Default 4th week flowering. How much longer do you think I have?
Im at the 4th week of flowering, smells very little so far. I did 60 days in veg. Trying to post some pics lets see how that goes!
Anyone tell what type it is by looking? I am trying my best to hurry it up, when do you think the soonest I could yield anything?

Wow, that's a long time in veg! But . . . They look good for a 4th week flower of a sativa dominant strain and they won't smell a lot until a little down the line for most strains (we're talking generic Sativa plant here). Sativa strains are usually ready in 10-13 weeks so that means you've got 6 weeks to 2 months to finish. Really though you should be proud of getting them this far and in good shape.

So sativa's take months longer to finish then indi's? That plant looks like it is healthy but the yield is very low. Is that normal? Would mor elight help? I would send you more fixtures and bulbs if that would help. I am 1 week into flowering and my plant has like 10 times as much bud so far. I believe mine is an indica. I vegd for 1 month. Could he have out veg'd his lighting?

Standard cfl's dont have enough light penatration for a large plant, anything over 20'' wouldent really do well you'de need more juice like a couple 105 watt 6,900 lumen bulbs compared to the 23 watt 1,600 lumen bulbs.

Sativa will always take longer than Indica. No comparison can be made as most profuse flowering happen in the last weeks. You're doing fine. It just takes sativa's a long time to flower compared to indica. More light always helps. The sun has about 10000 lumens per square foot on a sunny day. You can compensate for the lack of light depth from CFL's by placing them closer to the plant and along the side fo the plant.

Nice Info, thanks! Yeah the lights are placed along the sides and up top. Gets pretty hot act gotta have a fan in there. Does the yield look weak so far? What would it be like if it was pulled/harvested on the 7th week, would I get anything?

Fans are good in general. At this stage it's just hard to tell on yield. You have plenty of bud sites and sativa matures late. Keep those CFL really close to the plant. I doubt that you would get much at week 7. The last 2-3 weeks are critical to bud and potentcy. Think of your plant as a pre-teen right now. She need to mature into full womanhood before you cut.
