I've got this grow going over in the CFL grow forum, using 2 23w CFL's with a random bagseed. I'm sitting at about 9 weeks and 2 days, trichs are starting to go cloudy, I'd say 20% brown pistils. This is my first grow, so it's going to be my first time harvesting. How much longer you guys think?

When seed companys put a due date on there product trust me there not from a cfl grow,Your plants looks Great.Very good job for your first plant.Only using a scope will tell you when there ready,BUT i would give it atleast another 2 weeks the wait will be worth it.You can snag a sample bud and quick dryit and see what you got I dont think your gonna be dissappointed that is in the long run with a good slow cure.If i had bagseeds like those id never take the risk of ordering.And only 2 23cfls??? amazing.

I can see some amber trichs in the last picture. Dont worry about the pistols, just the trichs. 30% amber and the rest cloudy will be sufficient. But i am guilty of harvesting on occasion with almost 90% cloudy. peace

Very nice for cfls. I'd let it go a couple more weeks. Personally i'd rather smoke overripe than underripe any day of the week, it'll taste better (in my humble opinion), and you're ensuring that the bud will have swelled as much as possible. Really based on what i can see, your bud is "ready" i just don't think its "done". of course do whatever you feel is right, its only wrong if you're not satisfied with the results, not cause some dude on the internet says so.
Happy harvest!

That is one amazing looking plant. I would say another 2 weeks tops. As hard as it will be with a plant that looks like that, take your time with the cure. It will be worth it in the long run.
