is this ready to harvest?

[mamabig]

This plant has been indoors for 4 months, and is flowering. It's only 18 inches tall because I haven't been feeding it much, mostly just water, and some organic fish fertilizer (dumb, I know....should be using sugary things).

uh-oh, I have a picture to post, but don't know how yet. Usually in forums, I put {img}address{/img}, but here it put in a link to my website, and then I lose anonymity.

Can anyone tell me how/where to post pictures?

no way. I'm no expert, but I'd say you have at LEAST a few more weeks. The for sure way to tell is to get a 30x microscope and check the trichomes. If they are all clear, they're not ready. If half or more are cloudy, it's time to harvest, or very close. When the trichomes start turning amber, it's definetely time to stop flowering! This is from what I've read, and not from my actual experience.
(fyi) If you don't know what trichomes are, they are the very tiny bubbles, on top of the tiny hairs on the leaves and buds. They're full of magic
