Hey guys
Those babies are 70 days from 12/12 flip
Different strains,
all from Barney.(flower times from 55 to 80 days).
1)LSD-25
2)MIMOSA EVO
3)BLUEBERRY
4)AMNESIA
5)WEDDING CAKE

I noticed, that all stigmas from Mimosa EVO for exemple, are brown already, and amnesia still have bunch of white stigmas(ofc, it is sativa -dominant strain..)))

sorry for quality (next time i'll steal Hubble Telescope and make super photos:D).
I'll be happy if you will tell me HOW THEY SHOULD LOOK ,or maybe some of them are ready to harv:bigjoint:

Wait a bit more.
I see no amber & a bunch of clear.
No white hair but the red haven't shriveled.

Have fun

Can you post a whole plant pic also? From the looks of trichomes, you have a bit to go. Many are still clear, as stated above. Wait till they are all cloudy and some begin to amber. Looking good.

It’s tough to tell from just one closeup of one spot on one bud.
It’s better to look at the entire plant. You’ll enter a good harvest window when: 1. there are no more new white pistils, except for a random one now and again, and 2. The pistils have turned brown/orange and receded back into the calyce, and 3. The calyces have swollen up.
Once all that has happened you can look at the trichomes. By that time, you should have a huge majority of cloudy trichs with some amber and some clear.
I’ve plants go a couple weeks longer waiting on more ambers and regretted it. In my cases, the buds lost some of their terp profile….so less sticky and stinky. And after those 2 weeks the ratio of cloudy/amber/clear trichs was nearly the same as before.

Also, they'll be drinking noticeably less.

12 hours of darkness (general rule) triggers a hormone that begins the flowering process. It takes 1 to 2 weeks to start, so you're probably closer to 56 days of flower.

I say check back in 2 weeks.

Id wait a bit more for at least 10% amber. If they are indica i like to have just the tiniest bit of amber to avoid surfing the couch and it being too narcotic. Sativas i try to take at like 20% amber.

Also are they soil that should always be my first question.

I have few plants, where pistils are ALL turned brown color maybe a week ago. And trichomas on them are still 70% clear . So… I think trichomas are the finest method to identify a plant readiness for harvest.
Thank you guys!!! Will look at them next week, maybe I’ll wait 2 more!!!
