This question is coming up for me every single time. I am terrible at this! I do not have the tools to be able to zoom in as much so i can see the trichomes. For someone with more experience in their backpack this might be an easy task. Anyone?

Sorry but it is impossible to tell from that photo, you might as well just flip a coin. Or am I not seeing all the photos or something?

Looks like a candidate for cutting colas as they mature, top down. IMO. YMMV.

That's better yeah. Still quite hard to see for certain, but to me it seems like there are some amber trichomes on a couple the trim leaves - but not very many and none on the actual buds yet. Most people would probably prefer the effects after a week or two more. Yield will not increase anymore and you might be close to peak THC %, commercial growers would probably chop now.
I would chop now personally but that's knowing that trichomes will continue to ripen until the cure process is complete. All one needs to evaluate trichomes is a 30X Jewelers Loupe which are readily available for under $20 on sites like Amazon.com
It won't give you the ability to post nice close ups but you'll at least be able to see things more clearly with your own eyes.
