I will be going another day or two, then another 24 hours of darkness before harvest. The lower buds aren't as ready yet.

days of darkness doesn't make the buds swell up.. look at the trics jason. take a picture and zoom in on it on your comp and look at mutiple areas of trics, find the average of clear to cloudy to amber

Alright, there seems to be some problems. I checked up on the plant, and it seems to have developed new white hairs. I honestly have no idea what to do right now, I ordered a 60-100x microscope, but it wont arrive until the 25th. My current camera can't take pictures of trichs either. Also, the buds have really swollen up since the last update.

Alright guys, I have bought a jewellers loupe today for about 20 bucks. Checked the trichomes and man was it good. A rough estimate of 90% milky, 8% clear, and 2% amber.

Wet Weight: 259 Grams
Estimated Dry weight: 25% of wet weight, approx 65grams total. Subtract say 5-10grams for the stem. Approx 2 OZ :D

very nice, i didnt really read the beginning, what lights and how many watts;lumens were you using?
I used 6 23w cfls for the first two months, then upgraded into LED lights to finish them off. The led light gave off true 150w instead of the advertised 180w.
