New Grower Harvest?

I'd let at least one of them go a bit longer. Maybe a week? I see a lot of fan leaves in one picture. In my grow, my trichomes didn't turn cloudy until nearly all the fan leaves were brown and/or fallen (plucked when brown).

What do your trichomes look like?

I would urge you to not be afraid to wait longer than feels comfortable. I had an uncomfortable feeling for about 3 weeks that I was waiting too long. But, it turned out I was doing the right thing.

True. I did have one more week planned totaling a 3 week cleanse so perhaps i shall wait. I need to get me a microscope aswell to check trics ✌️

I bought a $15-20 microscope on Amazon. I didn't find it to be too useful. It's too powerful (80-100x). Move it one direction and what you see moves in the opposite direction. Just too difficult to use and too magnified.

I bought this 40x loupe for $3. I haven't received it yet, but I've read many people say it's perfect for checking trics.

I used this dual-lens magnifier from Harbor Freight for $5.00. Looking through both lenses together is 16.5x and was slightly too little magnification. Between what I experienced with this and the 80x microscope, 40x should be perfect.

The thing I hated about the microscope was how close I had to be to the surface area, and how uncoordinated I felt moving it in the opposite direction of what I was seeing in the viewfinder.
