hi guys.
this plant is nearly ready going by a closeup of the tricomes.
but i am still new at this.
it smells gorgeous as well lol.
how long to go? any opinions?
my guess is 2 or 3 days.

My opinion would be about a week or so. Tough to see trichomes from pictures but with the amount of white hairs and what I can make out the trichomes are a little bit milky and you want some amber. Do you have a jewelry loupe? That is best to look at them.

You look to be a little further then the original poster but you have further to go as well. Your pistils have browned and will begin to recede/ the buds will swell giving the look of pistils receding. You need a scope to look at the pistils to gauge ripeness

this is a white widow auto flower. It is time for harvest, eight weeks plus a couple of days of flowering. Why is it so small( 17 inches ), and so sparse? And why does it have a single finger leaves? I have grown other white widow auto flower plants and none of them look like this one.

That last plant took after the ruderalis.
when creating the auto flower plants, the offspring can always throw back genetics from the mothers and fathers of your plants parents aswell… theres a massive line of genetics and years of fine tuning the strains to make them what they are today…
But nothing is guaranteed in nature.

So it’s nothing I did? It’s just a genetic mistake.

I would say not my friend, it definitely looks ruderalis dominate.
I have never known or heard of a way to make plants grow with one finger leaves etc its in the genetics mate.
You have nan and pop to thank for that.

great answer @Uncle-edd. welcome to the forums!
@BamBam6 that is part of why i won’t do auto’s in my tent… consistency of output. seen anywhere from 1 oz to 10 oz’s from one plant. i grow in tent and can’t take that kind of chance with output.
i think autos are perfect though for outside grow in northern climes where you don’t have much time before frost and 13 hr days.
Monkman, Auto’s can be crazy different can’t they. I like them though. My last grow before leaving on my journey I had a bubblegum that could not be contained! It grew so fast, and so high with an end yield that brought a tear to my eye, lol. I had grown three of that strain prior, and did quite well. Improving each time, but that last one wow. I’d like to take all the credit for her, but I think her parents had something to do with it. I did something odd with her too; I adjusted her ph using only apple cider vinegar. She had a very cool flavor and kicked like a mad mule.
