Help me Decide when Chimera #2 is ready Please

[plumsmooth]

Some strains are deceiving aesthetically looking like totally ready but still have a week or more. Some strains show a set amount of white pistils maturing, but lately a lot of strains seem to finish from the inside out. Looking done from the outer layers but still fattening and hardening up from the inside? And of course how much Amber does one really want? This Chimera #2 looks very ready from the outside -- partially due to the visible fade -- to me, but surprisingly has very few Amber Trichomes? I read 70 Days but also read 60-70 days. I forgot but I think this is some where over 60 Days. Should I let it GO longer?

Those trichomes look like they'll need a few more weeks, but I prefer a later harvest. The weed tends to be more mellow.

I've been told that the buds are still growing if there are white pistils at the top of the buds.

Should I let it GO longer?

That's what I would do.

When trichomes on the buds, NOT LEAVES, are cloudy and 5 % to 10% amber you're good to chop

Alright I will cut a small bud for inspection. But also, some strains ripen progressivly across the whole plant...

No law says you have to chop the entire plant at once! Play with it!

I ike when the Buds harden up a bit. But I suppose every strain has a different level of Firmness when squozen?

Plant has been turning purple last 3 days I don't see any reason to go any longer I think today is the Day!
