Hi guys, got my 1st grow in flower. It’s day 65 and the lad who gave me the cuttings is telling me chop her down. I’m not convinced, I believe it’s got some way to go yet as I’ve only been 12/12 for 65days and I can’t see anything milky yet but I am a newbie so Any advice? Oh and I don’t know what srain she is. Neither does the lad I got her off

I'd recommend a jeweler's loupe or a macro lens for your cam. They are definitely close

Thanks for replying.
I have a jewellers loupe that’s why I know the trichomes are clear. Tried to get some decent pics with lights on but battery on my camera needed charging. I’ll add more pics in the morning when lights come on

I think you’re probably in that window where harvesting would be fine….but letting her go another solid week to 10 days would only enhance the strain.
If you are seeing an abundance of clear trichs on the calyces it would be wise to wait a week and re-evaluate. But if 80% are milky and you have a few ambers (on the calyces, not the sugar leaves) it’s in a good place. You are always gonna have some clear trichs.
Some strains don’t produce the ideal ratio of milky to amber when it’s ripe. More so with autos, some never give off a large percentage of ambers….but some photos are that way too.
If the buds have went through a noticeable swell and stopped producing white pistils, then it’s more of a preference at that point.
Some folks like their bananas yellow and firm while others, myself included, prefer them to be a little riper.
And I gotta say, for a new grower you must have a horseshoe up your keister…..those are some fine looking plants for a grower of any experience level. Keep up the good work….and don’t forget the dry and cure is crucial to the final product….probably the most important step in the entire process. Figure things out before you chop….
Good luck

Thank you for your replies I appreciate the comments on how it’s looking for my first time growing. Im growing in coco and have been using bio bizz nutes, however, I’ve been flushing for the past couple of weeks. I’m just home from work so gonna add a few more pictures in the next half hour

No need to flush my friend…unless you plan on packing some of that coco in your bowl and smoking it…..
It’s ok to give only water in the last few days to a week. But if the plant has to reach into its reserves too early for too much it can impact how it finishes.
Keep her healthy and thriving until the end….

A few pics I’ve just taken. And thanks for the advice regarding feeding. I’ll go and give a good feed now
