Want to Know If Your Plants are Finished?

I feel for ya as I had to pull mine too early last year (my first harvest). I was leaving town and had time constraints It was still very good smoke but this year I planted early and I'm giving them time to fully mature, no matter how scrawny they look.
Wish I could keep it going. My heart breaks a little bit! Someone told me to throw trash bags over it and put it in my car until the inspection is over, but I feel like that is a horrible idea.
 
How long guys it will be the end of week 9 Saturday thanks

I haven't a clue my mate gave the seeds to me from hiscrop and he didn't know what it was how many weeks do you think?

I'm no expert. You're pistils are still white. I'd guess at least a coupla weeks. The truth is in the trichomes tho. Lots of swelling right up till harvest.
 
Ok, these are some ww's just going into week 8 after the flip. The breeder listed it as an 8 week flower. The trich's look mostly clear to me; pistils have been brown for a while. Another week? More?

I want to flip the tent to the next grow but can wait; 'm mentally through with this grow. ;)

Sorry about the quality; it's hard to hold a microscope and get good pictures.

Looks mostly clear to me as well. When you start seeing some brown trichs you'll be getting closer. I harvested a Northern Lights a few weeks ago and when I thought it was ready with about 20% brown trichomes, 20% clear and 60% milky.
 
Be 7 weeks tomorrow from flip.
(one of the middle/lower buds.)

I like going by the hairs, if they are all about 2 thirds brown, it is normally about time to take it. If you want to make hash, I'd let it mature a bit more (orange trichs)
 
7 weeks is when they start to be actual buds, like the very beginning of it. If you harvested now you will have missed out on virtually all of the bud. The 3 weeks between 7 and 10 is when all the actual bud is produced. Considering you put 7 weeks into it so far and only another 3 will make the difference between a real harvest and a pathetic one, I'd say cutting now would be an unwise decision. Maybe 9 weeks if you're in a real hurry, but definitely not 7 if you want any kind of weight or bud thickness at all.
 
Today is 7 weeks.
It's a 7 to 9 week strain
Whatcha y'all think?

What about these? Strain is AK-47. Plants have been in 12/12 for 50 days. Trichomes appear mostly cloudy with a few red trichomes. Buds lower on the plants look very immature. Not sure if I should chop or wait. Any opinions?
