Best way to tell is get a powerful magnifying glass or hand held microscope/w LED to see how far along the trichomes (resin/crystals) are, you just look at the ball tips of the trichomes (looks like golf ball on golf tee). There are three stages 1) clear 2) cloudy 3) amber If they are clear they are still not finished, if they are cloudy they are at peak, and if they are amber/dark they are starting to degrade.
The answer to your question depends on what your looking for in your med's. Clear will be a light heady buzz. Cloudy is the representation of what the strain has to offer at their peak (could be both head & body buzz). Amber is a couch lock heavy buzz, makes you feel like a ten ton heavy thing. So it's really up to you what you want to feel or your patients.

I blew that bud pic up on the comp and it's near prime time for what I like. Almost all cloudy with a bit of clear left and 80% or so red hairs.
I like to take the top 1/3rd off then give the lower buds a week or so to fatten up if they want then take the rest.
