Is this be ready for harvesting 8 weeks and 6 days

Bruh I'm confused we be in week 8 and lowers still mostly white and tops look like meh

Also before my weed smelled a lot and now this one doesn't stink at all. Is that a good thing? Like I'm not evaporating them terps or it means that the terps are not there and I've cardboarded my weed? If I lightly touch sugar leaves and then rub fingers I can smell that weed smell so idk what to think

Your acclimated to it and only notice it when you have fresh sap on your fingers. Honestly I can only smell weed when some one lights up. Most people trim off the branches that the light dose not reach or use a side light. Your tops have another 2-3 weeks and your gonna have to ride for 5 or 6 if you want your bottoms to finish

Its fine. they should go pretty fast from here. What strain are you growing? Btw they look happy and healthy.

I’d wait til those white hairs are mostly gone or orange. Maybe cut an hour off the light to let her know the end is near.

If your growing a heavy sativa leaning strain that's just how long it takes 11weeks is like a minimum

Dude, good grow so far. No signs of distress or disease.
Regarding timing - Read the leaves. Yours = many weeks left of growth ahead of you.

Some general thoughts:
1) Fan leaves should look as if they've finished a full fall season. Let your ladies change colors for awhile, some strains are AMAZINGLY ATTRACTIVE in this phase. It implies the plant is using all its available resources to find a sexual partner (bigger buds = begging for tree sperm)
2) Sugar leaves turn colors but your buds will continue to swell.
3) Once your buds swell to Triple D cup size (and then stop swelling for perhaps a week) its time to harvest
3) Trichomes - ignore those until the very end. WAIT for signs of any amber at all. Once I see amber I chop (personal choice)
4) All hairs on all buds should be browning, NO MORE white hair growth. Read into it, white hairs mean your lady plant is begging for tree sperm. So as long as you sexually frustrate the sh*t out of her she will continue to grow... until she can't. that's time to harvest

Keep up the good work! @Can'tGrow

Looks like you CanGrow man!
Might not be the best genetics but they look nice and healthy atleast.
Id say a couple weeks atleast

It's a indica leaning hybrid, zero gravity cross

And just like that, we have some kind of bud. Lets see what one more week does to it.

Fire Brother

How many weeks did the zero gravity cross go

Probably strain selection, if you want some fast strains look into Critical Bilbo, Bubba Gift, they can have amber trichomes and orange hairs as fast as 45 days of 12/12. Not the most exotic stuff, but if you want speed...

It can be hard to find a pheno that is actually ready after 8 weeks, also if everything isn't perfectly dialed start to finish you can extend that timeframe, it also depends on environment, lighting etc..

Weed plants ripen from the top down, it's normal for lower buds to be less developed and ripe. As for smell, that could just be genetics again and also most plants develop the most aroma and terpenes near the end of their ripening phase.
