Try Combs still milky and running out of time. It's November

[Tommyj]

Have an outdoor grow in Virginia.It is now early November and my tricomes are milky, but I don’t see any amber. Able to take them inside An unheated garage for the cooler evenings.But just wondering if I should harvest or wait a little bit.

Welcome to the community. If they have been out all summer growing know
mid November.Personally I would harvest. Good luck

[Storm]

I agree with Kelly. If cloudy and 90% hairs brown and receded you are in head stoned zone. Also some strains just refuse to amber. Welcome to the forum.

For your input, it’s nice to be among friends.

So should I cut the Fan leaves off when I first hang them or wait for them to dry out and then trim them off?

[kellydans]

Yes , take the big fan leafs on the wet trim and finish up with a dry trim. Shoot for a slow drying period 7 to 10 days if possible.

@Tommyj WELCOME…
You know judging Trichomes and just growing in general is subjective…Theres so many variables and its not a one size fits all…The first so many years I too got milky Trichs and Amber came…Now these were different strains in the years,But this year I had two different Photos that seemed to not want to amber up…I waited and waited …The Blueberry Muffin did first but now Im thinking a few weeks prior at just milky I should have pulled them…They smelled stronger then when I waited…Same for my Romulan It actually felt stickier and smelled more 2 weeks while waiting for Amber Trichs…Your buds look good to harvest now…Id pull them…
congrats on your grow…

@Storm

Also some strains just refuse to amber.

Thanks @Storm …You hit the nail on the head…Im a believer now…I think thats true these took forever like I said above…and I do remember reading about plants (Trichomes) being “over-ripe” .Im going to remember that for next season…Thanks!
