that is the best way for sure. you can count the days and be pretty close, if you're experienced you can read a plant quite easily, but I'd suggest going to Radio Shack, and buying the $15 adjustable pocket scope they have. They're sweet, and cheap.

C'mon now, you can answer that yourself. It'll be mostly a head high with "a lil bit of" a body high. 1 + 2 always equals 3.

ok-- if you already DID check the trichomes, what was the need for this particular question? You HAD your answer!
However:
#1- manythings cause hairs to turn early, temps, low humidity, stress, certain strains, etc.... so can not go by the hairs
#2- Just counting days doesn't always work because they vary between pheno's of the same plant strains-- hence the breeder saying 65-75 days.. HOWEVER: this can be your guideline if you have no other option- but remember- you do NOT start counting as soon as they pre-sex or the day they go 12/12--- you count day 1 when you see them actively budding-- multiple calyx's at multiple sites....
#3- knowing the general time needed allows for flushing- then checking the crystals confirm the actual chop time... usually when all are cloudy... not everyone waits for amber- as it changes the balance of THC/CBD's....
