Definitely check with a loupe! I'm on week 10 of an 8 week strain and my pistils are more curled in than yours yet the triches are crystal clear still. The only way to do it right is to get up close with AT LEAST a 30x magnification. Those loupes are cheap on Amazon.
Good luck!
Good luck!

Ok, so I got the loupe, and took a look from a 10x loupe and I see some milky tricomes... So do you think I'm ready to hang em?

It will be hard to see the detail with a 10x loupe, but ideally I like to see milky triches with some amber mixed in. This can take longer than the expected flowering time. The more amber that is present, the more "couchlock" which I like.
I have not mastered posting pictures, but check out the triches in the first post of this thread.

I got loupes and magnifying glasses in the beginning. Kind of a pain.
For 25 bucks or so you can get a digital scope that will go from 100x-500x. I use the Supereyes.
It has a button right on the unit for taking pics.
And its also fun to look at all sorts of shit with, lol.
Just my opinion.

This is NOT the one I have. I don't see the one I purchased. But this is a similar unit.
There are some even cheaper, I saw some for under $20usd.
Use mine all the time.
We spend more on things we use less.

I have a 60 / 100x pocket microscope from Carson. I freaking love this thing. Also reading trics is strain dependent I've read some stains don't really amber up like others. And I also read that some cloudy will turn amber during the cure. Be sure to read up on harvest and cure. Good luck Bare
