Plant 1 and plant 2 (pic from second post) still look fairly clear.
plant 3 looks mostly cloudy to me..
but I have old eyes.
I’d say harvest as soon as you start to see traces of amber.

Awesome, thanks for the help Mike. I had a feeling a bit more patience was required. Don't want to jump the gun on my first grow.

The plants look like they’ve got enough gas in the tank to go longer….and with some white pistils still popping, I’d let her go.
It’s been my experience that some strains reach the point of being ripe and at their peak Terp profile without having many amber trichs. I’ve let plants go too long while waiting on more ambers and ended up losing terps.
Your buds are pretty close but not quite there. But when they do reach that ripe stage and its smell is at its best, I’d harvest regardless of trich ratio. IMO the peak terp factor is more valuable than a few more amber trichs…..which sometimes never come.

They have been starting to smell pretty strong the past couple weeks, but I haven't noticed a big jump in aroma or anything yet. Buds have been getting fatter and fatter and the trichomes are definitely starting to pile on though. I hace notoced some new white hairs pushing out on the top buds. I really appreciate the advice man. I'll let them go a while longer, and clean up some of the dying leaves.
