First grow. Are they ready?? LOTS of pics included

Looks like a couple of weeks or longer. Still a lot of white pistils

Nope! At least 1 week before wash for 1 (browning pistils) and at least 2 weeks for the other. And I do mean at least!
They'll finish ok, but I'll let everyone else comment on the nutrition. You've got a lot going on with those girls.

At least 2 weeks, maybe up to 3 weeks. Try posting another photo in 7 to 10 days. I would give it at least one more light feeding of bloom nutrients before you flush. When it is in its final week or so you will notice that it hardly uses any water and your soil will stay wet for much longer than normal. You not only want to see most of the pistils change color but also recede back into the calyx - the calyx will look like it is ready to burst open it will be so swollen. Only then do I begin to look at trichomes for amber.

My first three grows I harvested too early - the first one way too early. Almost everyone does. Just have patience. It looks pretty damn good for a first grow - don't blow it by cutting too soon.

PS - It looks like you probably over-fed them at one point from the damage on the leaves. Go easy with your final feedings. Are you planning on using plain water or a flushing agent for the final flush?

It is a white strain I believe, so you are never going to see a lot of brown. The upper leaves look drained me, so I would say it is done and from your description of the color of the trichs, me myself I would chop for the type of buzz your seeking. The plant will continue to develop even after being cut, so maybe take some now from the bottom, let t dry, and then finish the cut of the whole plant. Nice looking bud, by the way. Peace

Really? Whatever you say. But your calyx's on both plants tell me your still in the bulking phase, 1-2 more weeks to wash! Or like this. Consider that they MEAN to flower them the 55-60 days (or how ever long listed) THEN wash.

1-2 weeks over listed finish by seed dealers is more then common for hitting highest quality potential.

Only trying to help.

i take it you've grown snowbud and know what it's supposed to look like?

Yup,,,I don't care for WW or a fair portion of her cross's. With that in mind, I nor my patients cared much for it. Don't get me wrong here, it's good stuff. It just was not popular enough for me to give it a place in rotation.
Anyway, Yeah ALL the pistils will not brown on this strain by finish. But MORE then you have now will!

Peace dude!
