northern lights harvest time

[vida]

what up everyone, I have a couple nl plants that have been flowering for 5 weeks now in a flood and drain hydro setup. im hoping to flower for another 3-4 weeks if possible but looking at the trichones, about 90% of them are very cloudy, about 6% amber and 4% clear. im sure some arnt as far along as others but from what im reading they are ready right? I would really like to keep them going to gain size and weight but don't want to loose a lot of potency. any opinions on what I should do? I just got some bloombastic and started that today. thanks for the input!

ok cool haha ive seen so much different ways to tell when its ready the most common ive seen is the trichs. I don't remember where but I saw a couple times that people were saying not to go by the hairs turning but I agree with you, couldn't be ready in just 5 weeks!

Pix were good enough to say to wait a few weeks.
They may look cloudy but they are not, didnt see any amber in those.

I love my garden when it's all white flowers,
sorta like spring.

yea thanks for the extra pics! when do you all like to harvest? my first go around I did it too early they were pretty big but way too airy and kind of a strange taste. my plan this time is to wait as long as I can without quality loss
