What stage are my trichromes in? (see diary for photo's)

Pistils are mainly brown, but judging from my photo's I'd say the trichromes are still transparent to maybe slightly milky? The pictures from my phone aren't perfectly sharp though, and it's my first growth as well, so I'm not really sure. Could anyone with a trained eye tell?

Its hard to tell without a clear close up picture but they look slightly milky. When trichomes are entering the "harvest window" they look like plastic, clear trichomes look more like glass. So based on what I see id say your entering that harvest period. If they're entering that window you could be harvesting in a week or two. Don't forget to flush roots! 😉 You could get a cheap Jeweler’s loupes on amazon and that would help you out. https://www.growweedeasy.com/harvest#trichome-method If you haven't already, I recommend this harvest tutorial. Its a bit of a read but its worth it. Skip to the jeweler’s loupe method to see a good example of trichomes ready for harvest also when to harvest for what effects you want. Good luck grower! 👊

you need a jeweler's loup or currency magnifier thinga-ma-doo... focus on trichomes projecting from swollen bracts.

You got some milky but still alot of clear. You wanna look @ the tips of the trichomes. I usually aim for 20% amber 60% cloudy 20% clear.
