your just now at like the halfway point dude. if you pull them too soon your going to miss out on the best thc production and growth. let it grow. you will not be disappointed if you do. and flush them one and a half to two weeks before harvesting.

Hey bro, get yourself a microscope and look at the trichomes. Like everyone else said, have patience. It will pay off in the end. Pump that girl full of sugars/carbs too. I say 4-5 more weeks. peace
The leaves on my bigger plant are turniing yellow also the two smaller . I havent picked but 4 sun leaf and that was a long time ago and was off the big one Looking back I teally didnt need to do that. Anyway they are close to bloom, Should I just leave them are prun them back i threw in a few other pics

As the plant matures it will begin to use up and shed the fan leaves, causing them to turn yellow starting from the bottom so this is normal. Some people pull them, and some don't and let them fall. Personally, I pull mine to keep the girls looking cared for. Some say the plant uses up stored energy from the leaves, and if you pull them they don't get all the value of the leaves.
Also, it's my opinion not to stress about when to begin flushing, and you can begin anytime you decide to. Sure, there may be a small difference in overall yield if you were to stop feeding a couple of weeks early but not an appreciable difference.
You mentioned being in it for the long run, so you are still patient... Cool. This can be an anxious time for the new or novice grower, or those of us who have not grown is years but not much longer in the big picture. I have to say though that once you have brought a plant to maturity you will know what to look for and expect.
Also, as for looking at the trich's I use a pair of binoculars, and look through them backwards which allows you to get right up close and see a magnified view.

they look a little over watered and they need some nitrogen.

Yea man great job wit dat plant bro that is gonna be a nice harvest for you... Check out my 10 ladies they juss been flowering 4 2 weeks all sorts of pistils... Peace shows pic when u flush n harvest please
I took the advice from a thread to use (bonkulers) backwards. What a tip! I can now see tri whatervers. They are standing up straight with a little ball on the end. Its like a sea of clear bulbs. This is what I am suppose to be looking at, hu. well I just started flushing 3 days ago and hear it takes 7-10 days. Will it hurt if it flushes a little longer? I can get a close up, camara not good enough Now do i wait for the little mushrooms to get bigger or half the hairs turn red? thanks

Dude CHILL!!! Look at your first pictures vs. where you are now. Big difference right? That's because some folks helped out. You are on a good path, but if all your trics are still clear, and you are flushing you might be missing out on the most bud producing part of your plants life. Water alone is not going to enhance that growth of those buds. You need high P and K for that. Flush when the trics are just getting to the point of where they are going to produce the high you are looking for according to that chart someone posted on your thread for you. The window you have when trics change is not that small as long as you give 'em a look every day you will be cool. In short if they are all clear you have not even reached full potency yet of your grow. The plant looks awesome. Your buds are further along than mine in size. I'll go till at least the end of September for mine and possibly Octorber.

by the way nice loking plants the trics still look like they have just started to turn cloudy .... wait untill your bottom node buds and buds onthe inside near the stem have 75% of all trchome glands have turned AMBER. then you will will light up a joint and be stoned all day rather than take it down now and take all your weed just to get high,. seriously take my word and be patient. then when you take it down leave it in a room with a fan on and let it slow dry for 7-12 days.. (small nugs take 7 the top colas will take atleast 12 then once your able to snap the stem put it in clean jars let cure for a week. your good to go. enjoy

plus when they dry the colas lose 50-80 percent of their water and those top colas will go from looking like an ounce to a 1/4 oz... seriously think of how much bigger you want them for more yeild also
