Lol, man I missed that completely as well, always look at calyx never the sugar leaves
Thanks for info... I took another pic this morning... not sugar leafI read the posts above and there is a lot of good info..But if I see correctly, you are looking at the trichomes on a sugar leaf? Sugar leaf trichs mature faster than bud trichs and are not a good indicator imo.
Here's the pictureThanks for info... I took another pic this morning... not sugar leaf
Nice!Here's the picture
Nice!
I would consider flushing (if you do so), in a few days or so..I usually just switch to water only during a "flush", but don't pour mass amounts of water thru my plants.
For me..I use a combination of pistils and trichomes to determine when..I shoot for 20% amber and the rest mostly cloudy before I chop..Depending on your wants and/or needs..you can chop in stages! (letting the unripened buds hang around until they mature)
I have a Purple Badlands that I was up for chopping last week (driving me nuts)..instead I have let her go and the trich color has hardly changed a bit..It is wise in cases like that to examine the trichs themselves, making sure that they haven't begun to shrivel..When they do..you are past prime time.
I use Photoshop to blow up pictures like this so I can see the trichomes..These shots help me by looking at the whole bud(s).
Your picture is super! What did you use?
Mine is a Nikon DSLR + cheapo ring macros. (yeah..between the 3 dogs and me..I spend way too much time picking off hairs)

I think you are on the right track!AGAIN THANKS FOR THE INFO!!!
your posts seem to go in the same direction ive been considering...one more good feeding and ween her off to flush her for about 10-14 days...then snip the main cola and dropping my lights to ripe the lower flowers snipping as they ripen...what do you think???
I started with the same camera setup (nikon/macro rings/focusing rail) now i use a $20 digital microscope from youknowwhoazon
here's my setup (see pic)
I think you are on the right track!
I have one of those microscope things, but mine is Wi-fi..I have to get a tripod, since it is so powerful (50-1000x) that when I shake just a little..it is a complete fuzz..It also takes video.
I only have used it right next to an Ipad, and it is fine (haven't lost a connection)..BUT the Ipad must have its wifi re established manually for each new session.Yep!! that's the one! how does the wi-fi work? the focusing rail is awesome too (allows for movement left & right & front to back in mm's)...still working out some kinks with the setup though!!
oh i see no cable...geek has them pretty cheap but well made..I only have used it right next to an Ipad, and it is fine (haven't lost a connection)..BUT the Ipad must have its wifi re established manually for each new session.
I would also need an inexpensive rail like you have
