Any input RIU? I hear so many people say dont go by trich color only, but this is my first grow and need some help. I dont know if i have 1, 2, or even 3 more weeks to go!

******* Trichs on taller sativa looking one, are half clear half cloudy. Also Pistils are 80% white, but now plump thick white pistils.
******* Trichs on shorter, maybe hybrid, are cloudy for sure

well what kind of high are you looking for? more cloudy/milky trics = more "crisp" heady kind of high, more amber = more of a "stoned" feeling, good to relax/go to sleep. i usually harvest either like a 40/60 or a 50/50. i am more of couchlock type of guy so i like a little more amber trics

Not using Nutes because A: when i started i was broke, and B: wanted to see what i could do with just water!

Plants will see their last light on Tuesday, cutting Wednesday.

I know it isn't what you want to hear but they aren't even close to ready. At least three more weeks. The calyxes need to swell and retract the hairs and that is still weeks away from happening as far as I can tell.

Hey if you got high, and thats all you want outta this, cut a couple down and keep a few and let em mature. thats how u find out whether or not ur bud is better young or aged. Remember most weed is like wine, it gets better with age.

Sure it'll get you high but its still weeks away from being ready. They're your plants and you can cut them when you want but if you've gone this far why not go a few more weeks? The potency, yield, and taste will all be 1000x better.

Trust me, waiting is hard especially for an impatient super stoner sick of buying weed. My buds are a few weeks further along than yours and the suspense is killing me but I know it'll be worth it to smoke ripe bud.
