i planted a bagseed in october, and i have been flowering for 70 days as of today... 10 weeks.. and i dont see any amber chomes..

every part is white, but will not go amber, and it looks as if the plant is still trying to grow on last bit, most of the hairs are still white and all the fans have fallen off.. there are basically no more leaves but it seems the buds are still trying to grow, like in the last pic, it seemed to stop growing and then out of nowhere on all buds this little skinny part is tryng to grow more..


idk if it will ever turn amber or they are already to pull, this is my sneaky grow with no hps

I have the same thing going on, it is just the strain. When it is ready, you will know. some strains just tend to take a little longer than others. Check out Fdd's sticky in this thread to see what a bud looks like when it is ready to harvest if you are not sure.

Good Luck on the grow and + rep for the nice bud shots.

dang!, almost 14 weeks? crazy... yea i was comparing my buds to fdd's and ho i dont see any amber, just everything is white, like white white, no clear anywhere all white, i want an half amber half white.. ive pulled some lower buds that were white and dried em for 5 days and the stuff works, but id like to really see the difference from amber to white chromes..

and as u can see its a small grow, the buds arent even that big.. probably due to cfl only...


and what really got me was that the buds have been white since week 7 so i started flushing, and they are still the same so they are not getting any nutrients.. just water...

should i put anything in the water to get a final boost?

man, no questions ask, u cant see amber with your eye balls my friend, go to radio shack get the ten dollar hand held microscope everyone uses. this will show you the trichs and u will be able to see color better, u will b able to c if they r clear, cloudy, amber etc, (amber doesn't mean dark either, just some color can qualify)

still if they are all cloudy, and u like a heady high, then chop, if u want couch lock then wait for them, itll tell you, but honestly.. GET the microscope!!

Like Fdd says, when they look done they are done. I sometimes use a hand lens to look at trichs, but they will definitely look done when they are ready, your plant is still looking pretty green, hasn't got the amber glow to the buds yet. I won't lie though, having a hand lens is good to check the trichs, but not needed.
