low flyer
I have a low flyer auto from cks it's around 70 days it's says it should be ready by 65 it's got a bunch coke can size buds on it the only thing is the trics are still clear I've been flushing for about 6 days the leaves are starting to yellow do u know if this strain will have it's trics turn cloudy or Amber and how long should i wait for them to do so before i have to cut it down to cure..
 
Welcome to AFN! Congrats on getting this far! All trichomes should change color. From clear... To cloudy.. Then amber. Some strains even have trichs that turn purple or reddish. But cloudy is the mosy commonly use harvest indicator. Most people harvent when the majority of trichs are cloudy and about 10-15% amber. Hope that helps a little!

Thats Great advice @Prophetiko , from what ive heard there are some strains that dont clearly go "amber" at the end,, the best advice is that since they are past the breeder number of days,they are also in flush( for about 8 days now) and leaves are starting to yellow up, they may be close, which brings us back to "when do i chop" ,,I would go ahead and chop 1/4 to 1/2 of the plant and start the dry cure process, give the rest of the plant a few more weeks to finish/ripen and see if the trichs start to change.. This may help you find the "sweet spot" if you decide to grow that strain again... Keep us posted and good luck..
