I thought I was close

I had to relocate my plants. They were looking close before the relocation. After one week in the new home they have sprung on a bunch of white hairs. I'm looking for opinions on how to go about judging ripeness. I have clear cloudy milky and Amber frost across-the-board

white hairs recede into brown hairs, only thing that matters is tric color and personal preference, you can harvest now in my opinion or wait longer for those to foxtail more, i'd personally harvest and start the next plant.

Totally dude, its all about head high , body high etc. The trichome colors all indicate a different stage and or effect and let you know how shes coming along. My personal choice is the first amber trichome I see I look for more and if there is just a sprinkle here and there ??? YANK, CHOP, PROCESS, ENJOY.

This is hydroponic. Do you think I should flush for a couple days and then chop or take it now?

Thats just big chunky 'calyxy' buds no?
Foxtailing is pretty much trying to re-veg no?

There is a proper way and its also controversial lol. All of my plants every time are naked from the soil line to about 12-16 inches up. Everything buried under the canopy will produce but crappy. Good for rolling joints, extracts ect. You can open the canopy by thinning some straggly growth and tucking down big leaves.

It's done!

Fox tailing is an indicator of finish in some sativa's. Mainly the ones that don't amber.

Don't amber? You betcha! I have plenty of strains that do not - at all for many of them. They are mostly newer "uber potent" strains that you hear about. I feel that breeders are actually breeding out the ambering trait - Not on purpose but by it (trait) being related to these uber potent strains...

The white pistils are coming from the plants last ditch effort to reproduce. The calyx's are full, the dry pistils have receded into them, and you see some amber? DONE!

The second pics? Those are done too! Have been for a bit...

Flush? did somebody say the No-no word? Final Flushing........IS a MYTH!

Foxtailing like that could be a good indicator its done, theres allot of amber there and i'm sure the trich's are looking good as well, i cant imagine they would still be clear.
