Ready or another week or two?

[mountaineerfanatic]

I have critical purple auto in week 13 and gorilla glue auto in week 12. I dont have a microscope or magnifying glass. Growing in 5 gallon dwc. I think they have another week or 2 but this is my first grow so I don't know. Also was wondering if I should start giving plain ph water with no nutes yet or not?

Holy crap those look AWESOME! I'd say get yourself a magnifying glass or something, wouldn't want to pull those too soon when they are doing so good! I'm not sure if you can see trichom color from your closeups, but from what you showed, those look milky but no amber yet? Cheers mate, great job!

Good morning my friend, your garden is very beautiful.
He has begun to eat his leaves; Also, with a microscope, he grabbed the pistils (amber). If it's all transparent it's not ready. After these checks you have begun to reddish. Then you are ready. The yellowing of the leaves is normal at the end because they eat the reason for lack of food. good luck. OOO you dont have microscope sorry.

Anyone know if these trichs still look clear or cloudy?

I am not sure but looks 50%50

That's about what I saw too. I didn't see any amber. I believe I'm going to go ahead and do plain ph water with no nutes until they are finished.

That would be the best. It has also been their time. You just wait to see amber!
The reason that they are autos lagging is only if they have stressed.

Amazing looking colas, great growing!
From what I'd go on is the conventional pistils and trichomes. The pistils look nowhere near ready, and the trichomes I am guess are in the clear/cloudy range, but all that is relative and down to what 'effect' you like, I prefer 10-30% amber, so to me it is not ready, some weeks away yet I'd think, but I don't know that strain. Well done tho!
