About 12 of these tops, “colas”, are over 12"long. They remind me of the “Thai sticks” in the 70’s

The cola’s are fattening up. They are starting to need more help standing up. I know what a problem to have 
The biggest one was resting way down when I got home today. Had to add another stake to tie it up. Maybe a 4th of July harvest 
Today is 7 weeks, day 49 of 12/12

50 days today. Buds are really getting full. ILGM says indoor 56 days. I know this is only a guidline but the buds are really swelling but all the pistils are still freshly white. Not a hint of color change yet. I have to think 2-3 weeks still. At least. I have the scope set up to take trich pics so I will try tomorrow.
In general how much do buds usually swell in the last 3-4 weeks? Is there a timeline of when pistils start to turn to finish?

That is when MOST of the swell happens. They will double in size or more in another 3-4 weeks, I bet. You may have the 77 day phenotype 
As far as a timeline, just keep an eye on everything, and when you think they’re ready, give them another week.

I added a few stakes to hold up the colas. They are sticky and smell good. I am going to set the scope up later to show some trich shots. Here are the plants this morning.

Watered again today. The colas are doing well. I counted about 16 that are over a foot long and swelling nicely, about the size of a golf ball. The all white pistils are now 50% colored now 
Not long now I think. 1-3 weeks? Not giving any more nutes, just water from here on out. Needs water every 2 days now.

Girls tops are getting thick. I am one week now of just water no nutes. I think I will continue just water till done. Looking through 30x loupe the trichs are about 75% cloudy and the pistils are maybe 30% brown/orange. Today is day 61 of flower so I am watching the trichs more than the pistils and going to cut at close to 100% cloudy. Maybe this weekend or early next week.

Today is day 63. In a couple buds I would say 90+% cloudy and a couple buds 60-70% cloudy.I sampled 3-4 buds on possibly 2 different plants. With the 30x loupe it is much more clear to see but the pics I think show it a bit also. On the second pic I think is the one I see a few clear. I have 5 plants so I may just pic a day and the one I think is all cloudy…harvest. then the next day the same so it would take me 5 days to finish the harvest.
When you look at the pics do you see/agree with what I see? @kw_Bat @MattyBear @Missiles @monkman @Covertgrower @shindig153 @dbrn32

I agree that first pic shows quite a few cloudy. I think you have a good plan to harvest them

This waiting at the end is nerve racking. If I wait ill next weekend, the 29th and 30th I will be at 72-73 days. Then if I do a plant a day the last would be 76-77 days. I wish I could just go to sleep and wake up at harvest time!
