am I ready yet trichomes are clear to cloudy. Hard to tell. I only have a 7 power I look. Bottom branches are starting to dry out a bit. Here are some pics
Ok tSome side view photos of your buds helps more than a top view... and the blue lights make it difficult to see anything useful. How long has it been flowering? It appears to be a Sativa which can flower for 12 weeks or more. The more info the better. FWIW, I rarely use the Trichome method alone to determine "doneness", especially with a Sativa, since they continue to grow slightly as they mature. From what I could make out, you still have a ways to go but it's hard to say for certain without some more pics and info.
Lose the burple lights if you want advice. Without natural light it’s to hard to tell.
ThanksIt looks like it could still go for another week or two, in my opinion. The buds look nice but need to swell up a little more. Often, when it is fully finsihed flowering, the plant will start to produce single bladed leaves near the ends of the buds, which also get a little more pointed at the tips. Once it swells a little more, you will be ready. If you took it down now, I think the buds would shrivel up to nothing. I think that I get most of my flavor and size in the last few weeks of flowering. In my opinion, it is always better to cut down later than sooner... at least you know that you are getting the maximum amount of buds for the plant's age!
