Hey guys, new contributor, long time lurker here. I'm wrapping up my third little grow and somehow still struggling with the when to chop question. I broke down and got a Carson zOrb digital microscope yesterday thinking that would give me the answers. Still nope. Please help me with your opinions! The attached photos are all from one bud cluster on a SexBud plant by Female Seeds. She has turned out to be the star of my little garden and I can't wait (but I can wait if I should!) to try her. 
Today marks day 60 from when I switched to 12/12 after 5 weeks in veg. The breeder claims 75 days seed to harvest and 8 weeks flowering time. I didn't take note of the exact day pistils started stacking but I know it was less than 2 weeks. The phenotype I got appears to be overtly sativa dominant with thin, long fingery leaves. LuvBud was a late bloomer compared to the others I was running at the same time but has outshined everyone in the end: Critical+ 2.0, an old free seed of Black Domina x G13 (or G13 Haze?) and Sensi's Northern Lights #5 x Haze. I had to cut down NL5 x Haze on day 20 due to a shitload of pollen sacks EVERYWHERE. I had a couple of timer mishaps and everyone but the free seed grew at least a few ladyballs. I picked those off over the course of a few days and they re-stabilized. Whew! The Sensi was sadly beyond redemption.
Too much info and I could keep going but this shit's exciting! The other two surviving plants are a done deal - probably too soon. I hope you guys will let me know what you think on the photos of my lil LuvBud who I call "Prudence."
I have a timing dilemma to make things worse. I pretty much have to either chop this week or wait til June 7.
The goal... getting the most of everything the plant can offer.
Thank you!
