Apparently a CBD strain with more medicinal use than recreation.
Good meds for pain , anxiety, etc.
So if you were looking for head high , this one , not so much.

Do you know how long the flower time is on this strain?

There is never really a time table in flower ... It will ONLY matter at the trichomes , to know when they are ready. Any breeder ( known or not ) doesn't really change the flower time.
If you are 4 weeks , then DAYS ( counting that way ) , would show you are only at 30ish flowering ....... so look at least 40-50 more days at least. Start looking closely around week 7 ... That is when most swelling us going on ( sometimes starting a little earlier ) .
Pistils will darken and twist / recede toward calyx. Grab a magnifying glass / loupe and check triches at BUD , not leaf . Look at different ones to judge them ... Forget looking for Amber , some strains do it , some don't.
Triches only.

The swelling normally happens week 5 to 6, after that there will be mostly just ripening happening in the shorter running strains.
The line of clones I run gets harvested on day 52ish. They are doing so well under the Samsung lights it would not surprise me if they run longer this time.
The shitter you treat a plant, i.e. overfeeding, underwatering etc... the faster it will flower.

Thanks I was thinking 9 weeks was average and to start checking trichomes about that time but i think this strain might be one of the longer flower times. I just need to know when to start flushing.
For a first time grow, you have some incredible genetics here. Midnight Oil is Ecsd x Sour diesel ibl. It's been around for @ 10 yrs. It originates in Maine I believe. Every review I've ever heard. People claim it's the best pot they've ever smoked. I have one waiting for me that's going outdoors. I can't wait Yield on the MO is legendary as well.
Ten weeks minimum.When you think it's ready...wait a week.
Actually my friend that sent them to me is from Maine.
I'm using 1000 watt led lights, I have 4 in each tent. I use 300 watt for seed and clones and 600 to 1000 for veg and flower
