Hi to everyone! I am new to the forum and i am impressed by it! I hope that i will find answers for my problem.
I have started 3 Easy Ryders and 3 Cream Caramels Auto. This is balcony grow with 6-7 hours direct sunlight. They are in 10 Ltr pot - organic soil, worm cast and perlite. They emerged from soil on the first of July. In the beginning of the flowering they were heavily pollinated by some male in the neighborhood. Till now 62 days passed. According to the breeder's information, Easy Ryders are supposed to finish 9 weeks from seeds and Cream Caramels - 8 weeks from seed. By now they are 25-30'' high and are looking good - dark green leafs, brown\reddish pistils and a very few new. I have sampled some buds on 50, 55 and 60 day. With a friend of mine we tested them and guess what - no kind of buzz or high for both of us! I am quite worried because i think that i am supposed to be in the peak potency period. I am posting some pictures of the sampled buds and as i could see almost all of the trichomes are milky - does it mean that i am near the peak potency? Please take a look at those pictures and share opinion what is going on, what i am doing wrong?

Excuse me for my grammar and language, but English is not my native language. Any help will be highly appreciated!

I think you did everything right on your part. Its an auto and the Ruderalis pheno can express itself more than you'd want and it gives a weaker high. Either grow out more or join the big boys club and grow F1 Indica Hybrids.

Thank you for your quick reply. So, do you think i should wait for another week or two to let most of the trichomes become amber in the sake of potency or i should chop them right now?

If they look, feel, and smell done go ahead. They look done to me but it's always hard to tell just by a picture. Your buds already look swollen and I didn't see any white hairs. I doubt a week will make a big difference.

Thank you again Vindicated! I just could not believe that there was no buzz at all and my inner voice tells me that they could not become more matured. The smell is almost none - i mean that literally there is no smell. However, when i touch them there is smell on my fingers. It was supposed to be a heavy and heady high, but as you said -Ruderials genes took control over them. I will give them day or two and will chop them. Thanks again!

I've grown plenty of Easyryders and liked the results. All grown on my balcony as well. If I recall, they do take a bit longer than what the breeder recommends. Closer to 70 days. Despite that, you should definitely be feeling something from what you've sampled. Not sure why you didn't. By the way, there are some forums/threads on here that are devoted to Autoflowers that you might get some more info/advice from. Best of luck.

easy ryder is super easy to grow but like the above poster said its better to let them go 70 days as opposed to the recommended 63. It was better from my experience anyway..

You want the tricomes to be about 30% amber with some transparancy. nevermind the people doubting the highs of the autos. this is a silly question, are you curing properly, or just trying to smoke right away?

Thank you all for the replies! I have dried the sampled buds at room temperature - in a dark place for 24 hours and than behind my tv (it generates some heat) for another 12 hours. They looked well dried.
I have decided to wait until 30-40% amber. Right now i am monitoring them closely, but there is no change - almost all of them are milky with little to none transparent and amber.
