Re: How much longer!!!
you will probably see the fan leaves starting to turn yellow as the plant sucks all the nuterents out of them. When you see most of the white hairs turn a amber color its ready to pick.

Re: How much longer!!!
I never saw a plant with just one straight stalk.I guess you didn't pinch the tops to get them to split. Never the less,the buds look good.I would let them grow,until late November early December so they are much bigger and potent.My plant has about 30-40 branches,with 15-30 buds on each.

Re: How much longer!!!
they tend to turn purple when they are cold. Is it getting a little chilly during the nights? If so, then that what I'd say it's from.

Re: How much longer!!!
Well I'm in Texas too,and I had a friend who grew in Ohio and his plants never were taken until the second freeze,usually end Nov. begginning Dec. Here we can go either way.Can be in the 80's in Dec. , or in the 30's.My thoughts are 1st freeze won't kill them,2nd will.Just my opinion after seeing how my friend did it.By the way,he had some of the best I've smoked and sold it for $20.00 a gram with no discount on qaunity in 1986,87,88.He started with a few plants in 1980,and pollinated a female to get seeds.Every year he pollinated one or two females for seeds for the next year.I was around to smoke his 10th generation and was it ever good.fanman said:

Re: How much longer!!!
purple could be a phosphorus deficiency...common at the end of season. And the cold can do it too. you're getting close...2-3 weeks. Get a 30x scope from radio shack and check the trichomes.

Re: How much longer!!!
you didnt use any nutes at all did you? something isnt right, you grow it under fluoros and flower it under the same? thats weak for a harvest, under fluoros with nutes i yielded 3 or 4 times that much.
give me a bit of info, i would love to know what you did, as we can help ya next time around yield more, albiet, you did get the hard part out of the way, first yield.
the coloring can be due to stress the plant is induring, and or strain characteristic.

Without nutrients, the buds will get no bigger than what you currently see.

Re: How much longer!!!
I'd let it go for another 5--7 days.
But remember--this is your plant...you grew it. So if you harvested to-day no one would give you any grief.
I know that the waiting is the hardest part. So if you're getting antsy go ahead and take 'er down.
