I grew half and half - six 80/20 Sativa and six 50/50 Indica/Sativa.

The Sativa flowered first; the hybrid lagged far behind until the very end when it took off.

The Sativa bud growth seemed more linear where the hybrid seemed more exponential given the same time-line; in both cases, towards the end of flowering, they got pretty fat. Unfortunately, mother nature stepped in and put the kybosh on my grow a couple of weeks early.

My hypothesis is that my Sativa (Maui Wowie), given the drastic difference in latitude between where it originates and where I was growing it (New England), probably prompted the early flowering, but that is just conjecture on my part.

Maybe someone with a greater understanding of the science behind this will comment.

Not a expert here but my sativa look closer to done with naked eye but once I put the microscope on it I can really tell my trichomes still clear on buds from what I’ve read it’s the finish that takes longer but I might be wrong there a lot of knowledge here someone smart will chime in good luck but I would wait on the sativas

I was a solid D student, my option means squat.

I can't claim to be "smart", but I can regurgitate what several people have told me so far, which is the trichomes should be cloudy with a small handful - maybe 10% - starting to amber. Personally, I'm hoping that my earlier than expected harvest will yield something worth keeping me out of the dispensary for a while!

There is something to be said for investing just enough effort to pass! At West Point, the GOAT award is given to the person who achieves the bottom of their class! If you ponder this, you will come to realize that it's really quite an accomplishment. Being able to answer enough question wrong to be dead last without failing means that you know the material very well.
