Best Trichome color for Marijuana for Sleeping

[avillax]

Hi, I'm growing some Indica strains to help me sleep, one of them is Ortega Indica. If getting me sleep is what I want should I harvest when most trichomes are amber?

Its the terpenes my friend.Not the color of the trichomes.

You have an indica, let it properly swell and ripen. Harvesting a phenotype your not familiar with shouldn't be judged by late trich colors imo. They could be any color even before it starts truly degrading which can easily mislead a new grower.

Just take a peek what done "looks like", you can almost count individual calyx's
