Sounds like your about ready to harvest, you want all cloudy with some amber. Cut your branches off and hang upside down in a cool dark place with some air movement. I used my tent which worked well. After a couple days should be ready for jars to begin the cure process.

Looks pretty close, nice looking buds and frost

I'd give it a week and check again

Looks good

They'd likely be done by now with more light say 11/13 or 11.5/12.5 or 12/12.

Total light over time .... think about it.

They do not look done to me. WAY too many white pistols but frosty AF so thats good. Healthy looking too.

Dont mess with lighting now.... just something to think about with your next round.

What strain is that?

Sativa wont go amber with trichomes and will constantly put out white pistols up to and beyond chop day.

So should i start the flush in a week and if so for how long ? The strain is (great white shark ) ive that you should trim your fan leafs and water leafs before you harvest and if so when should i do that? Another question i have some one told me to leave your plant in complete dark for 48 hrs before you chop your plant down ?

No "flushing." Keep feeding right up to the end.
