This is hydroponics for anyone seeing this at a later date. Will feed for one more week then flush for one week.
First time grower...Tent, Hydro, LED/CFL combo. Thanks for any advice.

Hi Darth, here's a link to some bud pics of the BD I just pulled. It was ready at Day 56/8Weeks, pics are Day 55. Notice the maturity of the overall buds, hairs have turned brown, curled, trichs are cloudy. I wait to see a couple of ambers and pull, that's my preference for a head stone with sats. You can go longer or slightly shorter but yours aren't ready yet. The trichs started showing at week 4, and you could even argue some were cloudy around week 6, but that means nothing until the overall plant/buds are matured. Last pics you put up all the hairs on the buds were still white, when they turn brown and start to curl then check the trichs.

The weather here is virtually the same year round in so cal. I can't wait to try an outdoor crop. What part of the country are you in? Time for a dab of some double diesel...cheers

Update on the vegetation station: The Aurora seed #1 and Blue dream from seed were male so had to pull them. The Aurora OG and Cheesey smurf are female. I was hoping 3 of 4 would be female but at least we have 2 good ones.

Thank you for the response. Was looking for opinion because I have no idea lol. I will let it keep going but I want my other 2 mamas to get in here asap since they switched to flower already.

This baby has been flowering for so long...culminating factors in play... my ph was off a bit, and I vegged her for very long time, led light too weak... I am happy but she is taking forever.. Will keep it going since each day there are more triches...that is all we want.

Oh...and I topped this beast a lot which likely stressed the Blue Dream out...You can see sooo many colas. One reason I believe the LED light is plenty but was too close is because the leaves yellowed a scoche in the direct footprint. The colas on the outer edges which you cannot see clearly, are the chunkiest.

You're welcome. What do you mean they switched to flower? You control the light cycle, right? I'm stoned and confused, haha. If you veg for long enough, they will get preflowers, but they won't start budding until you switch to 12/12.
