Its really hard to tell if your trichomes are ready though a pic. You actually need a magnifying glass or something like a jeweler's loop to properly see trichomes up close. That being said, your trichomes should be cloudy on about 80% of your plant. If they seem cloudy and not clear, thats your time to chop. If you harvest too early(clear, see-through trichomes), your thc content is lower. If you harvest too late(amber, brownish trichomes) you get a very couch-locked, lazy high. If you hit that sweet spot(cloudy trichomes) at harvest, your buds will go down smooth, have almost optimal thc levels, and produce a nice high.

Also go by trichomes on flowers, not the leaves.

Go by amber trichomes: 10% highest THC content. Very head heavy effect, remain energetic. 20% nice calming effect, still energetic, but relaxing to the body. 30% couchlock. Munchies and video games. 50%+ sleep aid. Very strong. Catatonic.
