Day 53 Northern Lights Autos Looking For Advice

First time with autos. I wanted them small, so I used 1 gal fabric. I also made the mistake of using Miracle-Gro Organic potting soil. Live and learn. Having overcome most of my mistakes, these 4 ladies are at day 53 from sprouting. Sorry for the picture...

First time with autos. I wanted them small, so I used 1 gal fabric. I also made the mistake of using Miracle-Gro Organic potting soil. Live and learn. Having overcome most of my mistakes, these 4 ladies are at day 53 from sprouting. Sorry for the picture quality, but it's the best my phone can manage. The breed is Northern Lights x Big Bud autos. I guess the question is for a best guess of how much longer they need? Using a loupe, there are probably 10% cloudy trichomes. I would prefer to have a decent mix of cerebral with a small amount of couch lock. I tried a small bud last weekend and the cerebral is off the chain right now, but you are able to still do things you need to get done. At what point should I stop them to achieve what I'm after? For instance, 20% amber, most all cloudy with no amber, etc? Thanks for the advice, and I have learned a lot here already. The next batch will be White Widow Autos in 2 gal fabrics with coco coir, pearlite, and a small amount of soil for good bacteria.

Put the scope away. Harvest when the bud is ripe.

Good advice so far - my experience with autos I’d say 2 weeks minimum
