How do you check the trichs buried in the center of the bud? The ones you can't see or hear.When a plant is ready you'll notice the water intake go way down, the orange hairs will shrivel up and most of all they'll be orange and not white, if you haven't buy you a 10 dollar jewelers loupe so you can hit the mature window exactly when you want. More milky than Amber is my personal preference. A plant is at its most potency hen all trichomes are milky. The more amber they get, the more couch lock, downer feeling you get. If you like an uplifting smoke that gives you energy euphoria and good mood. Harvest with mostly milky trichomes.If you want a mix of downers and uppers have a 50/50 (best guess) mix of the two. I personally like about 5-10% amber and no more. Asking if a p lant is ready actually has many answers..
These are from 2 days ago, forgot to post cause they were buried. I bought a 60x loupe but it's kinda difficult to use, especially for photos. Definitely buying a digital microscope for the next run.When a plant is ready you'll notice the water intake go way down, the orange hairs will shrivel up and most of all they'll be orange and not white, if you haven't buy you a 10 dollar jewelers loupe so you can hit the mature window exactly when you want.

You've got milky clear and a touch of Amber, it depends on what you like. Do you like to get knocked down, or more social feeling ? If you want more energetic I'd give it ...7-10 more days, The amber you do have is on the sugar leaves.....Look for amber on the buds themselves..These are from 2 days ago, forgot to post cause they were buried.

I'm getting older and my eyes aren't perfect but I do have my glasses on, but correct me if I'm wrong..Are the amber mostly on the sugar leaves?These are from 2 days ago, forgot to post cause they were buried.

I don't guess you do, you look on the inner and outter edges of the buds themselves...Google Amber trichomes on cannabis bud or milky, select images and see what you thinkHow do you check the trichs buried in the center of the bud? The ones you can't see or hear.
Ed Rosenthal says clear trichs are the most potent and cloudy is degraded. IME it depends on the strain what color ripe trichs are.I don't guess you do, you look on the inner and outter edges of the buds themselves...Google Amber trichomes on cannabis bud or milky, select images and see what you think
That's incorrect.Ed Rosenthal says clear trichs are the most potent and cloudy is degraded. IME it depends on the strain what color ripe trichs are.
Amber is the start of quality going to crap. A plant with mostly amber or all amber is considered useless in professional circlesThat's incorrect.
Trichomes are very cloudy – This indicates the optimum harvesting time for most cannabis cultivators. Potency will be at its highest, especially THC count and pain-relieving effects will be at their most beneficial at this stage.
Tell that to some of the autoflower guys. Some say 50% amber is ripe. IDK I do reg photo plants and they are all different. Some plants amber way too soon and some won't amber until they rot or you chop them.Amber is the start of quality going to crap.

Ill post some better pics when its closer to lights on. I believe most were on the sugar leaves and there were some on the top of the buds, I did think the trichomes were still mostly clear my original plan was to wait another 5-7 days and go from there.. I was hoping they all would finish around the same time so I could use my tent for drying.I'm getting older and my eyes aren't perfect but I do have my glasses on, but correct me if I'm wrong..Are the amber mostly on the sugar leaves?
I am going for a more relaxing, anxiety reducing feel but I dont want to be "couchlocked" real bad. I believe I was told to go for a more amber color..You've got milky clear and a touch of Amber, it depends on what you like. Do you like to get knocked down, or more social feeling ?

I didn't say it's wrong. People like what they like but strictly going by textbook standards a 100% or close amber plant is considered useless.

Who's textbook? They all disagree with each other. Just ask Ed.I didn't say it's wrong. People like what they like but strictly going by textbook standards a 100% or close amber plant is considered useless. Im just the Messager
