Harvest & Curing Is my plant ready to flush pre-harvest?

[chankao]

Hi all!

This is my frist grow. Bought a critical auto seed (picture from the seed box).
Im getting into the fifth week of flower now and just recently recovered my plant from a nutrient burn caused by a ph lockout.

I used my usb microscope to checkout my trichomes and for my surprise, the trichomes are more milky than i expected, because the timeframe from the vendor was from 8 to 9 weeks of flowering.

Can you help me figure it out if its close to start the flush?
Feel free to ask for some more information if its necessary.
Thx!

You should use a loupe to look at your trichomes. I think the light from the scope is making the trichome look more cloudy than they are (backscatter) because the buds do not look ready.

I don't flush. I used to but IMPE it does not make a difference.
