yup they just getting milky they need more time,when about say 75% are amber,also the plant should appear to be dieng when you harvest thats good it means its using up its final life supports,thats the reason for watering with plain water and flushing it a week or 2 in advanced of harvest as to remove as much nutrients from the soil so it uses its stored up nutrients and will leave you with a better taste so you wont have a bunch of stored up nutrients in it,and salt build up also that can leave you with nasty buds,so just be patient,it will tell you when its done some tall tale signs are the hairs should be dead and cureld up and where they come out of the calyxes will be ripe looking an the trichomes should have a bent mushroom appearance with gold tinge all over.
These picture are fdd's harvest toutorial,the first is a ripe bud the second is a unripe bud.

Looking good dude,just keep watching how it grows, and you will catch on to all the signs.I see its using up stored nutrients
I'm noticeing the change of leaf colour now... you guys are great
Smaller leafs on buds going purple like the stem just below it...
that is good,just keep flushing it,and it should be ready soon,when all the fan leaves are dead and falling off then it should be close,the purple may be cause of cold temperatures or just genetics

Yup its actually a beautiful thing when they get ugly that means time to go!! Most of those fans will be dead and gone before the buds are ready...you will know when its right... The more amber you allow the heavier the high will be, less amber trichs lighter brain buzz..i have some in my flower room turning all kinds of colors and its just like fall outside the leaves change as the winter nears...mother nature sends all the energy to the "flower" for reproduction to keep the species alive thats why the leaves die off they are giving all thier goodies to your giant nug best of luck with her @@@

hehe the top fan leaves are now turning yellow and the purps have spread a little...
Walked past my plant today while still a bit high on DMT... gives extra shades in the green spectrum...
I could see the plant in a whole new way, the colas were this pretty dark blue green.
I think the leaves will start falling off tommorrow, alot of the trichs are getting amber.
And the horrible chlorofill smell has started to go.
I think its time.
Will take a pic in the morning before proceeding, just for a final thumbs up.

I did not read all the messages in the thread so likely this has been covered but Haze varieties normally take longer to fully mature but the best way to know and to be sure when a plant is ready to be harvested will always be by going by the color of the trichomes and by nothing else.
Normally when someone purchases beans they read the description and it will give a rough period of time for flowering and the thing to do is to begin checking the trichome color at the earliest flowering time given, as in if the description says 8 to 9 weeks begin checking at 8 weeks, etc.
Harvest when the trichomes are the color that will give you the high or stone that you most prefer and go by that alone and not by given dates or pistil colors or just wanting a heavier yield so you decide to wait another week or whatever.
