U can really only tell wen they ready by checking the triches. Give the buds some time to swell and let the hairs begin to recede that how u know its getting close. A lot of the leaves should also start to yellow wen they get close. Do u have a loupe?

OK jus might not be a hairy strain. Are u looking for a specific high. If u let them go longer until they are mostly amber, that shit will keep u on ur ass, and they may swell some.

Sound's to me she is almost ready then Keep us posted
Will do.I just don't want to over shoot it....She had some heat stress very early in life. I think that's all she got... But I'll give her another two weeks to fluff up under that 400 watt... But I need to flip to 12/12 asap.

Amber trichomes = CBN = very low potency degraded THC. High is strain dependent, not based on when you harvest. One of many pieces of misinformation floating around the cannabis world.

Its a different high just like I said, cannabinoids tend to give u a couch-lock medicated high.
CBN only gives you a mild high. Couch lock is pretty extreme in the realm of cannabis high. Something CBN can not accomplish.

Cannabanoid = cbn, cbd, thc, cbc, thcv ect..

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cannabinoid

Cannabinol (CBN) is the primary product of THC degradation, and there is usually little of it in a fresh plant. CBN content increases as THC degrades in storage, and with exposure to light and air. It is only mildly psychoactive. Its affinity to the CB[SUB]2[/SUB] receptor is higher than for the CB[SUB]1[/SUB] receptor.[SUP][34][/SUP]
Whatever strain dependent high you have will decrease with the increased % of amber trichomes.
