She is definitely not done.
Willing to say she will pack it on some more in the next 2 weeks.
Check the trichomes. You want most (90%+) to at least be milky in color. The more amber trichs, the more body-stone. More milky, more heady.
More than 50% amber and the THC starts to degrade.
When the trichomes are NEAR your liking, begin to flush. How long is up to the grower. I always go 7+ days.

hey flo, what do think about leaving the lights off for 24 or 48 hours right before you pick the buds? i didnt do it on my last grow but im thinking about doing it on my current which should be ready in a week or so. have you done this to help produce more resin right at the end? this should help you out to tito.

I have done it at times and I noticed a difference.
The way I did it was:
If I normally had to water every 3 days, I cut the lights on day 4 after the last flush and leave them off for 2 days.
Don't leave the soil moist. I make them use all the moisture, then cut the lights when they think they're about to drink (i.e. on day 4).
Dry soil makes them pump out trichs as a defense also.

Now for hydro, I don't know if cutting the lights off will help.

do u think if i let the water almost run out n cut the lights should be the same right???
