6 weeks Crtical... They look ready?

I have benn pimping these three ladys the last 6 weeks in flowering, they look ready or almost. I have a microscope but I am a nob I can see the trichomes but I cant notice the color changing. This is a 7 to 8 week flowering strain. I have it under a 400 W hps some help?
Thanks

What power scope are you using? 60x works great.

sweet weed... give it another week

When to harvest seems to be the hardest part of the whole deal. Maybe another week or three. I like to wait till it turns over 1/2 to 2/3rds red hairs. Why not ask for a bud to volunteer and nuke it and smoke it?

on the microscope it says 96-144x and has up to 900 but its really dirty been hanging around for 20 years maybe dont know how to clean.

Yeah bro, you don't need a microscope. That's a pain in the ass, I'm sure.
I bought one of these

works perfect. And look at the price! LOL $4.19 ...Got a penny? Bwahahaha

will a 30x microscope do the thing?

60x is much better. What's wrong with the one i showed you. it's 30x,45x, and 60x

It takes to long to ship I need one ASAP....

It looks great. Wait a bit though! You can get a cheap microscope at radio shak type stores. or science education stores. even a super baddass magnifying class can suffice. Alot of old heads also go by "when it's REALLY sparkly". Not just a couple of twinkles. When it really gleams.

They'll still fill out a lot more over the next few weeks. You can usually tack at least an extra week onto what the advertised flowering time is. The only plant I've ever seen finish in six weeks is Kish.

I will buy this one 60x and will be here on tuesday.

Awesome. That one looks great too. How much? Got the link?

not ready, depending on pot size and strain, id look into starting the flush here pretty soon, ive written an addition to Ganjaluvrs How-To on drying and curing. but didn't go into detail on flush time varying on potsize, plant size, growing medium or method. i just put up basics.. check it out --> https://www.rollitup.org/harvesting-curing/372110-ganjaluvrs-drying-curing-broken-down-2.html#post4762437

The price is around 8 euros the link is in spanish. So it will do the trick. right?

You bet. As long as its a magnifying glass. Take pics when it arrives. It looks cool.

Don't worry, you aren't missing much in just a few days.
You said you'll have the 60x scope tuesday. When I bought my first scope I was using it all the time. Now it's just once a week or so during flower until I start seeing the tichs get cloudy. Then it's every other day or so 'til I see some amber/purple. (The Lemon Haze I just chopped had purple trichs)

I read around somewhere about putting ice on top of the soil that the plant will feel the end coming and will produce massive crystals. Anything about that?

Never tried that. I do however give them 48 hours of darkness before harvest.
