Dayummm that pink is beautiful. Are you talking about 50 days from when you flipped to 12/12 or from when they showed sex after flipping?

I think the standard way is to count from flipping to 12/12. Also you always want to keep in mind that the breeder wants you to talk up the seeds and they bullshit a lot on the harvest times. You just wanna do it when the trichs look how you want them to.

Ok I always count my days from light flip. However I am very well aware that they aren't info flower hormonally for about 2 weeks. Now to tell about harvest. I usually watch my plants. When their pistils begin to turn orange and shrivel back into the calyx that is when I get out the scope to tell. I try NOT to keep using the scope. As it can damage your trichomes (ie they stick to it).

Very beautiful pink. I'd say you are mid-flower and have anywhere from 4 to 6 weeks left. Nice grow!
