well brah....first off lots of trics and to me wit that view they still look pretty clear.... but u need that microscope to b for sure....instead of buyin one off ebay u should have jus went to Radio Shack and got a pocket microscope(i jus recently got one, and works great)...once u get urs check em out...if u believe that ur plant is a sativa/sativa dominant, then u want to harvest when mostly clear to cloudy to get the full sativa high.....and if u have only been flushin for 3 days u need to wait atleast a total of a wk, if not 2-3 jus to b safe......i jus finished my first and was told to get the pocket microscope from RS an was told all the stages of the trics from some one who has 20+ yrs experience...so it should b pretty accurate...o and to help wit the dryin process, stop watering 3-7 days prior to harvest...GL hope this helps
