Great great advice. I plan to do that too. Do u have a day 81 pic for that PE?
What if trichs are starting to amber but still lotsa white pistils. Do you still wait?
Any other last warning signs?

cheers @Equatorial. Sorry I don't have a day 81 pic. Those were the last shots I have.
If there's loads of ambers, that would be the main signal, the last few white pistils won't make much difference to the final weigh in, and their trichs should get milky quickly anyway.
You have to judge it really, if you wait too long, you risk getting mould and that will cut into your final yield.
At the moment, my Night Queen is pushing out extra flowers all over. What were once nice bullet shaped colas, are now spiky grenades! Once those new flowers aren't popping out so much and that new growth is slowing down, I'll get twitchy with the clippers. I'll try and get some macro shots to show you, but what I'm seeing is the new flowers pushing through have white pistils, but the bud itself already has all milky trichs. White pistils will brown off very quickly, ones I saw in my last pics have all browned off, so she's really close now.
I'd imagine a final warning sign would be a dramatic drop in the amount they drink.... once they're done building buds and the plant is ripe, I'd expect it to not need as much nutrient and you'd see the effects of that.
I've run plants till pretty much all the large leaves have fallen off.... that's probably as far as they can go I reckon.

Thank you so much! I chopped a PE today and I have not even updated on my own thread. Am gonna post it here as my way of saying thanks. Not that its a big deal though but I hope its the thought that counts? Really appreciate the time and reply!

Time for an update, I've been so busy with all sorts of shit, and there's all this bud to harvest.
I've given the Pineapple Express a good flush and she's down..... I cropped her on day 81.
She was in a bad way, but she made it to the end. Under all those brown leaves, there was plenty of nice looking bud....
This is how she looked once I pulled out all the dry leaves.....
I was surprised how many thick colas she had....
The scissor hash was lovely, so I'm looking forward to smoking some of this. The long stems are hanging in a cardboard box, and the rest is brown paper bagged and hanging from a sock dryer.
With the impending house inspection next week, I had to start flushing the Glueberry 2 and the Night Queen.
The Night Queen is just immense for an Auto Indica....
from above you can see how much girth she has..... roughly 70cm by 85cm.....
She was just bursting with big knobbly colas, the Top Shooter really squeezed as much out of her as possible....
I started chopping her last night, day 85, and I'll finish her tonight.
Tomorrow I'll start chopping the Glueberry 2. Her buds are heavy.... she's opening up with the weight. Leaves are browning off, trichs are milky with some ambers, so she's ready as far as I'm concerned. Here's a close up...
Glueberry 1 is still going on strong.... nice sticky buds, but they have a lot of fattening up to do.
I've not been able to give her my usual Top Shooter cos I'm having trouble getting supplies so far out here in the wilderness, so she's been on basic nutes with the usual other additives, Roots XL, Bud XL, Multizyme and Bud Candy.
I still have no idea what the pH is. I just can't pull my finger out and deal with the defective probe on my Bluelab Guardian. All it takes is a quick test and an email.... it's been weeks now, and I still haven't done it!
Still, she's looking nice and frosty....
Thanks for checking in!
