they are 79 days into flowering havent feed them in about 3 weeks and they are starting to get really yellow and brown around the main bud sites however there is still some green on the lower leafs for them to feed off of. So question being how long do I keep waiting fore the amber?

Your trichomes should be amber? What % is milky or cloudy? Looks ready to me but check the trics.

My plants have been flowering for about the same lenght of time, the trichomes are cloudy, but not amber and the pistls have withered/shrunk to nothing.
It's a small plant so I'm saying "fuck it" & harvesting it today.


Your's (the pistils) looks like they could do with another week maybe....but what do I know, I'm new to ll of this.

Best of luck.

What was you feeding her? Why did you stop? Flushing I guess? I don't flush. Your plant might of stressed and lack of mutes slowing it down maturing my thoughts. Looks close though and good job.

You had a 13-14 week strain my friend. You should have flushed at week 13. You jumped the gun and flushed her way to early. Or at least started giving her just water to early.
I would keep them in the dark for 3 days with NO light interuptions. This should help finish them off.
Starving them from week 7 isnt the wise thing to do. Always start your flush or plain water feedings after it stops shooting out white hairs/pistils 1/2 way down the plant and when the plants fan leaves start to turn yellow naturally. This is a good guide point to look for.

White widow famously goes longer then advertised and never believe advert when says 8-9weeks. Wait it out week or so or till see sight more change.

I really hope so, this is my first grow that actually might work out. I think I've done pretty good so far, just wish I would have feed her a couple of more times. Oh well live and learn i guess.
