I am aware that nobody can tell me exactly how many days it will be til I should harvest but just give me an estimate, this is my first time growing and I just wanted to know what to expect 5? 10? 15? 20 more days?

Also, how much weight (percentage) should I expect these buds to gain beween now and then?

Thank you all, very helpful all grow long

Just a guess... It has been 7 weeks flowering, under 9 26 watt cfls, just want to know around how many more days...

Id say 5 - 10days... anywhere in there should be good...

No idea what sort of weight those few extra days would put on... sorry.

Thanks for the response, exactly what i was looking for, an estimate...

Another question I had is about molasses. I didn't use it at all during the flowering stages, should I use it in this final week or so or not?

I don't see any glands on your bud leaves, so you might have a sativa and a while (5-8 weeks) to go. Mine are always quite frosted well before 7 weeks, but I guess that could be strain related.
I guess it could be your pics? Below pic about 30 days in 12/12.

If it was a sativa with 5 weeks left would a small portion (10 %) of the pistils still be turning brown/red?

Get some better quality pics.

No don't use molasses this late in flowering if your harvesting in a week, this should be the week your flushing them to get rid of all the toxins etc.

I'm sure the pistils could still be turning despite of type. Mine retract and it's hard to find any trace of them by harvest time. I'm totally basing my opinion on the lack of grease on those small, upper leaves. It's hard to let her go too long, and easy to jump the gun.

The only camera I have is an old camcorder, those pics are the best I can do, I picked those 3 as the best out of about 15. I need to know if its going to be 10 days or 5 weeks because I need to know if I should flush it or not.

Get a microscope and check the trichs. If there all are milky its not ready yet unless you want a energetic high but should have a mix of about 50/50 milky and amber. That is the only real way to say if its ready or not.

Looks like its pritty fat so I am still going with my original estimate of 5 - 10.
