1st grow, ready to harvest yet?

Hey guys, This is my 1st grow so I'm not sure how close to being done this plant is. She's exactly at 8 weeks of 12/12 and has had some sort of nute def. for a month or so but keeps growing still. How close does she look to yall. I notice some of the white hairs kind of shriveling up and turning brown, especially on the lower buds. Not sure the strain, it's some bagseed from some mids I had a few years back. I have a 40x jewelers scope but it's hard for me to see what exact color the trichs are. They are def. not brown yet but i can't really differentiate if they're clear or milky. Some are def. clear still. thx!

My guess is you're at that crucial point where a decision has to be made; Do I cut now or wait to see if they fatten up more? Myself, I'd give them another 10-14 days to see if they swell a bit more. How dense are the flowers? Looks to me that if you cut now, being your first grow, you'll be mighty happy, but you may be even happier if you give them another two weeks or so. Nice first grow either way!

I'd say yer at least a couple of weeks to go, maybe more.
Flowering doesn't start the day you switched to 12/12 BTW it's when the stretch is over and pistils appear everywhere (NOT preflowers)
Looks like yer gonna have nice crop though.
If they had a "rookie of the year" poll here you'd get my vote.

yeh 100% leave them another week and half let them pistols get a little browner and the buds fatten up a lil more gonna have a nice smoke bro

i think u got another 2-3 weeks id trim that dead brown leaf off that will cause mold and bugs .buds look great but from pics looks like u still gotta lotta white hairs that need to turn i wait till 75% of my hairs have changed to orange and harvest good luck

Fot your first grow, I would def give you an A for a passing grade ... Looks good from the many research posts concerning when to harvest. Great job and I bet that those 15-20 more days are going to be worth it with some great bud !!

Thanks! I kinda figured that about the time frame of flowering vs pre-flowering; very useful info!
