8 1/2 weeks in flowering. Good Pics. Help

This is my first grow. Trichs are milky and amber. How much longer do you think I have? She is small only 18in. tall. Do you think the green will be any good? Is it sativa? Any comments welcome. Thanks

Only curing and smoking will answer that. You are the judge.

you can harvest at any time now. the longer you wait the more stoney the high.

it is a small indica and as said, you need to smoke it to know if it's good

congrats on a good first grow

Looks idica to me. If ALL the triches are milky AND amber then ur pretty much done man. Cut the bitch down, trim and hang it. Assuming ur triches are all as u say, the smoke should be a bit shy of putting ur ass on the couch, so ya, u should like it. How many ambers are u seein?

I would say about 25%. What gives it away to be indica. How long being smaller buds should I hang dry them?

Did you use just the one cfl?

Leaf shape, bud structure, and the fact they're nearly done at 8 1/2 weeks.

Hang them till they are done. Depending on when last watering took place, size, density, humidity, airflow, and temperature it may take 3-12 days. When the stems start to snap instead of bend, they're dry and can be cured.

Ok thanks landragon. I used 8 - 26 watt CFLs. 6500K for veg and 2700K for Flowering. I did my final flush yesterday morning. How important is it to cut them when the soil is dry?

Any tips on drying? Should a fan be close to the hanging bud? Does it matter if it dry in 3 days due to small non dense buds? Thanks

I have never subscribed to any theories about letting them get really dry before harvesting. If the plant needs water, water it. Worst scenario is an extra day or two of dry time. Happy buds are potent buds if the genes allow it.

I only hang the main branches personally. Just cut the branch off the plant, trim it, hang, and repeat. All my small nugs I just put in a bowl. Just be sure u let em dry in the DARK, very important.
