here are a couple of pictures from my mobile but ill get some more with a descent camera when i have a chance (the close up picture is from approximately a week ago pistills are now turning orange and starting to curl)

Looks like you got a solid 2 weeks yet until she's ready. Plant looks real nice.

if you notice on the middle picture (took only hours ago) the top leaves are curling at the ends, is this a problem? i started flushing at week 7 with only water do you think this is too early? other than that she seems to be healthy and really starting to stink As soon as i get the chance ill get some close ups with a descent camera so you can see the pistills

Nah your plant looks very happy and healthy. That leaf curling is normal just be careful not to overwater her while flushing. I usually start flushing about 10 days before harvest. By the looks of your pics like I said in my earlier post you got about 2 weeks from when those pics were taken. Once you get about 75% orange and brown pistils you should be good to go. Ideally you should get a 420 scope and look for the trichome color. 80% cloudy and 20% amber is what I consider the perfect harvest time but some people can tell just by looking at the pistils. Post some more pics if ya can. Looks like your gonna have some nice smoke there. Enjoy

Yumm! Be patient !:jointsmile:

great, i thaught the leaf curling was bad. ill upload some nice close up shots of the main cola with a good camera today so you can see the pistills clearly. could anyone give a rough estimate on how much she will yeild as its my first grow and im not sure how much these autoflowering dwarfs produce, will the buds increase much in the next 2 weeks?ill be happy with 4-5 grams anything more is a bonus :jointsmile:

Pics look great dude. I'd say another 10-14 days and she gets the chop. She's prolly gonna pack on some more nice trich production over the next week. It's gonna be some good smoke. Enjoy

Great, cant wait till shes done now! can anyone estimate how many grams will come off her dry? i really havent a clue. i woulda said around 1/4 oz
