 50% AMBER TRICHOMES. Yes, I like that lazy indica high...IT WILL BE WORTH THE WAIT!!!
 
38 more days
YESSIR! Thank you for the advice! It sounds like you're saying I'm half way there, and that is GREAT news!
I am looking forward to these ladies swelling up but Im not exactly sure how much of that will happen if at all... They are all SUCKING UP THE WATER AND NUTRIENTS NOW and im soaking em' almost daily to keep them from fully drying out.

5 of the 6 of my plants are gelato 33 × purple punch. Do the dark colors come out at the end of the cycle or are my plants just likely not going to show those traits? I am trying to drop temps at night but am having minimal success

Typically it takes a 20 degree drop in temps to achieve full colors
I never bother
I don't grow for show

I would actually let them dry a bit
better than overwatering

you finger fucking those plants? Lots of dark pistols for 5 weeks
 
Are you handling them a lot? The first couple pics has almost all dark hairs. That was going to be my question as well.
No, I've not touched them but i did put a trellis up and had to remove it... The trellis hit and touched hella nugs...
Will this make them shitty or what?

If you want 50% Amber you're probably looking at 6-7 weeks. Probably ready in about 4ish.

Yeah those trichromes are crystal clear and ur only shy of 40 days into flowering so i would estimate several more weeks probably but i dont know what strain u are growing so some of that is information only u have right now...

Growers regularly handle their plants to smell them etc. theyre not made of glass but its always good to be as gentle as possible.
if you do this, handle the lowest leaves only and the same leaf every time. i offten do this to pull a cola towards me if nessesary. but its bad practice to touch them realy and allways mak sure to wsash your hands first and dont ever go into your grow room without changing from outside clothes.
i allways shower and change b 4 entering the grow room just to be sure im not bringing in anything from what i may have touched or any tiny bugs that may infestate my grow. im a little anal when it comes to my grow
