Looking ready?

[Johnny5thesim]

Hi!

I am on week 10 of flower for a Jack Herer photoperiod I am growing. I know trichomes are best to determine readiness. But can anyone tell me if the pic looks ready?

My trichomes are looking mostly milky, with a small amount of Amber. I swear my grow lights affect this somehow. But I was hoping someone could offer some pistil insight. Thanks!

Looks like it could b, if ur seeing mostly milky with some amber it is definitely in the window, depending what kind of high u r looking for

Assuming you mean the ones on the flowers... then chop.

Of course. Light degrades them, especially the UV portion.

Apple (or Samsung) device that isn't respecting long-established .jpeg convention? Photographer who holds his/her cell phone like he's/she's talking on the phone instead of in the correct orientation to take pictures?

Thanks for the responses. The reason I am concerned so much. Is that I miscalculated the flower time, and I am off by 2 weeks somehow.
The breeder says 9-10 weeks. And I’m at 8....and I started a flawless finish flush yesterday. So I can’t undo that.

That being said, trichomes have tons of milky and perhaps 5-10% Amber. With a smallish amount of clears. And all pistils have gone red/brown, perhaps 90%.

Is it all all common to finish before the suggested times by breeders? Or did I just screw myself with a early harvest?

Suggested time I’d say is probably more of an average time, so go by ur plant and not what the breeder says

Pick a bud and dry it.
Burn it and see what u think ?
Looks close but can’t tell without trichs photo

I’m going to try and get a pic through my loupe. My new iPhone is not good at macro shots, like my previous one.

It sure looks ready to me. I am probably just overthinking it, as I do with everything. I just can’t get my head past being done 2 week short of the breeder time. As they tend to understate the flowering times typically.

I’ll get a pic, and see what you all think!
