I’m 6.5 weeks into flowering first time grower and not sure how close I am to harvest as was thinking of starting to flush any help would be appreciated pics below
Most plants are 8-12 weeks. I’d say they’re doing quite well for 6.5 weeks. I doubt they are ready. You will need better magnification. I would recommend no less than 100x. You’re looking for those trichomes to be cloudy with 15-25% amber. Technically, all cloudy is ripe, but most like to see a little amber. However, the amber means that thc is beginning to degrade and the high will progress to the body to sleepy to couch lock. You can google ripe trichomes and get good visuals.

Get yourself a $15-$20 USB microscope on amazon to plug into your phone. I absolutely LOVE mine, you can see the trichs beautifully and most go uo to 1000x mag… It was so worth the $20

You’ve convinced me, I have been trying to use my phone camera (SG-S20U) which is pretty good but not really great. My scope arrives tomorrow
