Do trichomes of CBD plants change color?

Do trichomes of CBD strains also change color to amber at the end of flowering? It is the first time I grow a CBD strain (RQS Joanne's CBD). For THC strains I check for amber trichomes to time harvest just right. But is this the same for CBD cannabis?

Depending on strain, yes. More amber trichomes = more CBD and CBN.

Yes trichomes are trichomes. No difference on how they mature.

Hey bud There is no difference between cbd and thc strains when harvesting. The trichomes says when they are ready and reached their full potential. Hope it helped
