are you guys really asking someone to tell you if your plants are done by posting a pic on the web ???

Really ??

buy a 2 dollar scope and figure it out, no one can ba accurate, with a pic on the web.
i bet you any dollar amount or any wordly possession that your wrong.. if you have grown cannabis long enough you dont even need a scop.. it will simply have the done look to it... kiinda like a bannana... should we look at bannanas under a scope to see when there done..... when the calyxes have swollen to the most, and the hairs are all turned to that classic fried look and no more white hairs are emerging, and most of the fan leaves have yellowed and died... wich if you dont feed till the end like a jackass they will do this... then those plants are done.... they will have that look to them....

Hi folks, took an advice from someone who i probably shouldnt and put my babies into pre-harvest darkness with intent of harvesting today. Now i think it might have been a bit early - so do I chop `em now or can i go back to normal light cycle? White Diesel, day 63 from switch. Trichs mostly milky, few still clear and few already amber but Id say 99.5% are milky. Breeder states flowering time 50-65 days. Can upload better and more recent pics later if needed. Thx in advance

5-7 more days and chop...... you can look under you lens at that time and see that indica dom plant will be atleast 20% amber

so sativa dominant. is it ready? if not how much longer? on sativas do you want to let the trics get amber or harvest when cloiudy/clear? or how do you get more of a motivational or laughy effect. not so much of a couch locked zombie.

That IMO is wrong, different strains show different signs they are done.

for example if a plant has orange calyx many assume its done, when many strains put out
orange calyx at 3-4 weeks, a scope and trich colour is the only real way, i agree you could be close, but trich colour tells the whole story.

Part of the "done" look is the bud changing color...this is the trichrome color...so you are both right. and once you have seen the plant as a whole and used the scope, many times...the less the scope is needed. I use the scope now and the tiny few spots I check on the bud only verify what I see when looking at the plant as a whole:weed:

agreed, but you have gotten to know the strain more than likely, if im on 3rd generation of a seed, sure then i can tell by look or date.

naw were both not right... only im right... and your right about the trichomes change color to a goldenish like hue.. any real grower with 5 or more years under there belt would agree...

This is unknown strain @ 8.5 weeks. obvsly still young, looking for est hvest time and also guesses at % of indica/sativa or strain(bagseed), Next picture is a close up of a cola (not the main one) but obvsly still fresh pistils everywhere


And now Lemon kush also at 8.5 weeks i havent seen much of this strain online and from what i gather it finishes around 9-11 weeks, was thinking of chopping in 7-10 days, fresh pistils on the tops of colas still though

it should probably be noted that the lemon kush has had the shit sampled out of her, and she has four tops of equal size...
The work of CFLS, yeah.
Kush is on the right, random bagseed on left both at 6 weeks:
