  2. She looks good. I'm going to guess that this is probably around the 6th or 7th week of flower? I have heard that you want to let it go until 80% of the pistels are either red or orange and you should also watch for them to be sucked back inside of the bud.
     
  3. Thanks for the reply. And yes the bottom one is around 6 weeks in, and the top one is around 7 weeks. Idk why it happened like that because both of them are outdoors. I thought it might have been where the top one is only like 2 ft. tall, and the bottom one is like 5 ft. and bushy. And goin by the the percentage of hairs, wouldn't the top one be almost ready? Because Id say around 60% of them are red.

    look at the trichomes under a 30-100x magnifier. when 15-30% of the cloudy trichs have turned amber it's time to harvest
     
  5. They both look great.

    I do think so. And I agree with wwpk (though I usually cut a little earlier). It will be useful to examine the trichomes, paying particular attention to the trichomes on the bud itself, on the calyxes, as opposed to the trichomes on the leaves. If your camera, which takes very nice pictures, has a macro setting, that may give you a look at the trichomes.
