2 questions - How long till harvest and what type of bud could this be?

[Dank1231]

Here is the buds to my plant. The plant has been stressed a lot due to a lot of moving around and over fertilization. I'm surprised there is buds at all. But if you notice, compared to the other pictures the crown does not look to be filling out (3rd picture). This is obviously my first grow but it's smells so damn dank. Some of the best i have ever smelled. Where should I go from here? What should I do and how come it's taking so long since I switched 12/12 about 8-9 weeks ago. I know it's a sativa strain but is that really a reason why it's taking so long. And is it the reason it's trickier to grow indoors? Any feed back would be appreciated.

some pure sativas can go 17 weeks ... but it doesnt look like yours are one of those. Your closeups of the trichomes showing a good percentage of amber tells me that your plant is ready... or at least some of the buds are. Other buds that are showing with the white pistils still appear to be in full flower and not ready. I am pretty sure if this was mine, I would be doing a selective harvest of a few of the buds right now... and then wait a few weeks for the rest of them to catch up.

What light is the light source and wattage you are using? What are the dimensions of your grow area?

Hi, I guess it's ready you may get buds with amber trichs and leave other for week more. It looks fantastic

I would give her the full 3 months. I grow sativas and it does take them that long to mature. A gradual harvest is a good way to go. This allows the rest of the buds to finish maturing. It's going to be good smoke!
