Very nervous, 1st harvest: are my buds ready yet

[Ossi Ossi]

G'day guys
I am just so nervous as to when I pull this baby out of the ground,any advice appreciated and yes I have a loupe 30x

Hard to say from the pics. What strain is it? How long has it been flowering? If you have a 30x loupe what do the trichomes look like?

 

[Elvin]

Pictures need to be a lot closer especially the one on the porch. You need the loupe

I have this one

I have this one

We need to see a very close up shot of one single flower that fills the entire frame and one of the trichomes.
If we could see the large leaves turning colors (carotenoid pigments retained in the plastids after the chlorophyll is lost) or even dying in those far away shots, someone would hazard a guess, but it needs to be closer than this without those small clues.

Try putting your loupe against the lens of your camera then put the loupe against the bud to try to get a shot of the thricomes. Your looking for mostly cloudy thricomes with some amber.

What I will try to do is get a photo of the loupe,here goes nothing and I just had to go to Bunnings to get some stakes to hold the babies up haha

Going by what I can see; It's green as heck. There is not a fan leaf even thinking about dying. 2 weeks? 3 weeks? More? Until I see the trichomes (or just close enough to see the bract and calyx bits) I can't do better.

I had an outdoor grow like this, limited light made it like 8:1 leaf to calyx, basically useless for my liking

The plant will never look "done"

I'm looking for the shape of the bits (definitely not as good as looking at trichomes, but if that's as close as you can get with the camera that's what you got), not a ratio of some sort; never heard of a ratio like that (and I have college textbooks ;-), it does sound completely useless to me as well. Almost like a 4000watt (70 watt real when you consider the fan) Blurple's finished product.

I just said an exaggerated number lol but it was hard to notice actual buds lol

Is this better

 

[Elvin]

I'm thinking a couple/few more weeks but that's just me.
It looks like it needs to fill in a bit and start a little fan leaf dying.
But I've been smoking all day long . . . . so I don't know . . . damn, I'm F'ed up.
