Going on what you say, a staggered harvest seems the way to go. Considering you're getting close to 10 weeks, go for it. If they're indeed approaching 80% amber, :detective1: those tops are beyond done.

Oddly, the middle shots show virtually no amber. Additionaly, they seem overly leafy. Are you still feeding, & did she get a good flush when transitioning to flower nutes? Looks like an excess of nitrogen.
Is the whole plant still that green, or are the fans yellowing in areas not visible in the pics?
Not being familiar with the strain, I'm just making wild guesses. In the middle pics it kinda looks like she hasn't gone through the final swell? Yet, very few clear trichs showing, the majority look cloudy to my eye.

Dunno, but think you may be correct? Yes, still feeding!! Alot of the leaves are yellowing/wilting but your guess is as good as mine being I DON'T KNOW?! Think I'm gonna do a "staggered harvest". starting tomorrow. No haven't "flushed"..... What is the best way to do so.... Just aqua x a few days? In the dark here with an outside grow. Peace

Yes, at the next watering, just straight water...and plenty of it. :glugglug:
(I'm thinking she's still in the pot) You'll want to see a good amount of water coming out the bottom. Not over a few days, do it all at once if she's slowing down on the amount of water she's using. You don't want the soil saturated for too long a period.
She should be using up all the stored goodies in the leaves. She won't if there is an abundance of nutes available in the root-zone.:eat:
FF recommends a flush on the transitions in their most recent schedule, they didn't in earlier versions. I noticed a pretty good build-up in the soil when I first started using their products, before they were recommending the flushes. That's probably why she looks so green. I use an ec/ppm meter to gauge the flush, if you don't have one just a _real_ good soaking will help a good deal.
Also, they say to follow the schedule to harvest. We want to stop a week or more before harvest, in soil, for our purposes. Nitrogen imparts a pretty unmistakable, objectionable taste to the buds. A long cure can help a good bit to eliminate the taste, but better to starve her beforehand, imo. :weedpoke:

Think that considering all of the facts, methinks that she can go another 3 weeks!!! Everyday I wake up she's getting "fatter". So, will give her a good feed of the "high octane nute" Cha Ching & then slow down visa vie exactly what you stated in the post!! Check out some of the shots I just grabbed late this afternoon.

Excellent! That makes a lot of sense, explains why the last set of pics looked like she hadn't filled-out. :thumbsup: Kinda threw me when you said the tops were showing so much amber.
Looks to be right on pace with my buddies outdoor, then. He's expecting everything to finish between the end of Sept thru 2nd week Oct. Cool beans Esteban!

Yea bro:
Figured it will take a few more weeks as well cuz all of the research etc, etc, shows me that there is that "final push" to fatten up the fruit! While checking out the big momma did ya have a chance to sneak a peak at the indica's...... visa vie, do you believe that she will make it thru a semi-cold fall given my general area? Best guess is possibly yea, but again, am an optimist & can visualize an end product. Doesn't necessarily need to be "mj" cuz I do this with all of me projects. Also have 5 "Super Skunk" that hopefully comes to fruition!!! Any insight into this?

This girl should be interesting come November. She's an Indica of unknown origin, Not Bag seed but a gift from "Seed Company" when ya grab like 10. So they threw in this cool baby & can't wait to see the results. Feeding her the prescribed regimen of FF nutes with the occasional High Octane "Beastie Bloomz" since she's on her way.
