The taste comes with the curing. Fresh picked and quick dry has a grass taste and smell.

Okay so it might not be to early to harvest it may just be because of the way I did it I just cut it and hung it up.then trimmed it up then smoked it it smells like straight chronic before I cut it so I don’t know lol @bruinsfan33

So when your checking your trichomes ,what are you looking for as far as how many amber trichomes are you looking for
They’re turning like a dark orange color @daz49 so I been just waiting for all or almost all to turn that way. I’m not 100% sure on what to look for/wait for.

The more amber the more couch lock as I understand it,i look for between 30-50% amber but if the more long term growers might want to pitch in, it’s a good conversation piece

What’s your understanding of the trichomes and what the colours are and what we should be looking for in your experience

Trichomes are tiny little translucid “mushroom” look alike… It’s where the essential of the cannabinoid are…
Clear trichomes have mostly CBGa , flavinoid and terpenoids in it, it’s the mother of all cannabinoïds and has no psychoactive effects. But great anti-inflamatory and anti-septic potential among other things.
Milky trichomes have THCa, CBDa for the principal and other minors cannabinoids and flavinoid and terpenoids among others things. Milky trichomes offers the peak in potency with a more clear head effects. It’s highly medicinal .
Amber trichomes have THCa, CBDa and CBNa and all the other things previously mention. What is interesting to know is that CBNa is the product of THCa degradation and it’s less potent then THCa and give more “couchlock” effects… It’s highly medicinal too.
So, depends on what kind of effects you’re searching for, you gone a harvest the degree of maturation that correspond.
That’s my comprehension of it…
Did I pass, @daz49, lol 
P.s. Trichomes and pistils are 2 different things @Stoner_Cody420 but related. Pistils are the long white hair (generaly white, depends on the phenotype) . Trichomes are those tiny little mushroom look alike that are ON the pistils and leaves buds. It takes a good magnifier, at least 30× , 60-100× is better to see them good.
The “a” at the end of THCa and other cannabinoids means acid and have no psychoactive effects until breaken by heat, unless it’s CBG, CBD or other minors cannabinoids.
Nice looking plants by the way
