Amber on sugar leaves is a tad premature. Amber on calyx (buds) is what u want

I use Blue Labs. What’s cool is the hydro shops will calibrate and clean them for free. It’s part of. Blue Labs contract with the store! I clean and calibrate my own, but it shows good customer service.

The base of the trichomes can be red, blue, purple or even pink. My last grow had this:
DJBB2X (the DJBB is from a DJ Short’s Blue Berry strain):
And this was my Purple Punch:
Here is a good article on why some plants are purple. The plant has to have the genetic disposition to turn purple. If it doesn’t, you can’t force or stress it to turn purple.

How often do you usually have to recalibrate it - I read the instructions and didn’t see it anywhere, and is there a way to tell?
