Went down to the tent to water today and noticed a lot of amber pistils retreating back into the bud, so I decided to whip out the microscope for a peak at the trichomes. I see a lot of clear but surprised at a fair amount of cloudy and some amber. She’s a fruity pebbles photo, 6.5 weeks in flower, Jacks321 and adding silica. Just water and silica today as runoff ppm were creeping up a touch. So, if she was your plant, when do you think you’d chop? I’m not and she’s not ready yet, just wondering how long you’d wait for a light couchlock high.

Was that the top main cola that you took the trichome pictures from?
I took them from about 6 different colas and I forgot to label which one is which 
Looking good. Still alot of clear trichomes. Do you have pictures of the whole plant and some bud pictures
The bud pics are about a week ago, and that’s the best whole plant pic I have and it’s a couple weeks old.

Wow nice plant. You want nearly all those white hairs to turn brown and recede back into the calyx’s then start checking trichomes… you’re close but i personally would give it at least another week or two.

I was thinking probably at least 2 weeks…I’m thrown off by how its moving along faster than my last.

Looking good, your almost there … Consider starting to flush for 7-10 days if your going to, then re-evaluate… Should be pretty well done by then

Id personally wait a week and check again. Some amber looking trichomes could be the result of light refecting off the pistils. I made that mistake of pulling too early one time and im still recovering

That’s what I’m thinking too! I’ve been the victim of an early chop and a huge racing trip lol
