It looks like you can ride where you are for a couple weeks. In the next 3 or 4 weeks, you’ll want to start checking the trichomes heads. Looks good!

Have you taken a deeper look with a loop or a scope at your trichs? There’s your answer.

You’re gonna want to order a scope to check trichs with. Amaz has small scopes for under $20 and phone app models for $30. I have both and use each one . The phone model takes great pics but you have to cut a piece off plant to use it……

What’s the name of the app? That would be great if I didn’t have to go buy one

If budget is tight the loupe is fine. You just want to be able to see inside the bracts (the stuff that makes a nug a nug) and not on the leaves. Look for the change from milky to amber. Looking good so far. Just keep checking back in here if you’re unsure.

I hear you bud. Be patient and by all means check back here with all your questions.


When checking the trichromes, look deep into the bud and not just the glitter you’ll see on the sugar leaves as they will turn color sooner.

Same plant at 9 weeks.

Heres a good guide on harvesting. The seed site is full of info and learning.
