Close up pics of trichomes - Should I start chopping?

[topshelf95]

Day 56 since switching to 12/12. 4 different strains. Cookies Kush, Northern Lights x Big Bud, Hash Bomb, medi bomb. The pictures of the trichomes were taken today. There are a couple of bud shots from a few days ago. Do you think these are ready to come down? Any help greatly appreciated!! Thank you!

These bud shots are a few days old now.

Wow. Great pics. What kind of camera do you use? Indica or Sativa?

Wow. Great pics. What kind of camera do you use? Indica or Sativa? Sativa I would say yes. Indica probably not. But I'm not very experienced, so please get some more opinions.

Thank you! Indica. Here is the camera I used.
Plugable USB 2.0 Digital Microscope with Flexible Arm Observation Stand for Windows, Mac, Linux (2MP, 250x Magnification)

It will zoom in even further. It's kind of nuts how far it gets in there. I tried one of the small pocket microscopes but it kind of messes with my eyes because the viewing holes are so small. You can cut a small bud off and put it on the tray and zoom in perfectly wherever you want and how far in you want.

Thank you so much! First grow so it's sort of been a learning curve. Thank you for taking the time to help with advise!

Look at your 8th and 9th picture above. The trichomes are starting to turn amber. It's a question of how much CBN you want relative to THC.

15 plants total, scrogging, 10x10. The pic above with the bunch of tops is one 5x5 section of the tent. The other two sections look different. First time and all, different height plants, learning to scrog. I have a grow journal here. You'll be able to see the whole setup pretty much except for the opening post where I detail my setup has changed a bit. I now have a mini split in the flower tent and the veg tent went from a 5x10 to a 10x10.

Thank you handjive!! It's my first grow ever so it's kind of been a baby to me. I only think it's easier to grow indoors because you can control the environment. CO2, temp, humidity, watering schedule, etc., and if you're careful don't have to worry about pests. Thats a great compliment, thank you very much!
