Howdy.
I've got three lovely ladies under ~650W of Floro/CFL lighting, 46 days into flower.
They're all coming along nicely but i'm looking for input on when i should chop.
Here come the pics, i tried to snap ones of the whole plant, main cola, and some side nugs.:leaf::leaf:

Starting with my tallest lady, THSeeds Burmese Kush.

THSeeds website claims BuKu finishes in 50-55 days, but im not sure thats spot-on. The calyxes are starting to swell up now, but i'm thinking she's got another 2-3 weeks at the least. Any comments would be appreciated.

Now moving on, Next is my THSeeds S.A.G.E.

Im expecting another 2-3 on this one as well, but from what ive seen on posts around here i may be in for 4-5 more weeks. Anyone have experience with SAGE?

Third is my shortest plant, Reserva Privada LA Confidential Cheese. Shes always been shorter than the other two, and is filling out nicely. I have no clue when she may finish, so again im looking for any input :lol:

Only receding pistils on the first plant.
The calyxes do look at bit swollen but it's not ready yet.

How are the trichomes looking?

You need to check for those 3 things to determine maturity.
 
The way i chop my girls are by the trichomes,i take my microscope and individually check all my plants i look for a mix of cloudy and amber trichs then shes ready for me,as soon as the trichomes turn cloudy u can pick,clear trichomes are not pyscho-active and your smoke would be pre mature and not to its full real potency... waiting is the hardest part ,get a handheld microscope and enjoy loooking at your plants while your waiting!
