Trichome ripeness
TheGoods
started grow question 4y ago
How do these trichomes look? I see some amber, though am not sure whether they are just damaged trichome tops or actually amber. Thoughts?

looks like all milky , no clears, few ambers, the optimal potency (for me) , you're just about ready to chop as far as i can tell. Hope this helps growmie ! 🚀

If you have 98-99% brown pistils, your plant is ready. Once you get 100% brown pistils, THC breaks down into CBD and CBN quite quickly.

Getting there. If you haven't started flushing I would consider doing plain ph water for 7 to 10 days then I would be thinking of chopping

Bananas, WHAT DO I DO??????
I’m into my 6th week of flower My caramel strain has started shooting off what I believe to be nanners. I noticed a few days ago and have been plucking them but am noticing more coming out. I’m sure I’ve missed some but should I keep plucking and cross my fingers or just harvest?

Hello. I have a wedding cake strain 6 week Flo auto. Nice buds are starting to form but they've taken on a strange color, it looks like part of them is covered in black spots and some filaments are a bit purple. (The leaves are whitish, yellowish, silver) Any idea?

Are my top buds ready for harvesting
I have been growing my royal dwarf for over 8 weeks now. The trichomes on the top buds all look cloudy (no amber's yet) and I was wondering whether I could cut the top 4-5 buds? A lot of the pistils are still white but none of the trichomes are clear. Is it too early?

Determining Trichome Readiness: Advice on Equipment or Techniques
I absolutely suck at harvesting and using the mini 🔬to determine trichome readiness. I don't have a steady hand, and it takes me forever to see if it's clear, milky, or amber. I see a lot of people on here with some ridiculously amazing up close photos of even their trichomes.

Remove lower branches
Would it be beneficial to also remove these lower branches? It's my first grow so I'm not sure if this would be useful. I'm in about week 3-4 of flower, but don't know if this would create bigger buds on the main branches. Experienced growers help me out pls xp

Can you spray water on bananas while they're still on flowers (around weeks 5/6/7) ?
had a few plants herm around week 6 of flower. can i spray bananas with water FIRST (to kill pollen) then remove with tweezers? Worried about active pollen spilling. I've heard pull with tweezers and put in a cup of water. Don't want mold/mildew/etc. though!

Sorry to keep asking, but I’m just shocked how early these ladies seem to be ready to harvest. They have only been flowering for 6-7 wks. I just started flush this past week, are they really ready to chop? 48 hr dark? I’d rather not over ripen them if I should be putting them i

Ethos Genetics Indica Strains
Hi Budz. I recently recieved a Ethos Genetics Freebies FPOG. I'm amazed at the quality of the buds and the amount of trichomes it produces. I'm a fan of Indica Strains. Does anyone know of a pure Indica strain from Ethos Genetics? Their strains are complicated.
