approaching week, 15 with an auto flower, still not done

[emma.dir]

hi guys, this is an auto flower granddaddy purple on week 13. I know based on trichomes and barely any of them being Amber yet that is not ready I’m anxious that im accidentally gunna wait too long to harvest. So just checking in and wondering if you guys think maybe I could harvest it in a week or so doesn’t look swollen to me either. This is my best looking weed I’ve grown so far and need it to be the best hitting too. I only added pictures of the top buds as the bottom ones are not even close to being done.

Looking good!

You've got options. Say it with me, "my plant, my choice!"

It's still growing, but at some point you're losing more to overripeness than you're gaining waiting for everything ripening and that's when you looking at making the decision to chop. That is unless you are deliberately doing an early or late run. But it sounds to me like your trying to get as much perfect ripeness as you can from the plant and for that you might consider taking the tops when they are ready and letting the lowers stay on the plant and finish. Scroggers, fimmers and folks who trim a uniform height canopy are usually in the best position for harvesting the entire plant at once with more uniform results.
