sounds like there will be low potency.. i would wait for 3/4 amber trichs that when it should be the most potent. cutting down too early can also offset harvest weight, in ofther words you wont get good weight.... just my ... PEACE

Go by the trichs, not by the hairs. I've grown strains where the hairs stay white the whole life of the plant pretty much.

My suggestion would be: start your flush now. when done, check your trichs. an extra 4-7 days should help. No potency will be lost. You'll just have a different kinda high. Cloudy trichs will produce a heady, sativa like high. More amber will produce a narcotic high body stone.

It comes down to personal preference.

I start my flush when I see mostly cloudy trichs
