Your going to need to wait till you get your microscope to see the trichomes. Also I would harvest based on % of milky,amber and clear trichomes and the weather,which brings us to the purple leaves. It's just a combination of genetics and the cold weather. Hope this helps. Also here is a link about trichomes and harvest.Ok so I got a few more pics through a 30x and 60x jewelers loop taken with my phone. The pics are still not as zoomed in as I see in some other pics. temps are starting to drop and we have had a bunch of rain.
I want a body high instead of a head high and I read for that you want more amber trichomes. I can't really tell if there are any amber tricomes in here? Do you guys see any?
Also I read since it is outdoor grow washing the buds is a good idea.
Lastly the leaves are turning purple which I read is a phosphorous deficiency. Should I pick them anyway due to this?
your there
no your a good zone, not early not way late..Ok thank you. Do you think I waited too long? Is this too many amber?
Now it's off to home depot to buy some buckets for washing.
no your a good zone, not early not way late..
what’s the strain?
great way for you to learn right hereOk so I got a few more pics through a 30x and 60x jewelers loop taken with my phone. The pics are still not as zoomed in as I see in some other pics. temps are starting to drop and we have had a bunch of rain.

Hi, just my opinion, anything that sticks to the resin is not going away because of washing with water, so whats the point ?
Besides, hanging washed buds to dry increases the risk of getting fungus.
Make sure you have enough ventilation while drying and check the buds daily.
Good luck !
And about harvest time, I'd say part is fact and part is preference.There seems to be some people who swear by washing and others who say it's pointless. Being an outdoor grow I could see all kinds of crap on the buds when I looked at them up close.
Washing seemed to take a lot of it off.
Please read my thread in the harvesting section as I am asking about my dehumidifier Temps etc.
I had a fan on the buds Hung up for 1.5 hours, undiluted there were no actual water drips on them before I moved them to the drying tent.
Now I have a dehumidifier small oscillating fan on the floor and 6" 400 cfm fan exhaust ingredients air out of the tent. I would think this is enough airflow?
I'm having a hard time with my Danby 50gal dehumidifier as if I set it to 50% I'd constantly goes from 60% ( turns on) and then down to 45% ( turns off). It keeps cycling like this every 2 min.
I wonder if the dehumidifier is too big for the small 3x3 grow tent. Or if the rise and fall of humidity every 2 min like this is ok?
Temp is around 73deg F as the humidifier gives off heat.
Are these temp's and humidity % ok? - Dehumidifier jumps between 41% and 60%
This is my first grow and I am finally on the drying stage. I am not sure if this is normal for a dehumidifier or if mine is not operating properly. I have a 50gal Danby and I have to set it at 45% in order for it to stay at an average of 50. It seems kick on 15% over the humidistat setting and...www.thcfarmer.com

And about harvest time, I'd say part is fact and part is preference.
Fact is an optimal timeframe of about 10 days ideal for harvesting.
But ideal comes down to preference, most people i know harvest relatively early, as they dont want an Indica knockout effect or do want a Sativa to be energetic.
Amber trichomes means part of the THC slowly starts degrading into CBN, not CBD as i still read too often.
CBN has a more narcotic effect, even in small amounts, hence the knockout (depending on the genetics of the variety of course).
In Marocco plants are traditionally dried on rooftops, in the sun. That also increases CBN. Most is used for hash, and the result can be incredibly delicious. So should we also dry plants in the sun ? Again, it depends on what you want, preference. I might try a branch some day, experimenting is a good thing.
And anybody who likes washing buds should just do it, it does make me curious, i might actually try washing some buds.
