How many weeks flowering? Looks like mine at 5 wks flowering indoors. You could be pulling too early. I see lots of leaf hairs and a few trichomes. Not a lot....The ones i see are small and clear, thats immature. I might have seen some cloudy ones in the pic, thats a more heady high effects. Amber trichs are more couch locky and stony.
 
I know it's 73 days from switch to 12/12 which is ten weeks from switch. My work started picking up so haven't been able to be in there fully like I was before. Which I would of put it down when they started showing flowering lol. What do you think my next steps should be?

Most important be patient and watch it. When ive been close to harvest in the flushing stage or close to it, but wanting more trichs ive used a brand from bio-bizz or buzz called top max or an aerobic tea of just worm casts then adding molasses before feed. Theres other products you can use later in flower too. Fyi Molasses is an acidifier, will lower pH sometimes acidic nutes pushes more development. Me, I wait and tea or massive flush then see response. But waiting to long can herm out or mold outdoors.
You are correct dont count the stretch for flowering weeks. Each strain finishes differently. Some take a while to start getting big. Some dont develop nose and trichs till way later in flowering. Some need more than the quoted weeks flowering. All of us are not growing in the same way as the breeder or seed company that made the strain so expect longer.
