Harvesting, first time grower

Hi All, I am a first time grower even though I have been smoking for 20 years. Could I ask for a bit of help from you professionals in identifying attached pics, when my bud will be ready to harvest?

Hi, quite hard to tell from those pics but something doesn't look right to me. How many weeks since you switched to 12/12?

Something doesn't look right to me also . I have never seen buds look like that . What strain is that ? Please tell us more details about your grow op.

I hate to say but that plant is not worth finishing. Need to start a good 10 seeds then find a healthy lady, she would be three times as heavy and way more worth the work. you should see a good bit of bud on that lady by now.

What does the fox tail say.. Some serious wispy buds.
6 more weeks they look like they just started budding :what:
Sativa dominant grown under cfls or t8's??

Ah, fraid I can't really help. Only grow indoors and would be more hindrance than help.

Good luck.

i'd say throw it under a magnification device and take a look at the trich development but i dont even see any trich's worth looking at there dave.....thats the weirdest damn bud i have ever seen.....its like 110% sativa lol.....keep posting pics, outta my suriousity lol, but id say ur far from harvest IMO

Hello. Autumn hasnt even started yet down there.. i dont see any red hairs and i think that plants may need at least another month of flowering.

Sativa clones? Looks like you have been flowering about 3 weeks, eh? Wild guess is you have another 5-6 weeks to finish. BigSteve.

Does this plant have small seeds on the buds. Almost looks like a male .

No, no seeds on the buds. I will take some more pics this afternoon and post. The smoke that the seeds came from is kick ass to say the least. Skunk and swazi are the two types that are growing. Thanks so far for your help dudes. keep er lit

That is a likely pure sativa, and they can look like that. I too thought it might be hermie or male, but wispy buds scream pure sativa. It could yet hermie here and there, and it's still no crime. In fact, you may get a seed or 2. Sativas can take a long, long time to finish, and native African strains are known for that. The quality of the high changes. At 60 days it will be good but different from 90 days. Don't judge by the very tops. Gently fold the stalk over so you can inspect the underside of the buds. If they are green and fresh and clearly growing, and the calyxes are not fat, you can wait longer. Sativa high gets more complex as the plant matures. I like both the high and the flavor to be fresh, so I tend to pick a little early. All brown and dried pistils is too late for me. Looks like the yield will be low, but the high will be awesome! Congrats!

Sweet, I am really looking forward to it .
really appreciate all your help. Some more pics taken today. I will update the pics every 4 or 5 days.

Howzit Guys, some updated pics on my plants, still trying to determine when I can Harvest? I want a good high and maybe second half of plant as a stone. Bit of variety from the three plants.

I have read the pure sativas, like what you have, can take up to 14~16 weeks of flower. It could be a long wait my friend.

that shit is crazy.....thats gotta be 100% sativa and yea they will take a long long time

Thanks, they have been flowering now for about 7 - 8 weeks. How will I know or what should I look for before harvesting?
