This is the best to go off of. I notice you've got some ambering but I can't make out if they are cloudy or not. You have quite a bit of white hairs as well but they do seem attributed to new growth! From what I can see I would say probably one more week?

 

[DankNugz420]

Personally I'd probly give it another week atleast. Still pushing white hairs out says it's not quite done to me

At least ten days. Get a magnification device and check the trichs on the buds, not the leaves or tops.

Take 1/3 of the buds now. In maybe 3 days, take another 1/3 and another 3 days take the last of them. Keep them separate and marked with the percentage of amber they each have.
After drying and curing you will have 3 good levels of couch-lock to mix and match for mood and sedative effects.

Thank you for the input and yes you are right it is new growth, which just started in week 7, it does have many milky tricombs I was just concerned with the deep darkening in some spots lol my goal is to hold one more week but just wanted to make sure I don't hurt the plant

About a week to 10 days.Keep an eye out for bud rot. Other than that. It's good. And decent frost. Should cure up nicely.

Thanks for that input cause bud rot is one thing I'm mainly nervous about I have checked to buds where they are a bit darker and no rot inside so as of now I think I'm good

I hear you man man this is my first plant I have ever grown this big being its my first grow and I have found the last 2 weeks the hardest because you want max yield but also the high you want

The plant is in front of you, not us. We are just offering our opinions based off pictures on the internet. Ultimately it’s your call on when and if it’s done. You would probably have decent smoke if chopped now, personally I think you’ll have better smoke if you can wait it out. It’s hard I know.

How much couch lock do you want. That's what it really comes down to. The more milky and amber, the more it will be a sedative.
You decide what you want.

Judging by your pistils I’d say wait another week before you flush.

Looks like you’re in for some good smoke!

I agree and that's the hard part for me but after this plant I will have a better understanding forsure

I would personally snip off a lower bud throw it in the oven ay 40deg c and have a couple caps and see what you think...id maybe go another week but if your noticing that the bulb heads are dropping off when you view the trics under a scope then its probably time to go..its your call..
