Hey there Joyful , looks like they're doing well but they're going a bit slow right? That's because the nutrition they're getting is missing just a little something. Right now you're adding NPK and a chelation agent called top max, top max is humic acid which breaks down the nutrients and the minerals in the soil . But what i can see is some purple stems and shiny leafs. The shiny leafs is from too much N which in turn is from lack of cal mag which is used to regulate the nutrient uptake of the plant. purple stems is a tell tale sign indeed. It is absolutely worth it to add cal mag, or if you're not into spending dollars on cannabis products at least some epsom salt. Add either one of these at every watering , remember to pull up a bit on the NPK, and you should be totally fine as long as you keep the top max going. So to answer your question, it's hard to say when it's coming down but it should be way fatter before you harvest. Sometimes trichomes can look milky or white if you're at the wrong magnification, remember to go 40x minimum in magnification otherwise all the trichs look white actually. Anyways hope this helps ! 🚀

Checked out the link and the I would say they have about 4 weeks to go my friend. Wait until all the pistils have darkened and all the trichomes are cloudy, you want to harvest at this time because the THC levels are at their highest. Hopefully I answered your question and remember Happy Growing and Free your mind one puff at a time.

Hey! First and second are about the same. Pistils still white and sticking out. The third is a bit more advanced, amber pistils are starting to curl in. Best way to check this out is looking at the trichomes. Using a 60x jewelers loupe, you can find it anywhere for 5€.. I would say you've got a couple weeks left. Clear trichomes haven't reached their full potency, cloudy ones are full of THC and amber are losing THC while gaining CBN. So depending on your preference whether you want more of a head high or body high. I normally start to look at trichomes when there are about 50/50% white and amber pistils. I harvest when after examining and finding 70% cloudy trichomes and 30% amber trichomes. For me that's a prefect combination, depending on the strain as well. Have in mind if you use nutrients you'll need to flush the roots, watering only with PHed water for at least a week. Happy growing!
