you need a closer look at the trichs. how many times have you removed from the plant to test? that might stop it finishing.

I dont keep track of time in my grows. There is no need to. I veg til the screen is full and I flower until the trichs are ripe. Real simple.

No it wont affect it but I bet that wardrobe isnt light tight. I am not sure how much of a light leak a plant will take but when the light is on look at where light is coming out and try to seal up some of the gaps and see if that helps any.

i like the sounds of that a lot am looking fowards to my 1st scrog you just have yours in soil? wot space you use per plant? think i may only need 2 or 3 plants
i think would be more effective way for more bud as only in that double built in wardrobe

Hmmm...That is a long time. I grow a pretty sativa dominant plant that takes 12-14 weeks, and it will keep growing out more white hairs forever I would guess. I always get tired of waiting...hairs turn brown and die...and new ones grow in...I have often wondered if I could just leave it growing and use it like an apple tree for weed, as in I keep taking some and it keeps growing more...doubt it would work, but I have a runt plant I might try it on...worst case scenario it goes so long and then grows some balls...which I wouldn't mind at all....I like this strain but I would like to focus some more energy and time on some faster plants...and the only way I can have this one to grow later is if I keep it growing now, and I don't have anywhere to put a mother plant, so I just keep cloning and flowering and cloning and flowering, would be nice to get some hermie pollen, make some seeds and put them up til I feel like waiting forever again...lol. Your patience is amazing! Good luck the plant looks good to me, so whatever you have been doing for so long looks like it is working to me.

that would be cool if you could have one like an apple tree and keep taking bits! haha i think thay ud only get so much then ud have to start stripping the main cone.
so when u get tired of waiting u just start to flush it and then crop?? yea i dint have room i just keep growing and cloning lol will hang in there for few more weeks and see how it goes lol thanks for compliment :)

wow 4 pages of useless info that does nothing for the op problems, only one person out of 38 post and only one indicated the proper way to determine the ripeness of the plant, NEVER JUDGE RIPENESS BY PISTIL COLOR TURNING BROWN:spew:, If you had a light leak it would show hermi action, my guess by the lack of info you need more light, more fresh air, a camera flash will not make your plants stress, ditch the aluminum foil and stick to white painted walls, cool-tubes suck ass for flat gardening there more suited to vertical gardening, a aircooled 400 watter can almost touch the plant/ light to faraway, i bet if you looked at the trichome color with a jewlers lope it would be ready, good luck hope you find a solution soon
