Just get a good 60x to 100x scope and let the trichomes tell you.

Clear trichomes = immature

Cloudy/Milky Trichomes = Mature

Amber Trichomes = THC degrading to CBN

Harvest when your trichomes are as clise to 100% Milky/Cloudy but more like 90% Milky/Cloudy and 10% Clear or Amber.

it looks very close. how close nobody can be sure. scope them out every day . because one day they are clear the next they are milky the next most of the are amber . if I had to guess I would say 6 to 10 days tops.

I just need to know whether its near two weeks or what. I have a scope but can't get pics clearly through it. I'm still giving nutes to her half strength cause she's starting week 8 and I know I should give straight water last two weeks so should I start now?

Looks like another week mb two. The buds will put on weight in the next week. I can see they're ripening but they're not quite done.

So I should start flushing her?
I've noticed her buds are becoming dry and not sticky like they started. I've been on half strength so I know its not nutes overdose

I've just heard people talking about flushing so you don't smoke all those chemicals and it be harsh but I'm just being impatient its my first grow so slowly learning still.

The flush is used to flush remaining salts (nutes) out of the growing medium so the plants use up what's left in it's tissue.
 
Two weeks u can starve them next week...I never flush my weed burns fine and tastes great..
So tell me why you don't flush? I don't either I dnt believe that it's flushes the plants i believe it's a made up myth of buds not being flushed.. You dnt flush vegetables when you grow them in your garden or out here in Cali centrl valley growers don't "flush" any produce we eat and I know for a fact that large farms use pesticides etc and no "flush" ...
