Always better to be a little late than early. Those look like they should add bulk still. Thursday should be soon enough to check trykes as they look weeks away. Some quick N wouldn’t hurt, not a lot but fast.

Holy lack of nitrogen Batman!

I haven’t used a loop to check trichomes for ripeness since around 2014/2015.

Yours aren’t done yet and look to have between 3-4 weeks to go

my A part is 4-0-1 and B is 1-4-2

would it work to give higher dose of A than B not sure if it works like that or if it will cause lockout

Flushing is a myth. Feed to the end.

The signs of ripeness are pretty standard for cannabis plants.

First a few of the pistils begin turning color and start receding. Your plant is just starting to ripen. Depending on the strain you could still have two months to go. We're just starting this journey.

Two to four weeks later you'll notice that most of the pistils(>80%) have now changed color and curled back into the bud. It's frosty, way bigger than it was a few weeks ago(aren't you glad you waited), and smells dank! It's time, right? Not a chance killer. Patience is a virtue.

Over the next 2-3 weeks it doesn't look much different, maybe a little more swelling in the calyxes, and the rest of the pistils change over, but the stems are starting to bend under the weight of the buds. These ladies are putting on weight internally by adding density and now the buds are doing their final ripening.

Now you begin looking at trichomes, on the calyx, not the leaves. When looking at trichomes it’s essential to look at them from the side. The bulbous heads can magnify the opaque stalk under it. Looking from the side allows you to more accurately see the condition of the resin in the trichome head.

There is still no rush to harvest, the window just opened, and you have several weeks before you MIGHT start having to think about it possibly beginning to get too ripe. It takes WEEKS for plants to mature not days.

It is very easy to harvest a plant to early. It is very hard to harvest a plant to late. I’ve never seen someone accidentally wait too long.

Yeah couldn’t be more true it seems. I honestly think I have probably harvested all the plants early I have ever grown lol. It’s gorilla glue I was under the impression it was a hairy strain anyway but I’ll just keep waiting
