Here are some pics i took before they went to sleep an hour or so ago, I can try macro mode tomorrow.

Those look about ready. They could maybe go for one more week, but they're in the harvest window now.

Thanks for looking back through my posts to find when I went to 12/12, just a bit busy here so you were faster than me haha

I may take the smaller one in the next few days and let the other go for a week or so longer.
The smaller being the one with less white hairs.

Thank you for your help @Tracker I'm excited! The bpdh definitely need more time and so does the skunk number 1, its still very hairy and has one main cola that needs to mature.

Here are some shots of blue gelato from my other tent, im practicing with the macro now

Awesome! On an unrelated note I found mold on a bpdh cola today :/ I took the top half of the cola and then some just to be sure, and then I pushed the bpdh around some so they don't touch each other so much.

I started cutting some of the mature plants today, I got most of the emerald fire and some of the scrambler haze. The mold made me wanna chop

Do you have fans circulating air in the grow tent? Do you have a hygrometer in there? What RH is it showing?

I have a 6 inch oscillating fan on max at canopy level, and my hygrometer broke but I imagine it's quite high. I will dig around for another hygrometer in the house when I'm less busy tonight.

I came up with an idea though, I grabbed the pots and pulled them towards the door so the colas leaned towards the back and or stood up, so there's alot less touching now.

High humidity in the latter half of flower greatly increases the likelihood of mold/rot. I try to keep it below 50% at this point.

How do you keep it down? I have extraction going at max. I suppose i could put a dehumidifier in there

@Tracker I got a dehumidifier in there today. I also took some up close and macro shots of the bpdh and the one single shot that shows the oscillating fan is a pic of the skunk number 1 cola.

Also pictured is the bpdh cola I had to partially tear up due to mold. No mold has been found since thankfully

And finally, how done do these tops look? Leaves got crispy early

The tops are looking pretty close to ready. I look for few to no new white pistils, and the orange pistils curling back into the flowers.

When checking trichomes, I look for minimal clear, mostly cloudy, some starting to turn amber. This is on the meat of the bud, not the sugar leaves. The trichs on sugar leaves usually tend to look more mature before the trichs on the main part of the bud.

Just a little longer on the BPDH.... maybe 1 week. The Skunk looks like 2-3 weeks.

Nice! I hope so on the bpdh but I'll let it go longer if I have to. And yes the skunk is taking forever lol

Thanks I appreciate these tips. I wish i was better at checking trichs omg it's a pain hahaha

I use something like this for checking trichs. It connects to my phone via wifi. Can view live image and take pics. Works pretty good. This isn't the exact one I have. Mine is at least 4 or 5 years old, but it's the same size/shape.

I have a wired version of that, it's probably almost the exact same but I couldn't get it to take pictures. Maybe I will try a new app with it
