Are they ready?

I switch to 12/12 58 days ago. Depending where I look there are quite a lot of amber trichomes.
The three plants on the left and in the middle are Northern Lights x Big Bud and the two on the right are C99 by Female Seeds.

Probably 12 more days. I want to say 2 weeks but too popular on riu. Your plants chop when u want. I would let go week or two and just keep checking. May want couple pic a little closer. Kinda blurry on my end when u blow it up
 
Here are some more pictures. Under the microscope I am seeing a lot of amber on the top buds.

Thanks for the reply. I heard C99 should be harvested at around 60 days. Also Im seeing a lot of amber on the indicas, im not sure if 10-14 days is too much, I am think more like 5 days.
Got any pics of all these amber trichs?

EDIT and WELCOME to RIU:weed:
 
That's what i thought too but a lot of people harvest it at around day 55, latest I have see was day 70 which is what I am planning.

people harvesting that early are either counting from the real beginning of the bloom phase when flowers start to actually form.

Or

they are harvesting early because the breeder said it should be done or they saw someone else do it.

Ive ran multiple C99 phenotypes for a few years in a row. About 10 weeks should get you in a good harvest window. That being said you still shouldn’t harvest based on a date. Always go by the signs the plant shows, and wait for a ripe plant if possible.

Thanks for your input, so should I run the C99 for like a week or so more?
 
Run it “ as long as it takes “ is the bottom line.

Plant is in charge . Plants don’t look at calendars.
@Thundercat pretty much laid it out. Let plant express full maturity ( however long ) .
Alright thank you very much. So I am pretty sure that the NL x BB is ready by next Saturday and I will let the C99 go longer.
 
As I said very shaky :DD
And don't look at sugar leaves. You need to check trichs from the calyx. But alot of guys tell you to not focus on the trichs. White pistuls turn orange and the orange receed back into the calyx causing it to swell.
