Do these white widow buds look ready for harvest?

Was curious if these buds were ready to harvest? The plants seem to not be finishing....week 9 of flowering stage, widow should only take 8-9 weeks...and mine seem to be stuck at about week 6 1/2 or 7...any suggestions would be appreciated.

what do you mean by stuck? if you mean size-wise; from what i understand, the buds stop producing and then begin to focus on ripening up.



Note: i am writing this post blazed so forgive me if i dont make much sense.

I grew some widow, not unusual to go 12 weeks or longer. VV

also from what i understand, it is not uncommon for the hairs sometimes to remain white throughout the flowering stage in the 'white' family.

yes white widow takes 10 to 12 sometimes. dont pay too much attention to hair color get a trich scope at radio shack and harvest based on trichromes. some strains hairs never all redden
