Best way to tell is get a 30x microscope and look at the trichomes, you want the majority cloudy and some amber (1-60%) colored. This usually happens for me when the hairs are between 60 and 80% brown. I start the flush when I notice a few amber trichs and harvest a week or two later, longer = more "stoney" effects.
