long flowering

[crack pipe joe]

yo, i had three lemon kush plants. ive cropped two of them when they looked ready around a week and a half ago but the one left in there still doesnt look ready even thou its been budding for over 9 weeks and there is a possibility of spider mites, is it best just to chop a bit premature?? (the buds are the size of my arm).

Yeah, so how can you tell if they "look" ready?

9 weeks! ? I would switch from that Lemon (Sativa) and well over 60 days in flower is just to long. Mine are ripe n ready in 52 and by 65 if I let them go they are absolutely on the end of life. No one should try growing long finishers indoors. Sativas, Thai's, Hawaians, ect will keep u waiting till the rapture and well sativas are fine smoke but not better by enough to wait 5 months.. Yes I have tried one that took at least that long and I threw it out.... GL

If you have smoke all ready, and are in no big rush. let her finish budding.
Your 9wks. into flower. Your pretty much committed at this point.

just going on when the majority of hairs have gone browny orange and when its had around the right amount of weeks. witch is why i have asked because the two dont match up!
(i know you can do stuff with magnifying an shit but its never seemed necessary to me..)
