Need help deciding if she is ready - First grow

I am not sure how long they have been in flower. I lost my Grow with Jane data.

This is ILGM White Widow. I am thinking she’s ready but first grow so not certain about the trichomes, if they are clear or cloudy.

Here are a bunch of pics

What kind of feeling are you looking for? Im seeing clear/cloudy with a touch of amber. If you want max thc, check in a week to see if the clears have cloudied up.

Good advice right above me here. Let the clear ones cloud up some more at least.

Ok, I definitely don’t want couchlock looking for a functional high so maybe less THC? I have a AK-47 and Bubblegum in the tent as well, that I started at the same time. This one is the farthest along so anxious to get to drying and curing.

Also worried about the yellowing leaves, I am hoping it is just at the end of its life vs an issue. I have been dealing with yellowing leaves for most of the grow on all of them.

Thanks, appreciate the perspective…I think that is more helpful for newer folks than experienced growers realize.

Yes, thanks for the information. I ordered a microscope, so hopefully that will help with getting a better view. I will stop nutes now, with the plan to harvest in 1 or 2 weeks.

Looking good! I am w the majority perfect time to water only she’s getting close. The pistols should continue turning a copper color and start receding into the bud. At this point I am checking trichomes daily.

Trichs good. Pistils brown. Can harvest now. 70-100% cloudy head high. 5% amber light lock great high. 15% amber lock setting in. Amber trichs are not thc. Degraded to cb. Just the formula I use for our medical grows. Heavy sedated as in 15% or better makes great sleep med. 70% cloudy slightly racy. I like 90-100%cloudy or 95cloudy-5% amber for head. Just me and my clients. Pistils browned to 70% or better is also an indicator of ripeness. Just like any fruit…strawberry for example…can wait too long.
