Just updated with detail pics of the buds from my DSLR. Trying to understand when they will be ready to harvest.
No pics of the lanky girl this week. She continues to grow in height and definitely in weight. The other three Auto Critical CBD I think are done fattening up - I don't see any further growth in bud size. The smell great. Have been flushing for about a week and I think the trichomes are just starting to turn cloudy (I think). The hairs on the buds are maybe 25-30% brown. I think I'm a week or so close from harvest!

The only reliable way to tell when to harvest is to look at your trichomes through a magnifying glass. Clear= not ready. cloudy= reaching maximum thc levels. Amber= the thc is starting to convert to CBD and other less desirable chemicals. The plant will slow down growth and you will notice the little buds swelling up. The hairs will start to die off. It is a good idea to start monitoring your trichomes when you have about 50% brown pistils(hairs) she will be close then. Good luck

@DILLIGAF, I got a bunch of good answers to help me know when the girls are ready. Started flushing last week just in case, but I think it will be at least another week.
Do you know how to close an open question? I have a few more and would like to ask, but I can't with an already open question.

Watch for the Calyxes to swell. You want most of the callyxes to swell to the point that they mostly swallow the pistils. I've been dissappointed a couple times because I cut when the pistils change color. After they change color the calyxes will swell causing the buds to fatten, after that they start to develop massive amounts of trichomes on the sides of the calyxes. These are the trichomes you desire the most, not the ones on leaves and branches. If you chop earlier than this the bud might be alright, but it will be way better if you let the buds develop lots of trichomes all over fat buds.

Thanks! That's great information. I'm all about simplicity, although I am sure I will get more sophisticated with future grows.
