Is it ok to chop if all the hairs aren't orange? I looked at it through a scope and they are half cloudy and half amber.

If you mean that the trichomes are 50% amber/cloudy then yes, it's ok, you gotta follow the trichomes more than the pistils although usually they go together.

dude it depends.. some times the hair turns orange before any bud has formed.. so check the TRICHOMES.LOLOL shaped thing on your leaves.

Cloudy trichs signify peak potency, when they turn amber its downhill. I have been harvesting when you get a few amber but the majority of trichromes are milky.

Trichomes and bud swelling are the best indicators of when to harvest. Pistil color doesnt really matter as much.
