Need to see more trichs on the bud but for me it looks like a couple of days. Maybe even a week or so as none on the bud turned amber.

This will help.
2nd picture is not a good guage. When looking at Trichome maturity you must look at the Bud itself. The triches that form on sugar will mature MUCH faster then thosenon the buds. You will want to begin looking 1/3 of the way down the plant (maturity happens from the top down) as well as 1/3 of the way down the bud you are examining.
Your pic is a lil far away but I see a few white hair still and many of the red ones also sticking out straight. When she is done those hair will lay down on the bud. You want to be sure to not harvest too early the last couple weeks are for swelling and ripening. Big weight and Big taste.
How many weeks of flowering are you, and what strain is this beauty.
She looks close 2 weeks tops 1 week min is my guess.

She looks real good, should be a nice harvest. She is for sure close. You could chop her today and be happy but I think you will be even happier if you chopped her in a week. Imma tag a growmie here for 2nd opinion. @Borderryan22 thoughts? If you do let her sit for another week, consider only giving her water. It doesnt even have to be phd. She will begin to turn fall colors and start consuming the stored nutes she has onhand in the leaves and stalks. This will help smooth out the smoke of your final product. In a way doing, this at the end week or 2 is like a pre cure. Many call it a final flush but, I think that confuses people with flushing soil to reset its ph and ec values. So, I call it nutrient restriction.

Looks good!!! I’m gonna throw that oh so common “couple more weeks”. When lloking at the triches, clear ones have that shiny, glass like appearance. The cloudy will appear more dull and pearlescent. Then the white hairs still say more time as well. I’d say you can start flushing soon.

Just kind of zoomed in more and noticed some slight foxtailing. I’d go ahead and justvstart giving plain water and shoot for 7-10 days.

Weeks, feed amounts and solutions, runoff PH and TDS and techniques used are important data, its a good idea to keep track of it throughout the grow.
I use an app called Jane
It helps and keeps track of just about everything.

That’s what I go for my friend i stick with indica for pain and skunk strains work really well @Shazam
This is a blend that is sativa dominant but supposed to be good for pain, also groing sunset sherbert. Have 2 photo periods that look like they are going to have a healthy harvest, although having issues with spider mites even though spraying with CJ dead bug
This plant is Bruce Banner
