Trichomes Milky on Day 36 of Flower

KodamaFarmastarted grow question 1mo ago

So today(Day 36 of Flower) i looked at the trichomes, because the pistills are going all orange allready. Then i saw that there are no transparent trichomes left. There only Milky and some amber ones, some may call it harvest day. Is this normal for week 6 of flower?

Ja das durchaus möglich, vor allem wenn du die Trichome ja kontrolliert hast und keine transparenten mehr da sind ist sie reif. Nach milchig werden sie ja amber und das bedeutet das THC in CBN umgewandelt wird. Wenn du lieber eine narkotische Wirkung willst dann kannst du noch etwas warten bis mehr amber werden. Aber wenn du ein richtiges high willst ist jetzt der richtige Zeitpunkt um zu ernte. Um ganz sicher zu gehen kontrollier auch die trichome weiter unten an der Pflanze und nicht nur auf den zuckerblätter dort werden sie schneller reif, sonder wirklich an den Blütenkelchen. Viele autoflower aber auch manche Photoperiodische Sorten haben eine relativ kurze Blüten Zeit. Und ich habe einige Sorten die schon nach Woche 8 bis 10 fertig waren. Viel erfolg und genieße deine Buds

Still looks like it has time. Other good input from the users answering about were to look at them on the plant.

Seeing only cloudy and some amber trichomes at Day 36 (Week 6 of flower) is unusual, but not impossible. It can happen due to: 1. Fast-flowering strain – Some Indica-dominant or autoflowering genetics finish in 6–7 weeks. 2. Environmental stress – Heat, light leaks, or root issues can cause early ripening. 3. False trichome readings – Make sure you're checking buds (not sugar leaves), in natural light, with proper magnification. --- 🎯 What To Do: If trichomes are mostly cloudy with 10–20% amber → You can harvest now for high potency and balanced effect. If you want a more relaxing effect → Wait 2–5 more days for more amber. Optional: Harvest a small test bud now to evaluate.

Hey Growmie, That’s definitely early for Day 36 of flower, but not completely unheard of. Some strains especially certain indicas or fast-finishing phenos can ripen quicker, and if you’re seeing all milky trichomes with some amber, it could be harvest time depending on the effect you’re after. If the pistils are mostly orange and the trichomes are where you want them, you could chop now but giving it a few more days might still help with density and terpene development. Sounds like you're super close either way.

You are looking at trichomes on a sugar leaf. Only looks at trichomes on the calyxes (the pods with hairs sticking out.) pistils, density, trichomes.. can use all three to stay consistent. Also, don't remove so many leaves in future. All you did was reduce yield. All those gaps in canopy.. made the light incredibly inefficient too. MAss defoliation is a bad idea. read the guides and articles on cocoforcannabis.com to avoid the most bro-science. they have a 'to defoliate or not..' article too.

All depends on the strain! Maybe she has most indica genetics or it's some type of EV (Early Version). I normally chop the plants when I see the trichomes exactly like yours but all depends on your preferences! If I were you I would search the genetic and see what is the average time for harvesting. Maybe you are just doing perfectly!! Hahaha
