How much time before the chop chop?

Please help me out guesstimating, I flipped them on 12/4, my calendar says 14 to 21 days before harvest but I used bud blood which I read may bring the end of flowering earlier, like a week or something. Let me know what you think, thanks. Grow details below. 2 pics are thru my loupe, best I could do.

40-60%? I would say if you want to be a zombie fused to the couch.

It's all about personal preference though - Cheers
 
Hmmm, maybe I was too vague. The lack of pistils is what prompted my post. I've seen enough healthy top shelf buds to know they're missing. Or not as numerous as they're supposed to. I'd like to know how and if important it is and what could prevent it on my next grow. First time growing, I'd rather kill the power if I'm wasting it on a shitty crop, my next batch is about ready to go in the flower room. Thanks for your opinion and time.
 
It looks like a high leaf to bud stain....hairs are there...
not all strains all super loaded with pistils...
Tons of sugar leaves on there
 
Yes! I like info. I like being in the light. Darkness blows. I knew frosty sugar leaves are important but didn't know if it was good enough , good to know about pistils differences. Thanks again green, or should we call you Greenweedeasy?
 
I do not envy your trimming hand or your back in a week or 2.... leafy monsters.... I'd say your schedule sounds about right.

I'd get a jump on them, when you start flushing, I'd start trimming fan leaves...
 
As long as you get the effects you're looking for it shouldn't really matter how it turns out.
I know people that have turned down buying an oz simply because they didn't like the appearance but in doing so they missed out on some pretty awesome stuff.
 
Trichome quantity can be a bit misleading. You could have a plant covered in them but the potency levels in them are low. On the other hand you could have a plant with not much frost yet the stuff that is there is of a crazy high potency.
 
Hey guys, thanks for stopping by! A grower friend of mine (remember that pic of the bud snowflake) just stopped by to lend me a fresh pair of eyes. After much toking and brain storming it looks like a combo of different things might be at play. My night temps have most likely been too low too early. Moving it from 62 to 77 now, all day all night. The strain itself. Using bud blood at the wrong time. So I'll finish this grow out of pride, stubbornness, curiosity and eagerness to learn from my stupid ass mistakes. I most likely won't be able to sell this batch so live and learn! It'll make good personal stash I'm sure!
There's a consensus though regarding the time left, 2,3 weeks. I'll quit panicking and watch them grow. Just to double check start flushing when?
 
What was temperture during lights on...before you decide to change temp of lights off......

Should be at least 10° different...cooler when lights off
 
Matter of preference I guess... I prefer to flush sooner than later. The plant, if green and healthy can sustain itself just fine on plain water in late flower.
 
I had them on 75 during daytime and 63 at night with a deadband of 3 degrees. Rh at 35%. Went with the idea of cold temps to boost purple of grape ape. Started that idea way too early I'm afraid. Reconsidering the need for it. What temps do you recommend at this stage? And thanks for the help again and again...I'll smoke you up properly some day...
 
I'm feeding them right now but thinking maybe it should be the last round of nutes? Then phed water? Any carbs and sugars or calmag still? What do you think? Like I said best estimate is 14 to 21 days from harvest
 
I'd cut the nutes in half of what you're feeding now for the next feeding or 2. Then cut them in half of that, then plain water for approx last week. Each of these 3 stages should be about the same length. Any type of gradual decline in nutrients should work, then you don't need to worry as much if you feel the itch to chop em. I personally like to see some yellowing leaves late in flower, then you know the nutes are all but used up.
