Bmollyanswered grow question a year ago Based on the photos you provided, it appears that the trichomes are predominantly clear and transparent. For a more potent and psychoactive effect, it's recommended to wait until the trichomes have a higher percentage of cloudy or milky appearance. Generally, when approximately 70-80% of the trichomes have turned cloudy or milky, and around 20-30% have turned amber, it indicates that the buds are at their peak in terms of both psychoactive potency and overall maturity. However, please keep in mind that these percentages are just guidelines, and personal preference may vary. It's always a good idea to closely examine the trichomes with a magnifying tool to make a more accurate judgment. Wishing you the best of luck with your harvest!
