So, still a noob, made a bunch of mistakes on this first grow, but I'm learning and enjoying. I'm coming close to my first harvest and I realize I don't have anything to help me judge trichomes other than my phone. I would like to get some insight on all you awesome experts here on how much longer you think I need to go before harvest.

This is my Girl Scout Cookie, I'm not seeing much amber coloration.

And this is my Strawberry Cheesecake, which I do see a fair bit of amber trichomes here on the main cora, but not near as much as on the other stems.

How much longer till harvest do you guys think??

Weeks, light, soil,etc?

Autos or photos?

I wait for more amber. It’s all personal preference.

Btw they look good

They are about 10.5 weeks from seed autoflowers, ran on 300wt for about 5 weeks then got a 1000wt full spectrum LED, using ocean Forest soil. Didn't realize that I shouldn't using nutrients as much with Ocean Forest so I had a lockout twice, but they recovered. In 3 gallon fabric pots, consistently watered when soil felt it needed it.

I would say if you’re not already switch to plain ph water. Then if not sure you can take sample buds and try them. Or you can wait until the plant leaves start dying off and/or fading, it stops drinking as much water, the smell will completely change all of a sudden, and you have the amber you’re looking for.

When all those line up you are officially out of reasons and you get out your choppers.
