rhodes68answered grow question 5 years ago Get a jewelers loop, 10 bucks or so 15-30x minimum, its the only way to know for sure where you stand, everything else is guessing.
Look at the tricone a LOT so you can begin to learn their structure and colors.
When to take the plant is subjective, the effects will change based on when you harvest.
All a milky white color with mushroom heads will do though it is VERY easy to miss the clear tricones.
I wait until I begin to see some amber (very little unless I am growing some sleepy time stuff anyway) then its done IMO.
Get loop and study them, it will pay off.
