@BB420 thanks. Most of the pistils have already turned brown though?

Its been 6 or 7 weeks since this started flowering - its supposed to be an 8 week strain (HFH Tine green).

its an 8 week plant. 8x7/56 days.. you say 42-49 days (you're not sure?) .. I usually add a week or two to the breeders flowering time to make up for the transition/stretch period.... and harvest 56 day plants in 65-80 days.

or go to radio shack, buy on of their $10 microscopes

and look at tricombs.. < best bet anyway

EDIT: good looking plant

Thanks All.

@snook - thanks ; ) I'm not living in the US so dont have access to radioshack - although I did pick up one of those loupes years ago when I was over.

@ Fatburt its a hybrids from Hell Tine Green (White Super 07/ Danish Gold * Hash Plant 2.

@b326 I got reasonably close ups with my phone (its not coming across on the resolution allowed here. Looks like they're 50/50 clear/ clouded.

Its an outdoor plant - I reckon it she started flowering cycle on 2nd August.

hard to imagine at this stage is there much calyx growth left. I already had a touch of mould but she's pretty hardy. Will leave it and see how it goes I think..
 
I would be watching the weather reports constantly at this stage. If there was any chance of rain I would definitely consider taking it down now, otherwise might as well let her go till the recommended 8 weeks or more. Along with the differences in the effects, the flavor and smell can develop a lot in the last few weeks too.

Wait till 50Percent are amber

I usually go 75-80 days for 8 week plant. trics are about 25%-30% red. maybe i'll try another week.. so by this math, the 120 day strain I have going (@80 days blm right now) that I was going to let go another 14 days (135 days) should go ??? 140 - 150 days... she'll be ready for Christmas. Merry Christmas.:tree:

Harvest strain seedbank announce 8 week?? All right
IN small
 
May want to try to put a cover over her for a few days, at least till the weather starts drying out again. An inexpensive pop up tent or something, would help prevent the buds from getting too saturated with moisture. Id hate to see all your hard work get spoiled by molds this late in the season.
