This is how brown my cow got, err grow. I was freaking.

I respected grower explained to me how to peel a bud and look inside
I let it ride 3 more weeks. End result is a nice smoke of about 5 ounces and trim for Special Brownies.

What you're looking for are the white hairs to all go amber and the trichome mushroom heads to get milky. This is your sign that the plant has matured and is either ready or close to ready to be harvested.

Just as an FYI but CBD growers tend to harvest their flowers in week 6 when cannabanoids are at their peak. Harvest time also depends on the effect you are going for. If you harvest when trichomes are cloudy you'll have a nice balanced high. If the trichomes start to go amber in color then you'll get a more couch lock effect.

Judging by the photos what's your opinion, are they clear? The buds are still growing

Yes. I see enough trich heads that are clear to say that you still have some time before they're ready.

I usually don’t look for trich ripeness until I stop seeing as many immature hairs. I would honestly wait until the hairs told me it was about time then start monitoring the trichs. The leaves unfortunately are not a good indication as to whether they are ready or not. Seen many a plant that had various issues where the leaves said time to die but the buds were still way underdeveloped. Just remember, more cloudy for head highs, more amber for narcotic/sedative effects. Sweet spot for most is around 20-30% amber but really comes down to preference

Hey. Thanks for helping out every body. Just checked on my trees and they are looking way better. It was a nute problem. I've Hit them with Grow Micro and Bloom plus some cal-Mag and they are looking better greener and the sugar leaves are way more healthy. Looked at the trichomes and they are starting to go milky. Hope i don't screw up drying and curing lol ill Be sure to post some photos.
