Week 7 flowering progress, should I start flushing?
I'm in week 7. Should I start flushing now? The mature/fattest buds seem to be at about 50% converted to orange hairs which are just starting to curl in. Trichomes are milky but not turning brown/amber yet. Please take a look at the most recent pics to form an opinion!

Is my SLH ready for harvest?
my 1st grow.. and this is the 14th week of my SLH from greenhouse seeds. Im wondering if it's ready for harvest. I think there's 50% amber pistils but trichomes are mostly all clear but I'm not so sure. What do you all think? Harvest this week?

Checked trichomes today
Got a microscope today to check trichomes, looking for an opinion? I'm thinking they are starting to lean more on milky side. When to look for harvesting? Would like a really strong potency if that helps. Thank you in advance!

Time to harvest? And call for general feedback!
Hi all you pros! I haven’t used any questions, so I figured I’d ask for some general feedback of what I can do better next time with the same setup, and also whether y’all think this is done? I’m worried I’m jumping the gun a little, since I only see a few amber? Thanks!

almost 3 weeks into flower and my hottest days are at 85F. nights usually 71. I'm using 2 lights and don't want togo to 1, which would help a couple degrees. Curious if 85 is bad for flower and trichomes or what I could try to bring it down..?

Is this plant a boy?
So two of my plants have flowered, however a third seems somewhat shorter and doesn't seem to have Pistil. Is this plant not yet flowering, is it male, or is something else going in here. Looks healthy other than that.
