Hey y'all.

This is my third grow. These girls have been flowering for nine weeks now and I've been flushing for two. Not exactly thrilled with how small the buds are but I don't want to start fertilizing again this close to the end. And most importantly, I don't want to wait too long before harvest so I don't get seedy buds like with my first grow.
So what say you, fine people? Are they ready?​

Like we tell everyone and I do now for the last time.
You can't exactly tell if they're ready or not when y didn't check the trichomes on and inside the calyx.

Get a jewelers loupe, microscope with 60x+ scope and please don't ask again.

Welcome to the Farm.

Those are very nice looking plants, well done. With all the pistils already turned, you're definitely in the zone. If you're going to buy a jewelers loupe for $15'ish, then I would advise buying a USB microscope, for about $30'ish. Loupes are just barely good enough, but when you see what the microscope shows. You can tell whats actually clear/cloudy/amber so much easier. Plus its fascinating to get in that close to your plants.

Give us some more info on your grow.

2 - 3 weeks. New pistils coming up, and they're starting to stack, minimal indicators of senescence in the overall plant. Patience will reward.

I agree with rustbelt another 2 or 3 weeks still got new pistils coming through and a good chance other buds are going fatten up some more, nice healthy plants though.

Thanks a lot everybody! Guess I'll be a little more patient. I'm definiteIy getting a microscope now, but today I seemed to notice that the trichomes are starting to get a little ambery. Originally, given that I was gonna wait another 2-3 weeks I was ready to give the plant another round of fertilizer, but now that I can see the darkening of the trichomes, I think I'm not gonna do that just in case they're ready in less than two weeks. Is that a reasonable train of thought? (I hope you get what I mean lol. English isn't my first language.)

Again, thanks for your kind responses.

You can try one trick its hard but it works.you take your phone camera and put a drop of water on the lens it works same as the microscope but it falls off easily
