Ripeness. Early harvest or keep going 2 more weeks like the genetics are supposed to?

1st grow ever: My Purple Cookies by Greenpoint is only starting week 7 of what is supposed to be 9-10 week flowering time per genetics. Do these buds look like the trichomes are turning early? When should I chop?

Bud pics looks like they would still fatten up for sure (I’d give at least one more week) True some of the trichomes already amber, but still would wait untill 40% them are amber. Anyway if you decide to chop, think thats ready enough. But extra week or two could maybe bring up +25% weight still. Up to you. Some of the nugs looks a bit lossy/airy so they’d definitely gain weight still. Idk have you used much of some ripen/bloom booster-supplements? In a large amounts they usually makes your plant look like a ready to harvest, but they would still gain weight.

Holy shit thats a frosty plant lol. Hard to tell by pictures but if the Trics are nice and cloudy and you have 5%-30% amber then its up to you when you want to chop her. More amber = more coucher
