My plants seem done, the pistles have receded and the buds look swollen but I'm seeing half n half clear to cloudy and a very small amount of amber. LLik less than 5 percent. Also it's almost two weeks ppast the strains due date.. just looking for a little advise, thanks..

Some pics would help if you can post some up of the buds and overall plant. I go by the overall ripeness, typically that ends up being mostly cloudy and some amber coming in. Here's a couple that I'm watching for reference, they have 4-6 days to go.

I like to go by the over all look of the flower. Some strains don't amber up
Like others do. You're doing the right thing by watch the pistils. I watch for pistils to receed into the bud and very little to no new white pistils coming in. Pics would help us

Sorry guys, I've been trying to put some up but something is going on with the site I guess. it keeps throwing me off every time I try to post a pick.. or if I click on someone else's pic it will do the same. I'll keep trying and again i appreciate the help..

Click to expand...

i would say that's pretty close, within a week anyway. this is the time to check trichs. i don't look for ambers that much, but i do look to see how many are clear/milky. i don't want to see over 5% clear, or it's not ready yet

Yeah, that what I'm looking for is as much cloudy as I can, I just had to ask because they have been looking done for over a week and I just wanted to make sure I didn't wait to long.
