Im a newb and all i know about "doneness" ive learned from this site and ones like it but your bud looks good to me. Ya your trichs look pretty clear from that pic but your bud is really dense. Good job if u ask me. Plus, you said he only chopped 1/3. You should wait a little longer on the next chop and compare. It seems some peeps can tell the difference between weeks of harvest.
I took a very small sample this week and will take one next week before my projected harvest. Then ill compare and see if I can tell a difference and next time I'll know what I like.
I am jealous of that bud. Huge, dense, you got like a 1/4 right there.
