ballpark estimate on harvest

Update: I'm thinking tomorrow for harvest? I snipped a small bud off last weekend, dried in paper bag next to my plant, and in 4 days it seemed to smoke pretty good, although the dried bud looked a little funny, maybe notndried enough....
Anyways check the new pics and I'd really love some feedback, because I'm fairly excited about my first grow and this is the only place I can share it ( with you fine folks) they aren't the best pictures, and It's hard to get a clear shot of the main bud, but the side ones look good to me!( I realize the plant needs watering, and I did given it one last little sip for the night or I can give it more if you think I need to hold off on harvest...

Be careful not to confuse the failing fan leaves as a sign that she needs watering, pay attention to the smaller leaves around the bud now and the weight of the container. Still looks like she needs more time to me. Are you scoping her?

I snipped a small leaf off one of the buds and then dropped it. I still checked it out under a 20x scope and the what trichs weren't smooshed looked cloudy.. I plan on looking for a better scope or magnifier tomorrow, and check again.

Well, as another member told me when I harvested my first plant, "Goodluck ripe congradulations on your first harvest some people don't make it its a feat in itself!" Same to you. If you need someone to smoke test your weed let me know lol.

:leaf:

Hey thanks for the feedback! ( the serious replays, not the super hysterical pound kids) I got a new scope today and I'll recheck the trich's tonight. If I have to wait another week, I'll have to wait... ;(

Hey thanks! Its so simple.. I bought a 60x100 magnifyer from Radio Shack for $12.95, and balanced my cell phone on an ashtray ( you can experiment with whatever it will balance on ) so it sat just perfect over the lens.
Cheap and easy. ;)

It stays between 74-78 degrees. I have run a heater in both my grow rooms all along. It's been in the flower room since 11/16 without much change in anything but watering...

vinegar diluted bigtime ph down
baking soda diluted bigtime ph up
Apple Cider Vinegar is a good ph down, it is more mild than regular vinegar (Apple Cider Vinegar has a ph of about 4.2-5.0, whereas distilled white vingear has a ph of about 2.2 [about the same as lemon juice]) plus ACV has lots of trace minerals, and trace minerals are terribly important due to the law of minimums and such. Just a thought
Remember it has to "all natural" apple cider vinegar...it will be the darker vinegar not the clear...there is a difference...peace...and it's a tablespoon per gallon drops it .5 good luck...
