Well this is taking forever!!! First 2 pics are my NL, other pics are bluberryc99 which are obviously further along.... I must be very close right? Lol im on day 97 since switch! I definitely did NOT feed my plants in flower like I should have and I’m thinking I really stalled my plants for a week or 2 or more but what do I know lol really hoping they can finish up soon! I’ve got another line up needing that tent real soon! Lol

That blueberry c99 is totally in the harvest window. I'm sure another week wouldn't hurt, but I think it's probably about ready. The NL might be a week behind, but really it's probably pretty good too. Ignore the fox tails, and take a look at the trichs on the buds again.

When I look at the trichomes, even on my most mature plant, to me it looks like there is still a bunch of clear. Mind you I have two very untrained eyes on it lol. Also, the NL still has most of its pistils white and standing tall. Don’t I need to wait for them to turn colour and receed back into the bud?

Like I said the NL looks a little behind, but it looks like to me that most of those fresh stigma are the foxtails. Checking trichomes is tough to get accurate, but if they don't look as cloudy as you want then give them another week 
. I did that with half my crop last week. I took the most mature because I needed to cut them, and left the rest. They are still in there finishing up.

Lots of times they will sort of go through waves of growth. Do they not smell when you touch them? You don't really want your room to stink all the time. That means that terpenes are evaporating.

Hey thunder! I’ve got the tent in a detached garage almost 200ft from my house and in the country so I’m not worried about smell. My hands smell and get sticky when I touch em yes. I guess I just thought it’d be stinking to high heaven lol. I did cut one plant 2 weeks ago and definitely too early I guess because it did not get me THAT high. 2 weeks dry mind you. And that weed smell doesn’t seem to be quite right either...

Yep cutting early will do that. Not a great high not great flavor or smell.
My grow room dosnt stink to high heaven most of the time. It definitely smells way more when it's hot though. Really you don't want the terps evaporating if avoidable. So as long as they smell nice when you touch them and you let them finish then they shoul be good. Some strains smell more or less then others too though. I've got a mystery plant in flower right now that is crusted with trichomes, super frosty, but has zero smell even when I run the sugar leaves. It's wierd honestly.

lso for reference, ALL of these times are based off when the plant starts to show flowers, not when it was switched to 12/12 lighting.
Very good advice and truth that most don't go by. After dropped to 12/12 the actual budding doesn't start for a week or 2 before you start the 8-9-10 week count down. Not all agree with that but then wonder way it's not finished at 8 weeks from flip. To me it's all about the tricones color. Depending on strain some with about 10% amber some half clear half cloudy and some all cloudy.

I’m 14+ weeks from switch. Day 104 or something lol. I need that tent soon for my next lineup. I got a Jack Herer that is almost a foot tall in 4 weeks from germination! It’s crazy compared to my first run! It took 2 months to get into 5ga pots my first run. In the pic, it looks like I’m gonna pot up to a 5g in days. I can’t believe how strong she is. Incredible!
