i tried taking some close ups with my camera but the hps light wasnt helping out at all... but heres 2 close ups and 1 of all the girls. the calyxs seem pretty swole up but ill keep watching them i was thinking somewhere around another 7-10 days before harvest.

Looks tasty :bigjoint:

If you're not flushing, I would start. They are getting close. If you have a Harbor freight in your town a 10X loupe is all you need. They sell a loupe set for cheap. Or get a 30X on ebay. I think 20X would be ideal.
 
I had the similar problem on my first harvest too. From your pics your able to get close enough to see when the trichs turn Amber. U will see a bunch of white ones with what looks like brown dots mixed with them that's what I judge off of.image.jpg
 
A loupe is like $5 and radioshack has those handheld microscopes for $15 and they are going out of business so it'll be cheaper(if there is still one around by you). That way there is no guess work.
