How much longer?? 1st time harvest



I was wondering if you guys could give me some input on how much longer I should wait to harvest?

I know the pics aren't the best, also theres a pic on here with brown on a bud.

I don't know if its just dead dried leaves of if its something serious?​

get a loop and check the color of the trichomes. dates really don't matter much. Breeders dates are just a base for that strain.

How long has it been flowering for? Also factor in the 1-2 weeks of flushing but from what I know 4-6 week of flower is like a rule of thumb depending on the strain and its requirements it could go up to 8 weeks. Im doing a 8 week flower strain and im only on day 32(about 4 weeks) so no rush to harvest bro the plant will really tell you when she needs to go. Also those buds don't look too full or fluffy I would let her go a few more weeks!

They look like they are in week 4, 5, 6 ish.... They need to go for weeks bro.... When the white hairs start to turn orange, they are pretty close to ready

is that bud rot in the second picture where its all brown and dead looking? I tink it is and if so, you want to chop the infected area off. Also your soil looks really wet and tightly packed not good, poke some holes and or cut the bottom of the bucket off/transplant in the ground if you can. Also is your main stack bent or something and your holding up with a sling? this looks like a plant in need of some serious help
 
Thank you all Ya its tied up I can't access it as much as I'd like. I was wondering the same thing about the brown bud, I looked at it 2day and I think it might just be dead/brown leaves. Theres holes in the bucketand I just watered it before pic was take. Should I put some more soil in it and tie it up a littlke better? I got the magnafying glass today, they say Trichomes should be milky white or amber in color? Should the hairs be 75% orange? I think its like the 4th or 5th wk of flower, I don't kno exactly how long. Do the buds swell or get bigger closer to harvest time? Next grow will look alot better lol. Also where do you guys suggest for seeds, and are the feminized seeds always 100% female? Thanks for the input

Looks like you've got weeks to go yet, but more concerning is that second picture, the bud is black.
 
Should I take a better pic or cut it off just in case? Will it stunt it, I also had spider mites pretty bad. I also had alota 3 bladed leaves, I don't know if that helps anyone?
