How about a pic of the plant ?
Do you own a jewelers loupe? They are cheap

Jewelers loupe, one of those cheap but yet valuable items. Good for many things from checking your trichs to checking spots/things on the plant to inspecting possible insects. Amongst other uses in/around the grow room.

I have a magnifying glass but I’m still struggling with identifying the difference

Your grow looks great but too green
reduce nitrogen or calmag
Your photo skills are not on par with your green thumb
I suggest a loupe or digital microscope

Magnifying glass won't work

They only cost about five bucks, my hydro store gives them away free

what medium are you using??? Your leaves still look very green, though that may not be a problem depending how n strain.
how far along are they?
The pistills to me say you could go another week.. maybe even two..
Depending on trichomes and what your after.

Soil (fox farm happy frog) stopped giving nutes about 2 weeks ago so I don’t really know how they are still green ... strains are zkittlez and white widow

looking at them again id say its hard to tell. They look healthy green, thats nota bad thing. Better to chop a little late than a little early though..
You dont want to stop feeding too soon either, ive done that and the plants just froze in time, they didnt finish developing no mater how long i left them.
How many weeks since flip are they

What I would do is get a a good tool to check your trichomes.. if not possible wait for pistills to pull back in something like this
