Auto White Widow How Much Longer?

This is my auto white Widow here at day 113 and I’m wondering how much longer she has. Leaves are still green, I don’t see any amber trichomes and buds are rock hard. How do they look?

They look damned fine. So much for 70 days. I've had several autos go 17 weeks.

Alaska summer. Endless light. They get fairly big. Had to finish inside 2 years.

I got a white widow XXL auto. It’s on day 65. Looks like mine has 2 weeks to go.

Yours looks pretty much done. Minus the no brown trichs.

How dose yoUrs smell. Mine had zero smell up till a week or so ago.

The one in the front is whit widow XXL

I’m using a 300watt led light maybe that’s why. I don’t see any amber trichomes should I wait or chop?

What trichs are you seeing now.
Mostly milky?

I see some amber on the top now but any buds below that on the side and bottom I see nothing

You can harvest your main tops if they are done and let the rest of the plant mature.

I had never done this personaly. But have sean many that do.

I like to harvest all at once. How much longer until I see amber on the lower buds? Another week or so?

Hard to tell. But when the top premium stuff is what you want harvest it all. Then drop the lower not so developed stuff into the trim pile.

It would be a waste to let the top colas go too long for the sake of some lower buds.

I’m 4 days into curing my bud and the buds seems to be a little dry and crunchy. I heard somewhere it’s good to put a fresh fan leaf in the jar for a day to soften it up. Is that true? I have another plant growing and I can take a fan leaf off. Should I try it?

Not sure on the fan leaf. But dry and crunchy in 4 days is too quick of a dry.

I am usually 7-10 days.

Seal the bud up in a jar or bag and let it sweat a bit.

4 days into curing jarred up I already dried for a week. What do you mean keep them sealed in the jar? For how long?

Try for 24hrs. Open the jar and see if the buds are moist again. If they are. Let dry for a bit and then back in th jar.

Usual the outside part will be crunchy but the inside is moist still.

Dry and cure is a art. Their are good write ups on here. Definitely worth a good read.

Here are some pics. What do you think? Almost done? It’s day 119. Still very few Amber trichomes on the side and lower buds...

Looks like it’s fattened a bit compared to the last pics you posted.

I’d cut it now
If you have some ambers on the side lower stuff. The plant will never finish all the same at the same time.
