Trichome Maturity
Catovastarted grow question 3 years ago
Is trichome development individual to each plant or can you determine how long it takes for trichomes to mature from cloudy to amber? I’m trying to get 20% amber but not sure how many weeks I have left. First plant is cheme de la cheme by mephisto and second is skunk #1 freebie.

Yes plants will mature at different times if they are different strains and if they are widely different phenotypes.
Plants will also mature on the top most growth first and then work its way down the plant. That's why a lot of growers like to use the SCROG method to keep an even canopy vs a Christmas tree like effect of how cannabis naturally grows. that's why LST is very useful in autos.
But your harvest time will be dependant on trichome maturity.
10-30% amber is best. I am for 10%.
As for time left till that happens, I would like to guess 2 weeks.
Its hard to guess as you just need to check every other day.
Best of Luck and Happy Growing!

They will turn amber eventually. One plant might take a little longer than other plants, since no plant is indentical. From what I can see the trichromes are turning cloudy, so just a little more patience.

Yeah it’s always a bit different from plant to plant.. some strains just don’t amber much.
But it’s somewhat predictable with some variation in there.. you’re looking pretty good and cloudy and you should begin to see some Ambers pop up more and more, I’d say you’ll be harvesting in 2 weeks give or take. Autos are weird tho and I’m not good at guessing them maturing as much.. skunk looks about ready in your diary pics tho.

opinion on bud maturity ?About 6 weeks since flip from flower and wanted to know if the orange/browning of the white pistils means that the bud has already reached its max size and will only ripen ,but bud sizes look pretty small to me does this mean yield will be low ? or am i just overthinking.

Possible runt?How old do ya'll think this plant is? Reason I ask is because it's an autoflower and it already has pistils growing. I think it may be yet another runt. I'm starting to get really pissed off.. I haven't done anything to stress it.
