This plant has lots of brown pistils and is more advance than my others. Looking for suggestions based on these pictures, is it time? Outdoors, SoCal, I expected a October harvest

Hey @ace4you , I’m in SoCal too. It looks like they are getting close, but the best way to tell is to get a small microscope that plugs into your phone. I got mine for $25. from Amazon a few weeks ago and it is amazing. Just be sure to look for one that is compatible with your phone (mine had 5 different adapters in the box so it fits anything). The only other suggestion on it that I would make is to be sure that you get one with a stand as well. Some include it, some don’t. Mine did not, I didn’t think that I would need it, but it sure would be handy as it’s hard to hold steady at high magnification. Here’s a couple of trichome pictures from today with it.
Can you spot the spider mite?
They all came from this plant:
But I would say that although you are definitely close, it looks like a little longer from the pictures you posted. You will be looking for anywhere from 30% to 50% amber trichomes for a good balanced high. Hope that helps.
Several weeks (3 or more) left in my opinion Grow Bro. I wouldn’t recommend going over 20% amber on the trichomes, cheap jewelers loop works well
