Trichome ripeness
SilverSlapdickstarted grow question 4y ago
Just wondering what experienced growers think of my trichomes. These are mostly milky right? Should be able to chop in a week or two? (One pic + vid from each plant)

Hey there, they look mostly milky to my eyes as well. Maybe 30/70/0 ratio of clear, milky, and amber. Harvest time can be somewhat personal for the effects you are looking for. For me, I would wait for a scattering of amber, then harvest in a week after that. Something like 10/80/10. So probably a couple more weeks for you. The buds themselves are looking good, but still a lot of white pistils, which would also support waiting a few weeks. Goodluck on the harvest and happy growing! 👍🌱

Just wait until you see 10% amber ish... Then they're will be no transparent (or barely any) trichomes 80-90% cloudy/milky. The buds will be fatter, denser, and potentially smellier and stronger. Its always better to wait just that extra week or two. 👍🌱

What's going on with these Red/Purple Pistils?Out of 6 female plants that I have personally seen develop, this is the only one with Red/Purple pistils. To be clear, the first visible pistils were this colour, they didn't emerge white and then change. All the bud sites on this plant display the same colour. Genetics unknown.Week 11

How close do these look to ready? Video in diaryHow early did I cut these? I know they are at least on the early side of harvest ready if not a little bit before ready, but the top of the colas definitely have a good bit of amber trichomes and I was dealing with a heat issue effecting the top buds so I cut a few to test.5y ago

Will Saturday be too late to harvest?I planned on harvesting this plant on Saturday(2/15)... this is my first grow. Most trichomes appear cloudy to me and I also see quite a bit of amber and purple, a few clear. The purple looks almost clear upon first glance. Is Saturday too late? Pls ignore cat hair in pic 😅Buds. Other

Roughly about week 3 of flower. Overall 8 weeks of growth and I always considered my plants the same in age as I grew them together. Now that we are deeper into flower the difference in the flower is apparent. Is this an age difference or just fenotype/strain
