If they're saying they're done, they most likely are. whats a guess on the ratio of cloudy to amber. 50/50 is what most people shoot for. What is the flower time listed for the strain? Some pheno types finish a little earlier than others.

who knows how long it could take. Just let it go until you get the correct trichome ratio you want. Just check it everyday.

Well, I would hope you get a few seeds to save the strain, but I would be tempted to let it go for a while longer, i wait for the hairs to recede and let the bud become denser.
Maybe you have a particular strain with a over driven cbn/thc producing characteristic. It would be a nice thought, and a nice one to save if it is. But I think you would be safe to let it go for weeks longer, 5 and a half is not very long flowering. Autos do flower that fast hardly.
Good luck, and wish i had your delima

Every plant is different man. I dont use chemical nutrients so my flush is only about 4-7 days at most. It's just a trial and error kinda thing. No pictures doesnt help your cause also. I personally don't like my bud 75% amber, but more power to you.

Yeah I like the up head high moreso. guess thats why I grow mainly sativas. That sounds like alot of chemical nutrients for it to be organic lol. I would flush for 7-14 days like you said. It's hard to time it right if you havent grown the strain before and don't know what it's going to do. I'd say let it get 35-40% amber then start flushing to acheive the 75% you want. But don't trust me on that, thats just my best guess.
