Am I done?

I think one of my plants may be finished, but I'm looking for a second (or third) opinion. I'd say about 90% of the hairs are orange, but there are some new white ones about to bloom too. When looking at the trichs, i'd say about 25% are orange, 25% are cloudy, and 50% are still clear. This is a bagseed, indica dominant, been flowering now since June 14, so about 11 weeks under CFL's.

Picture attached.

It does look done. But i'm going based on the trichs... shouldnt I have more amber/cloudy by now? Ive stil got mostly clear. My other plants have been flowering just as long, and most of them still have mostly white hairs.

Have you read the "Marijuana Botany" paper? Marijuana Botany - Marijuana Growing Guide This is a MUST READ. Great info on THC production. Chapter 4 is really good info on what the "window" of harvest is, and what to expect depending on when you harvest.

I picked mine a bit earlier, maybe 2 weeks, than where yours is now, with most trichs being clear/cloudy and a few amber ones scattered through. The pistils were still predominantly white. The high is great (and potency doesn't seem to be lacking either!). It's really "up" and you start thinking about the damnedest things. Plus, you aint nailed to the couch!!! Still got alot of "body" buzz, only more up if that makes any sense.
Chop it now and you won't be doing wrong. Yeah, you could probably wait, but it looks like you are definitely in that window.

The leaves look long and thin because the plant was wilted in the picture, and the leaves were curling. Her leaves were indeed quite fat.

Vegged this one for like 3 weeks. Most of them vegged for 5 weeks and are much bigger. I also have some very sativa dominant plants, which is another reason theyre taking so long. Im using almost 600w of flour light, and its still not enough. This is my first grow, third plant ive harvested. Next grow will be hps.

Little update. I harvested all 16 of my plants that were all grown from seed under CFL's. Total dry weight: 160 grams (6.7 oz).

Not bad for CFL's!
