It seems the little hairs on the buds are turning brown, I've heard this is when you want to harvest. Most of the hairs are brown there are a few that are still clear. let me know what you think

I'd say leave it out for a bit more unless your getting frost soon. The real way to tell is to find something with the magnification of at least 30x and look at the trichroms(sp?) what you dont want is clear trich's. Go for a cloudy/discoloured look!
whats a trichome look like?
Heres a chart alot of people use. http://members.aol.com/badattituud/trichs.jpg
Those dont look ready.
Sometimes just a rainfall will trun the hairs brown. The hairs tell you nothing about it's maturity. Look at the link given above. It's all about the trichomes.
TGT
yeah, but I will have the same problem soon. I don't have a way to see the trichs.
not ready.. cheers
How many weeks have they been flowering?
Have 90-100 percent of the fan leaves turned yellow?
cheers
not quite ready. Looking good tho.
it's been flowering for maybe a month now, but it's a wierd plant it's almost like a bonsai pot plant, I have to keep it in a dark part of my yard to hide it, so the plant stayed very small but it has tons of buds on it. Thats why i thought it might mature faster because it's so small. It's a cool little plant and being my first grow I'm happy with it.
Next time I'm going to grow indoors with all cfls, the whole time
yes.. it does appear to be a very nice plant!!
congrats!!
