I would say mostly clear---start your flush in one week from date of pics and harvest 10 to 14 days after that.

If you want complete couchlock- let them go MUCH longer. The longer, the better. As the THC degrades to CBN, you will get a much more narcotic high. The longer they go, the stronger they get. Have you ever smoked over ripe buds? Me neither. People harvest their plants too early too often. Wait for them ALL to be cloudy or amber. Youll have some serious couchlock. I like to harvest at different times, producing a different high for each plant, so I can choose what kind of high I want.
Id say you got another 2-3 weeks minumum.

There is no set x amount of days. Youre just gonna have to play it by ear. I would start flushing once your trichomes are close to where you want them. Another week after that will only make the weed more stoney. Id say start flushing once MOST of the trichs are cloudy.

You need a microscope to really see what the trichs look like. No way to tell for sure without it.

His pictures have enough detail to tell for sure.

Yup they need like another 2 weeks of regular watering then one more week on flush
It could mature faster but but I'm sure it will fall in that general time frame

W/e works is fine to use....it does not have to be a real microscope just as long as you can see them good enough to tell what color they are your fine.when you first start seeing amber trichomes forming like say 20% then start to flush.They should be pretty close to peak potency when your done with a week of flushing or 2 if you want

I second the two week flush notion as well.

I tried one and 2 weeks flushes and there is no real noticeable difference but that is with organic nutrients,chemical nutes would be better with a 2 week flush they tend to leave more salt build up then organics

I also tried one and two week flushes, and noticed a big difference in flavor and smoothness of the bud. The extra flush time made a noticable improvment for me.

Hence i said chemical would be better with a 2 week and organic is the one week.Also if you have been flushing it out through out the whole grow then one week of flush should be plenty for organic nutrients, but if its the first flush you have done then yea i would say give it 2.
