little heavy on the nitrogen there..
but they are still green !
You still have weeks to go.
When the white hairs turn dark and start receding into the buds, Start scoping the trichomes for cloudy with a mix of amber.

doesn't look like they have plumped up yet i'd give them a few more weeks
keep in mind you start counting flower time from the first pre flowers showing not when you change the light cycle
they look 4 to 5 weeks into flower so 3 ro 4 more weeks would be the minimum
the last pic looks very sativa it may drag out even longer

Hi!

If you don't have a cheap little pocket microscope, you still have plenty of time to get one. I've found 60x to be ok but 100x really takes the guesswork out of assessing trichomes. Honestly one of the best $10 purchases you could make as a grower.

Patience is key if you made it into flowering. Biggest newbie mistake is harvesting too early. Buy a jewelers loop, and look at trichomes. Make sure they are at least one hundred percent cloudy before even thinking about it!
It is best to wait until you have a small percentage of Amber trichomes before harvest. Calyxes should be allowed to swell and plump up. Do not harvest until white flower pistils fill in, change color, and start to shrink up into the flower completely.
