Its been roughly 7 weeks into flowering and my buds still look small but im not sure if they're done or not. Growing with 12 cfls not sure the wattage or lumens off top of my head. Is it ready for harvest???

I am by no means and expert but i think they just need more light maybe pick up a bossled or spyder farmer from ebay
I would say just harvest now order the led and start a new roumdnwhen it comes in after thos dry u arent gonna habe much anyways
 
Thanks for the input im currently looking into mars hydo led but will check out the ones mentioned. Yea i was thinking about harvesting soon dont expect much its my first grow.... did i mention ive had this goin for about 5 months.
 
Hey Spader, welcome to the forum. Do you have one of those hand-help microscopes to see the trichomes up close? That's really the best way to tell if your buds are ready.

They look nice n sticky icky, I don't see a lot of pistils, but I saw some brown/red ones. It may be a small harvest, but it can still be real sweet!!!
 
No im looking into getting a microscope for my next grow i kinda just jumped into this one when i found the seed. Im just learning as i go.
 
Looks like you are off to a great start. You will have some bud and some frosty leaf material for some butter or oil. Great to see people with the 'just do it' attitude.
 
Flush with black strap molasses for a week and they will fatten up a little. Just like humans do with sugar lol. You need to get a loupe on the trichromes for a closer look, it's hard to tell in the pics but it looks close.
 
Hi spader, I would flush and chop asap if I were you. The sugar leaves are starting to yellow, and I see lots of opaque trichomes from what I can see. If you can, get a macro lens for your camera and get some close ups of the calyxes, not the sugar leaves and check the trichs.
 
Target has an organic brand or your local health food store. My leaves start yellowing around week 7 also but i get a nice dark sugar coating from the flush!
 
Ill second the loop for starters.Under 2$ and works with any/most cameras as a lens to get pics!I got a 20-40x Microscope and its damn hard trying to keep it still even without smoking!!
 
Hey spader welcome to the forum mate!!!May i bump this one to tell you about Viparspectra instead of Mars Hydro? Watt for Watt cheaper on amazon and has some great reviews!!
 
Hey man,i wasn't following cause i was busy,nice to see you got your first harvest!!Make sure to follow GWE's guide on drying them and curing them before you smoke that beautiful first bud of yours!!
As i said,i wasn't following,may i ask what strain this is? Im looking at the buds in the pictures above and i was wondering how damn fat they would be if you did more right move in this grow,they do seem small but so fat,i mean fluffy,puffy!!Good to have YOUR own weed mate,enjoy the satisfaction and welcome again!!
 
I forgot to ask I just found it in my bag one day... I wish I would've asked but it was some really bomb.and the smell is really strong stunk up the whole house while trimming.
 
Did you at least flush a couple times? Congrats on your first harvest! Learn and improve on the next one!
