Not yet. Few weeks still. You need a scope or telescope to take a real look. I just checked mine out today that way just to get used to it for the real testing. Just take a leaf sample and examine and you will have a clearer picture of where you really are.

Cool, that is why I asked. I figured that I have 2 weeks.

Lol, well your delivery is far nicer than others. We all have to start somewhere. This is going to be a long next couple of weeks. Thank you for for tagging along on my adeventure. It is appreciated.
Well darlin.... Sometimes it's better to use all the tools in the box.
1.You want to look at pistils.. (they should not be sticking out) tho there are a few strains that stay white... but the pistils should still recede into the bud when ready.
2. You want to look for overall swelling. A bud will have the actual appearance of being "ripe" when it's done.
(Up to 25% of a buds weight and mass comes in the last two weeks of growth)
3. Finally when the first two points above are STARTING to get there....that is a good time to look at trichomes.

you will get to the point you will not need a scope but you will just know.

Some of mine look about as far as yours. So we are in this together okay? Lol...don't be too quick to pull the trigger
