HELP! Help needed with Trichomes/harvesting decision

I am brand new to growing and I am so thankful to this community for helping me through every step. Right now, I am looking at trichomes trying to determine when to harvest. I read a bunch about what the different color trichomes mean, but I’d really appreciate and benefit from the eye of an expert on my garden. There’s a 1000x magnification video of one bud below. What is your opinion on these trichomes? Am I far off from harvest or getting close? I’m hoping for mostly cloudy trichomes because I’m more into euphoria than couchlock. The strain is super silver haze and it should flower for 12-14 weeks. We are in Week 8 of flower right now. Thank you thank you thank you!

Nice looking buds. I'm seeing a fair amount of clear on the vid. I like to wait until I see about 10% amber because at that point the majority should be cloudy. Toughest part is waiting long enough, especially on your first few grows. I know for a fact I took my first ones too soon. Super Silver Haze is a killer strain so you should let go as long as you can.
 
​​​​​​​Gingerbeard - Thanks so much for taking a look. A video from my microscope, taken in normal lighting here: https://youtu.be/Au9CvLElf5M

Gluteous - Thank you very much for the advice. Super silver haze is my favorite to smoke and it's hard to find it so that's why I chose it. I can see why it's hard to find with this long flowering time, but I know it will be worth it. Thanks for the encouragement.
 
Gingerbeard I did check that link out but I kept doubting myself and I really value and have more confidence in the experts on this forum. I’m not using molasses but I will look into that. Thanks so much.
 
Morning 12, and welcome to Gwe, you did great with your first grow, beautiful plant, pictures an video.
Imo, your very close to harvest if your looking for euphoria, I see cloudy, clear, and a little amber, what I've noticed is when the heads of the trichs are full from the weight and start falling over and milky white, it's really potent at that stage.
Hazes, do take longer, so you just need to watch her real close,
I can't wait to see some more of your progress, and pictures, videos.
Great Job #12.
 
I'll definitely keep an eye out for the heads of the trichs getting full and falling over. I'll be sure to post some updates. Thank you soooo much! The encouragement is everything.
