I have heard this theory of bud swelling , has a typical plant response and possibly throws stuff out as a last ditch effort like they do . But alot of this is not 100 percent I don't think

You seem very confused and unable to handle this immensely simple conversation. The whole reason for asking if he flushed was so that I could tell if his leaves should be yellow. That's how you could determine ripeness without a magnification device but since he has one you don't need to question me any further. Pretty straight forward even stoned so you might wanna go see a doctor.
Bro science? By flushing the soil you get rid of salt build up that would otherwise continue to feed and keep the plant green until harvest day. It forces the plant to use stored nutrients in the leaves and there are about 1,000,000 pictures of this process on this website alone. I'm not saying flushing gets the nutrients out of the weed. smh
not what you said

Just looking outside the box here but did you flush and no nutes the last two weeks? I'm trying to go by the depletion of nutrients in the leaves and it would seem like you have another week at least if you did flush. Not saying that trich scoping isn't the best method because it is but if the homie doesn't have a magnification device strong enough there are other options.
I'm literally quoting myself. Go snort more powdery mildew.

So you got the best answers from wait pretty damn close to cut. Obviously you are in the harvest window so it is pretty much personal preference now.

after 4-5 more days of your 12/12 light schedule I'd leave it in total darkness 48 full hours....Then chop.

Total darkness for 2 full days will trick the plant into thinking summer and fall is over, it will put out maximum self protection to avoid death (all cannabinoids possible from that plant, and max thc level)
 
Ya it’s been almost 2 weeks without nutes just ph water and I have a loupe just hard to tell I’m going to try and use phone camera and loupe and see if I can tell if trichs are ready how else would you tell besides the trichs and btw thanks for all the input
I flush with water for like 3-5 days max...any more than that and the quality of your plant will go backwards..
Your judge when its harvest time when 80-90% of the white hairs turn brown..
