First of all “Happy Independence Day” to all! We are not perfect but we are FREE! 
This is my first ever grow and I have loved every minute of it. Can’t wait for the next ones to pop.
I have two beautiful White Widow Auto’s. I think its time on one now. If someone could take a look at the Trichomes and let me know what you think. Also, can I harvest the buds that are ready and continue to let her finish? Thanks again for everyone’s help.

Getting close. Maybe a week or two. Don’t want to rush it and pick early.
Good job on your 1st grow.
You will be happy soon.

Ya, agree with @4204life , she could use a little more time. A late harvest is way better than a premature. Nice buds!

Thank you all!! I am just a little freaked out about when. From what I have read here and other places is hard to put that to good use when you really don’t know what the heck you are doing. This was a “let see if we can do this” thing to where I am consumed with it. I have her twin and see is twice the size and much fuller. On her though the pistils have just started to turn and the leaves are a lighter shade. They are supposed to be the same strain but who know.

Well said. I just did my first harvest a couple weeks ago. First grow for me in 20 yrs. I was excited. It is still decent BUT it could’ve been waaay better if I waited a couple more weeks. I will not make that mistake again.

These guys got you covered… To add…
Don’t check tricomes on sugar leaves.

Can I keep you updated? Is there any other changes to expect? Anything really to look for? I have the microscope and I can get some killer pics. Are the trichomes going to increase? Last thing, should I continue the nutrients or just water? One place said to flush them two weeks out. Does switching to plan water do the same thing?

Keep feeding… If you flush or water only it could lead to deficiencies. If you see nute lockout or have salt build up then flush.

The trichomes should be all milky with 20% amber color. Everyone is a little different on this but close. I would get some close up pics every 3 or 4 days and keep an eye on them. You are doing good. I don’t have the microscope yet, used a magnifying glass. Old eyes can’t adjust any more. Lol
Feel free to tag me anytime. Only I feel like an amature around this place. A lot of knowlege on here should problems arise.

Happy 4th of July
You want nearly all those white hairs to turn brown and recede back into the calyx’s then start checking trichomes for cloudy to amber depending on preference. I agree with everyone that posted. A week or two. Yes you can harvest in stages but on a plant that size its all gonna finish about the same time.
Nice job on your first grow

Roger that! Thanks for the help. I paid forty dollars on Amazon for it. It works great, you just need to set the phone down and hold on to the microscope with two hands to hold it steady and then adjust the pic. Finally figured out the best way from trail and error. Happy Independence Day!

Great pic! I got one and finally figured out if I set my phone on a little stool and used both hands to hold it steady, focus it and then press the camera button I got great detail.
