Any chance on a pic? From the sounds of it you got 2-3 weeks left but couldn't say if it was 2 or 3 without a photo, but considering there is no cloudy trichomes yet I would say you have 3 left but that would only be a guess.

Im zooming in and I see some cloudy any chance of getting a zoomed trichome picture? Im trying to give you the most specific answer I can.
 
Looked pretty clear to me but first time viewing the trichomes tonight as just got microscope. So I am a bit unsure

Ok. If you look at all the buds ( not just one on each plant ) and see All clear trichomes are clear or less than 20% cloudy and the rest clear I would say you have 3 weeks left.

The first picture looks like majority of the trichomes are milky/ some clear and I even saw some amber. The second one is hard to make out. If the first picture is any indication of most of the trichomes on the buds I would start flushing you got 1-2 weeks left.

Make sure you look at all the buds as well to get a general idea of what everyone looks like. One Flower may be more mature/less mature than other flowers. Everyone is different, but I generally like to harvest when it is mostly cloudy/ slightly amber. Don't pull them too early most often beginners will pull too soon. I would post some more pics up in a week or more and try to get yourself a jewelers loupe or something easy for you to take pictures and magnify with.
