Hi good people, these are the pix of my girl... the strain is unknown but its surely Sativa, its the 12th week of flowering and still i see the clear trichomes... and the hairs of pistils are still whitish!! the is the best zoom i could get from my camera... u can see trubid and clear and even hairy trichomes... shall i wait more till i get no clear trichomes ?? shall i wait till amber color starts showing?? what do you think? peace
It doesn't look ready to me. Is this plant outside? If it is, flower time isn't that easy to determine. Outdoor flowering is usually longer and determined more by where you are in the world. 45 day hybrids in my part of the world are usually ready for harvest around the end of August and will start flowering the end of June. A pure sativa will start flowering around the same time but not be ready for harvest until October.
looks close, maybe between a week or 2 left. If the individual flowers(bracts) stopped growing 2 weeks ago and you see the majority of the pistil turn that second, darker color your ready. Also look at the hairs(pistils), do they look like they're being pulled inside the flower even further than usual? If so, It's ready. I use this method because some strains resin doesn't turn amber on the plant, causing you to wait and wait until you've got rotten bud. Lookin' good so far though
