This is my first grow and Im not sure exactly what to look for to know my baby is ready. From what I understand, Im waiting for the trichs to turn an amber color. I dont have a magnifying glass so Im eyeballing it. I started my flushing about a week ago so Im not feeding it anymore. It seems that the leaves are starting to turn red around the buds. Today is my 48th day into flowering. Heres some pics if anybody can help me..... Thanks

dont quote me, but it looks like there is some more bud growth to be had, your plant looks really healthy and could well stand another week or two. the thing is you can get up to a thirty percent bump in yield over the last few weeks of flowering also if harvested at the right time the bud will be much stickier and more potent as it comes to the end if its natural flowering cycle because it is desperately trying to attract male pollen

I personally would have given it another week or 2 coz from what I can make out those trichomes are cloudy at best...cloudy is cool though!
Plants usually take 8-15 weeks to be ready...(generally your safe if you start to flush round week 7-8 - so your probably gonna be ok, but I personally would've given them another 2-3 weeks extra before flush)

i would wait until atleast 70% of the flower has turned amber and then harvest.If your using nutes with alot of salts i would def flush for two weeks as said above.
