It is 9 weeks into flowering. OG Kush from RQS. Stated flowering time is 7-9 weeks.
I have not noticed much change in the past week. The trichomes... They are not 100% cloudy. It depends on where I look, they are mostly cloudy or half cloudy. I am noticing more broken trichomes, I think. All leaves are starting to point down.
The lower buds are not as developed, but, like I said, they don't seem to be changing.
Should I maybe cut half of, and leave the lower ones to mature. Can this cause any issues? Also, on a few colas, the sugar leaves seem to be strangly yellowing at the edges.

i'd say a week or two. the trichs on leaves mature faster than the ones on calyxes. if you zoom into those pics, i don't see any amber on the leaves at all, which means there is surely none on the the calyxes
of course, it could be one of the strains that has had the trait of "ambering" bred out of it. if you don't see any soon, i'd consider it a good possiblity

I never go by breeder times. It never seems accurate unless you can match their specific grow conditions somehow. Almost always 1-2 weeks longer to start getting amber trichomes. These look so pretty but I would give them a flushing and wait another week.

Don't guess. Buy a small microscope so you can see the changes in trichome color
I do have a loupe, but like I said, no amber. Maybe some on the bigger sugar leaves, like 5 amber trichs on a leaf. Maybe 0,5%. They are almost 10weeks into flower right now.

EVERYONE! Forget OG Kush, I think my Sour Diesel is showing amber early! What the heck should I do? It's like 1% amber, but still, there are like 20% clear. And It's in front of it's 10-11week scheduel. He is 67days. I wasn't ready for this, been looking only at OG Kush. I didn't even flush him. What do I do? Do I harvest????

It's not 1% , more like 10% , depend where I look

I would wait for more of the hairs to die back, you should flush now if you're planning on doing it though.

10 -11 weeks is 70-77 days. you're at 67 days. its not a huge deal. they look like they still need a few more days to me, i didn't really see that much amber, and the few i did see were on leaves, not calyxes. the calyxes look like they're about 50/50 clear/milky yet.

1 - 2 weeks based on the pics. You still have a few fat straight white hairs. Looking good though. I'm guessing you already harvested, let us know what you think.
