Do you guys think this is ready?

This plant is 2 weeks passed expected finish time. It’s an autoflower. Looks like all pistils have shrivelled and very little growth. The only thing is i do not see any amber trichromes but i am using my iPhone MagnifyGlass so it is kinda hard.

Maybe but it's hard to tell from the pic.

When in doubt let it go a week longer some people say.

Is there anything i can do to make it easier to tell? Close up pics?

I did that already lol. This is the plant on november 26. It had white pistils at this point though

I usually wait until I see at least 10% amber also you can buy a microscope for very little off amazon.

Yea. Gotta stop being lazy. Got a whole list of things i want from amazon but waiting to use my dad’s prime account. I don’t even have a ph pen or ppm reader. Also all the remo nutrients i am using are at least 2 years old from purchase.

A couple more weeks to go based off of this pic.

I got a small hand held Carson microscope for like 15 bucks if you ordered it today you would probably have it in 2 days that what I would do if in your shoes right now what's 2 more days right?

are you saying 2 weeks from the november 26 picture or 2 weeks from today?

Looking at the 1st pic you have posted you are in the chop window. If it were my plant I would trim off all dead leaves touching buds and give it one more week.

Those dead leaves left in the buds can easily turn into bud rot ruining your work.

True i think that is probably best.

Thanks for the quick responses everyone. I will get the dead leaves off of there and order a microscope like the other guy suggested and see how it looks. Will probably wait for another week though unless i see a decent chunk of amber trichomes.

Your going to need to look in the proper spots for what you are hoping to see. So easy to be fooled as a new grower by looking at the sugar leaves instead of the buds.

On top of this many people think they see cloudy trichomes when it's actually light refraction causing that look on clear heads.

It's not this easy thing new growers think it is.

I have not looked at trichomes in years due to this. I look for proper signs from the plant that its ripe.
