My first harvest. Are these trichomes cloudy? I have seen other threads here that would show the same white trichomes as ready, or I could been looking at it wrong.
Thanks.

Well, most of the triches in the photo look like they are mostly cloudy, check the plant at different places for consistency. Don't forget to allow for one full week of flushing with water only before harvesting and curing.

pictures a bit blurry, but from what i can see it looks about done but do what tazz said check different areas of the plant both on top and lower. Also its all growers preference if you want to let it gain more amber trichs. some people do 75% THC and 25% amber to ensure full quality and harvest time. Good Luck bro. i just started a white widow strain

I'd say the leaves aren't dead enough to do more than a topping. The seed pod insides will swell with resin as the rest of the plant dies. I'm looking around for a pic to compare it to.

Your bud tops are ripe first, you can harvest these without damaging the rest of the crop. And the plant top is where it starts. I bet you knew that already. Idk. Cut one or some, test it if you have a way. I will dry it in the oven and wax it as my test.

I have harvested early once and went through proper drying and curing and gotten little satisfaction from the "high". This will happen but it will teach you as well.

Thank you everyone for your feedback. As an update, all of the triches are cloudy on her. I started flushing July 27 because I thought I was supposed to look at the hairs that come out of the flower to turn copper. I had read of another post that white widow triches might not turn copper.
