IN general, what is more potent, a big Kong of a Cola or a bunch of little Nuggs??
You need at least 30x to check the calyx trichomes for color, cheap scopes 60-100x are around $20. Clear and cloudy is too soon, the trichs should be getting some whiskey colors when ripe.
All depends on strain. My trichs are usually cloudy when ripe. In these strains, amber means its already losing potency. Some plants rot and are worthless by time you see amber.You need at least 30x to check the calyx trichomes for color, cheap scopes 60-100x are around $20.

True that, the main point is to check trichs on flowers not sugar leaves and wait til they get cloudy not clear.All depends on strain. My trichs are usually cloudy when ripe. In these strains, amber means its already losing potency. Some plants rot and are worthless by time you see amber.
How do you check the trichs in the center of the 40g top?True that, the main point is to check trichs on flowers not sugar leaves and wait til they get cloudy not clear.
dont know, but it might be sexual harassment by the HR standards to molest your ladies like that!How do you check the trichs in the center of the 40g top?
Exactly my thoughts... The largest cola’s I’ve ever grown weren’t from stripped bare “lollipop’d“ plants...Cool. I just watched Mr Cannucks Grow's latest video, and it seems like he rapes his plants by striping the leaves off throughout the life cycle leaving the plants constantly bare. And at the end of harvest, the plants only yielded Nuggs.. I have to think that more leaves equals more power to the plant.. But what do I know??
My first grow is coming to the end, and I have some big ass Budz... I defoliated at times, but not near the level he does..
