I'm also trying to keep them as short as possible, that's why I wanted to know how tall yours are as you're a couple or weeks ahead of me. Mine are now 14" and 10" (smaller due to being FIM'ed) however I think the little one might be a male!! Oh well I guess I can always make cannabutter :hump:. Keep it up!

ps. might put some pics up later in my profile, however that works lol
Not as big as I thought they're 15 and 10 inches! So I expect yours won't get bigger! They absolutely reak of dank now and are covered in resin, pistils all turning now :)

We're all in this together. It's good to see you've reached the point where all that hard work pays off.

no problem man, im just here to spread the knowledge and experiences that ive been through and pass that on to others.ive made many of mistakes and you all can learn from that :) then we'll grow so much weed that they will have to let it be free. im a big supporter of legalization nationwide and wishing good luck to the people in the states where its still illegal and becoming legal soon.we all have to do our part to fight the demonization of our beloved plant, and the growers are the ones behind the scenes making it all possible.

It's the high you're aiming at. I think the more amber the better for a couch lock high!
You could also leave the first to have some more ambers and the second one with a few and compare the smoke and high. That's gonna be a nice comparison!

About the weight: It's better not to touch the buds at all if possible when harvesting, until they're dry. Trichs and pistils tend to fall off your buds when wet!

Cheers bro!!

For what it's worth, color of trichromes has nothing to do with the type of high. Amber trichrome means thc degradation. If you want a couch lock type high, grow an indica dominant. If you want more of a uplifting head high grow a sativa dominant.

How fast or slow a plant turns, is different and depends on all kinds of factors.

So, is all that amber-cloudy trichromes talk just a lie?
Of course Indica-Sativa is a major factor but talking with experienced growers I have been told what I said before.

Anyway, they could all be wrong, no need to argue about something!

Cheers!

If what you heard or were told was that trichrome color dictates the type of high, then yes. All color tells you is how "ripe" the thc is in those lovely little things.

Clear = precursor
Milky = ripe THC
Amber = degraded THC

No arguing here mate, just friendly discussion. :joint:
