About to Chop. New pistil growth or foxtailing?

I’ve posted before but I promise last time Im asking about this harvest guys. 18/19 weeks flowering (planted 2/18, switched light cycle to 12:12 5/18). Using a Mars Hydro grow tent with fox farm nutrients. Only been using water for the last few weeks. They look ready to me except for the amber trichomes I don’t see many. And recently they began growing new pistils and I can’t tell if I should wait for those or it’s foxtailing or…? Thoughts? Thank you!

Second to the last pic is foxtailing, the others could be chopped, don't see much amber, but some plants are like that. At 18 weeks in flower, you gotta think they're done. Let's see what the concensus is.

18 wks holy moley thats like landrace sativa. I did 20 wks before but it was like my first grow and I didnt know potency was dwindling. It was only growing white hairs due to mold, stress and fox tailing.

I would of chopped at week 12 if they still werent done unless its supposed to. Thats landrace flower times though. Ive chopped at week 12 on a plant once due to it just limping too long.

Infact I had to learn to chop no matter what at wk 10 since I do perpetual clones. If it finishes 10 wks on the dot half the time or more I just assume I messed something up and continue the chain.

Ive let it gone 2 more wks only to still have a couple dozen white hairs per plant. I do hash only but if it were weed and I needed to make a ton of it.. I still would apply the move it forward tactic.

Letting veg plant veg longer is bad. The plant gets older and risks accumilating infection bugs etc. My clones that flip on time just grow happier.

I know thats just me but if I didnt perpetuate sure you can let it finish but its not end of world to chop with some white hairs. Sometimes you gots to.
