More light might have given ya bigger buds... we all grow and learn and any smokeable harvest is a good harvest.

What strain? What is the breeder's recommended flower time?
55 days is a very short flower time.

I see. Then I think you should just monitor trichomes every couple days until you see the percentage amber you want.

Sounds like a fast plant to be that far along. Anyway, 75% dark trichromes is sleepy time weed, where if you cut when its mostly white, that is a wake up buzz.
Just some yellow leaves around the cola is generally good enough , but just depend on the color of the trichs.

Just finished scoping it, the trichomes about 25%

25% amber trichomes at 55 days? 8 weeks. Must be an indica-dominant strain. If it were mine at 25% amber, I'd chop.

There are many growers who have many varying opinions on ripeness. Personally I choose to go with the pros Rosenthal, Cervantes, Danko etc...I love spending time reading and studying about my favorite hobby. Asking questions on this or any other open forum can be informative but can also be misleading. Sometimes even so ridiculous it is entertaining! Finding your own answers, applying them to your grow, and seeing the results is more satisfying.
Good Luck and Great Grow!

Looking for anxiety relief, so should I let it amber up some more?

Anxiety relief needs more CBD/CBN so more amber, but then that is up to the individual. You can phase the harvest and then sample each to see the desired effect, this works well with larger plants with more buds to harvest. Taking the top once first which usually mature a little quicker. Mark each harvest with the percentage of amber. This could be a gauge for you next harvest, but each strain is going to be different so doing a bit of research on the strain first helps. But when the strain is unknown, like bagseed, then gauging on trichomes and picking different harvest points will help if you are running clones of the same plant.

Hi 705, IMHO. I would chop her now, but before I would take a small Brush and try and take off any Mites you may see first then after your done when you cut her up and get ready for Curing, clean the rest of those little buggers off her, I see by the spots you may have them look close to see them, If you have not noticed Webs on the Lower braches in the very corner where he stem meets the branches you may be ok, But in all my days of doing this those spots like that look like are usually Spider mites , So you should be ready for harvest at the % you mentioned. Oh and make sure you clean you area real well with a good Solution of Bleach and soapy water, them little pest can stay around for months after your exterminate the adults,
At 75% don't wait any longer it should be good to go, The buds look good she should be fine with a bit of work and she should have a higher percent of CBDs with all the amber on her, Keep up the good work and learn all you can your next one should double for you, Peace out ,

You don't think there is also a mag def? Maybe that's whats causing the spots? Lime green around the edges with spots happens in mag deficiencies. And that picture isn't exactly clear. Just for some peace of mine though I would suggest inspecting those plants with a magnifying glass for either the mites or their webs.
Either way disinfecting your grow area is always a great idea.
