First off looking very good, second you will probably need atleast a month to 2 , depending on grow rate , and what type of high your looking for . The plants have tricomes that changes colors on it , they start out start and then turn cloudy then amber , if you want a more energetic high cut them down at about the cloudyness stage , if you want that lazy effect cut down when amber , you can see the tricomes with a microscope only by cutting a crystalized leaf and viewing it under the microscope , if you dont have money , then they will be ready when 40 -50 percent hairs are red , let them change to 60-80 percent and your high will be a bit more relaxed..

Wow, one to two months longer? I was hoping it would be more like 3-4 weeks. Oh well, that's why I asked. Thanks for the advice. I was thinking of getting one of those $10 microscopes at radio shack to check trichs, but maybe the red-white hair ratio is better?

The pictures I posted are all from one plant. There are 5 other plants (mostly clones) that are about 1-2 weeks behind this one, based on bud development comparison, and they are a lot less bushy due to less pruning, but they are approaching the same height.

Anyway, I have another question about the yield. The buds in my pictures are still small, maybe 2-3 inches long and another 2-3 inches around. There are like 12 of them of various sizes at the top of the plant, plus there are another 10-15 smaller ones on lower branches. Any idea what kind of yield I can expect from this plant when it's done? I know it is hard to guess these things, but even a ballpark guess like "more than 2 oz." or "less than 6 oz." or something would be helpful.

Haha that question is asked almost everyday lol , what I have learned is this. Do you have co2 in the room , how much light are you using , nutes seem to be working fine , but are you adding mollases , hightimes has done a study and it shows that you will get up 20% more yield when using , these are your plants at four weeks right ? and you have some more that are similar but not pruned as well .. im guessing from the pic of that one plant you could get about 2 oz's dried maybe more its hard to tell from the pic

Id say your looking 5-6 weeks yet. The thing thats working against ya is your using cfls and they look sativa heavy which both add alot of time.co2 injection would knock 3 weeks off if used correctlt since start of 12/12.I think maybe a temp or humidity isse with the saggy leaves.Do I win a prize??

Thanks everyone. I will try to answer all your questions at once.

First off, this is a hydroponic grow, so I am not sure how I could over or under water, They are in a 14-gallon reservoir with a air bubbler and using general hydroponic nutes.

I did add molases, but not Co2. If anything temps may be high in the closet because it has to stay shut most of the time. The browning on the leaves is from the lights touching them because they were growing so fast that even if I raised the lights in the morning, by the time I got home from work in the evening the plants had grown into them again (1-3 inches in 8-12 hours!)

They are not growing as much now vertically, the buds are increasing in size though.

This is month 3 since seed, and about 6-8 weeks into flower.

The pictures only show one of the plants in the container, there are 4 more that are a couple weeks behind and two runts (these two don't get much light, so they are small, but there are buds on them.
