Thank you man. Yea, i was going to continue to flush for another week or so. Thanks for yuor input.
 
Whats the strain? looks good regardless, as mrGG stated, it also depends on the stone wanted.... sativa dominant? may want an 'up' cerebral high--> go with clearer trichomes. Indica dominant? want a more body stone---> cloudy with a 'few' amber trichomes. Looks delicious! Good job!

it's almost where i like to harvest mine, but you can go for longer. mind you that amber means theyr degrading so you don't want too much amber.

i agree wait a little bit longer until you start getting the amber color, or just harvest in sections if some of the hairs start to change sooner than others

thats the thing about this. All the hairs are orange and curled back. This strain says its a 8 week strain and its been 9 weeks. And i have a completely darkened room, so i dont know what is going on. I used to think that half should be amber to cut, but ive been reading that you want to cut before its amber.

First let me say it's a real personal thing before anyone starts flamin'..

I would cut them just by the amount of amber you have in that shot, in my opinion they might have gone too long, it real depends on the high your looking for. I cut with very little amber and mostly cloudy, at least 97% for me.

Again this assumes that these few pics are the general consensus of the whole plant. but you have around 25% amber, I know there are peeps that will wait way longer, but I don't...Let us know JR

I just read a few more of the posts, man you should cut, if the strain says 8 weeks and you are at 9 it's good to go, next round I would cut at 8 weeks like it says..JR

i would wait a bit longer until they just start to turn amber. you will get more yeild too! just dont wait any longer than that or just like someone said, it begins to degrade after that. also very nice pics!

Look at that first picture, it has at least 25% amber, how much more would you go? JR

You have awesome pics! What equipment do you have to photograph at that magnification. I assume that's around 60X, right?

This is the time when patience sucks. Hang in there when u see 25% amber it's time. Doing a great job well done.
