First Grow with great genetics, but still flowering after 10 weeks from 12/12

Hello everyone,
I wanted some advice about these plants. I have 2 motherlode kush and 1 lavender. 5 weeks veg and now 10 weeks since the switch. I have grown a few times before, but really started studying ph, ppm, etc.
The question is....I am still looking at cloudy tricomes without any amber after 10 weeks .
I know that some people count the weeks from pistils and not 12/12, so how much longer do you think?
Thanks for helping.

10-11 weeks is about right for most strains. Plants look very close to being done but another week never hurts. I go by density once they get to this point but then again I prefer rock hard nuggets. As long as all of the pistils have turned to orange and receded back into the bud you can hang and dry. Trichomes will continue to develop long after you cut the plant; it is a chemical process.

Hard to tell what's what, the first two photos look to me like the plants could easily go another week... I'd go a little longer and see how it looks, the last two photos look closer to me... but always hard to say from photos? Either way, maybe give it a few days and see how you feel about it. You can always chop based off your feeling of whether they're done.

Thank you for the information.
Still learning .
I'm going to give it another week and start flushing .
I've been feeding light nutes now.

I've been feeding light nutes the past week.
Thank you.

Id scope half way down main cola, tip degrades from light and fingers. Half way down gives most accurate read on plant, just my opinion. I feed till chop.

I’d wait another week at least no need to flush other then toilets and best of luck.

Don't feel bad. I had an outdoor plant take 15 weeks in flower.

10 weeks is the average flower time in my opinion. So that just means you are above average!

Good job
