How long until my buds are finished and how will I know

The pistils will be mainly brown, and retract. Your best method is to check the trichomes with 60+ magnification. Seventy to 90% cloudy gives you maximum THC, while amber will give a more sedative high.
Some strains take up to 12 weeks from the appearance of the first flowers to mature. It's going to be at least four weeks to as many as eight before your plants are ready to harvest. The buds have a lot of growing to do yet. If you know the strain, check on-line for the flowering time.

I concur, with salty. Get yourself a jewelers loupe or digital microscope.
I'd say look at pics of what a harvested bud looks like
You have 6+ weeks to go

Light/ppfd will have a significant impact on flower development as well. What light are you using? How many days into flower before you saw the first pistils?

2 weeks, imo a sativa dominant strain. Expect greater then 8 weeks flowering maybe as long as 12(as salt said). As far as 3 led grow lights that's a minimal amount of information, could be anywhere from 120 watts draw to 2700 watt draw.

Can I still clone my plants even though there budding ?
Yes, but the clones will be at the same stage of growth as the mother plant. They will need to be re-vegged, as well as growing a new set of roots. You might be better of re-vegging the mother herself after harvest. Once she's re-vegged, it will be easier for the clones to establish themselves.
