I would say so…once the pistol’s(or hairs)are mostly turning from white to orange and you don’t notice any new growth and the buds are slowing in growth is when I start my flush
Looking good! Do you have a loupe or other means of looking at the trichomes? Just looking at the buds I’d say hold off on the flush until you see more pistils brown / orange and the buds swell

I do and I can see it looks on half of them to be 90% cloudy on the bigger ones they are around 60% cliudy

At 90% cloudy I’m entertaining a chop so I’d definitely be flushing. I personally don’t like much amber if any. Is this your first time harvesting? I found on my first few plants it was rather difficult to determine if they were cloudy. I was mistaking half clear half cloudy for cloudy. Again just visually they don’t look ready to me. The second to last picture looks closer. The last picture looks quite a ways out. However, trichs are king and if you are happy with how they are looking you gotta do what you think is right.
This is my second grow and my first time I harvested early so I’m not sure what to be looking for

That’s how I felt for the first three - four plants. Then I let one go, like half amber, and watched the trichs progress. I have a much better feel for it after that process.
Around how much longer until you think I should flush?
Purely guessing at this point because different plants progress differently. I’d say second to last picture maybe two weeks til flush, depending what she does in the meantime obviously. Last picture maybe a month.

Okay couldn’t see this one clear under the other lighting. That definitely looks in the ball park to be flushing if the trichs look good to you. Just make sure your looking on the calyxes not the sugar leaves
