No. There are still too many white pistils. When most of them are amber colored, start checking the trichomes using magnification. Many growers use a jeweler's loupe. They cost about $15 to $20. Mine is 15X. Here's a ripeness chart.

Hey Dank......

I love some early harvests, but......

You'll know it's close to harvest when your........

Arghhh.....

Truth be told....

Your plant looks like 5, maybe 6 weeks from flip......

From seed, not clone....

If this is your first plant, drop more seeds!!!!!!!

Then....

Wait at least, seriously, 2 weeks before even thinking of ......

That gives you time to get those seeds growing enough to clone.....

When you start cloning,

We start playing with some different harvest options!!!!!!!

Harvest times are preference specific....

Clear trichs are fun but can be jittery....plus there is way more loss of yield.....

Cloudy trichs are the plants fullest/truest max potential.....but yield still suffers....

Amber trichs are losing strength, yet gaining strength.....more drowsy, couch effect....

Keep us posted if you can.....

She looks great!!!

Chill, Daddy.

She’s about 9 week since flip! Shes a rescue plant from a friends crop what been chopped (he thought was dead) obviously wasn’t haha.
So I revegged it, fed it, cared for it and ended up with this!
Don’t know what genetics or strain it is (he said grandmommy something) can’t see it being grandmommy purple I’ve had a look at some grow diary’s and doesn’t look like that strain YET!

Sometimes plants will express their traits differently.....

Totally possible it's not a purple, or whatever it's claiming to be.....

She looks happy, that's all that counts!!!!

Give her definitely 2 more weeks, at least.....

Keep doing what you're doing cause she's gettin closer!!!!!

The estimated time to harvest is... well... an estimate. Some folks debate whether the flip date is the best beginning date. The idea is it's better to start counting after stretching is complete and buds appear. Also, from what I can see of the leaves, this plant could have sativa traits, and that means a longer flowering time. They can go a month longer.

Yes I thought so myself after abit of research. Sativas go for like 12/14 maybe longer don’t they?

Yes. They can. They also tend not to show many amber trichomes.
