A little more info is needed. How long has she been in flower?

I grow WW and I harvest at 8 weeks for smoke and 11 weeks for meds (pain and sleep)…

Not yet!

But when can be a personal preference.

All those white hair looking things will turn orange. The buds are still growing!

It is recommended to have a way to check your trichromes, so you can really determine when the plant is ready.

Welcome to the community.

Mine is about 2 weeks older than yours and it’s still not ready.

Check your tricomes, it’s the best way to tell. Zooming in on the first picture I can see some clear ones but it’s tough to get an overall feel.

Look a bit early BUT really depends on taste. I would personally let the hairs all brown then look at trichs. My gg this round is coming out early. Gets too strong.

I’ve grown 4 white widow autos from here. They all went a day or two within 3 months total time seed to chop.

So if you planted Dec 2nd I’d wait until March to chop

I have always been a bit confused about the timing of auto- WW. Thank you. I read the instructions on ILTGM web site and I found this:

If you have autoflowering seeds, you’ll begin sprouting them the second half of this month (May). (this conflicts with instructions for April which says “begin sprouting then the second half of this month). They need three months of summer to grow.
What I want to know is: HOW MANY DAYS FROM THE TIME THE SEEDS START TO SPROUT (first 2 leaves) TO THE TIME TO HARVEST? It sounds like if I start counting when they sprout, add 90 days +/-, I should be ready for OUTDOOR harvest in Michigan. ??

90 days from soaking the seed to chop

Good deal! Thanks man. Last year I grew “regular” seeds; this year I ordered auto-flower by mistake.

I’m glad I saw this post.

One of my 2 white widow autos emerged on 11/30 and I just chopped it on 3-6. I plan on 10 to 14 weeks after emergence

And that one turned out fine
