ou'll always get some new trichs. 50% cloudy/50% amber is good for me & most but the more amber the trichs get, the more couch lock you'll get from the smoke. Amber is best for sleep and cloudy for when you're awake to energize you.

i know, thats what i thought chi! idk, its like they havent changed at all in a week.... but someone sayed that thc degrades more during drying and curing.. is that true? or proven? i still plan on harvesting thurs or friday, cuz the soil is still a lil moist, but would it not be good to harvest if there are still a few white hairs? theyre just poppin up where the buds are dreadlockin... id say over 80% of the hairs are amber. how much more growth will i get flushing, and would it make that much of a difference in how potent it is?

I love #5 from the first batch of pics.. Great Job! My first grow was bagseed (as most usually are I guess) and she turned out stupendous! My brother nicknamed the mystery bud 'Monster Munch'. Whatever it was would be great for chemo patients.. crazy ravenous hunger.. too bad I don't know what it really was..

Sorry.. ramblin..

Chop when your ready, my friend. You know her better than anybody..:peace:

got another question... being as small as my plant is.. do you think it would be worth it to try to make hash out of the trimmings??

wait another week and the flavor and smell will be stronger. and it looks like the ph is just alittle of. the more amber the better, atleast 50% amber.

nah, im a quick learner.. id rather do it when its not gonna be a waste of my time.. thanx for the reply tho! and yea i just tested the run-off 2 days ago and the ph was at 6.. it should be around 6.5-7.0 right?? so n e way, i watered with ph'd water and figured since im gonna be harvesting soon, i wouldnt worry about it too much... sound good to you?

u can goto radioshack and pick up a 30x microscope for under 15-20 bucks, then look that the trichomes..
Depending on how u like ur weed
stage 1- all clear = not ready to harvest
stage 2- mostly milky,some amber = cerebral high (Peak THC Content)
stage 3- Mostly amber,some milky = more of a heavy high/body buzz
just pick when ur bud is at ur preference..

I personally like the upper high, (stage 2 doesn't make me glue myself to the couch.)

If your gonna sell it, then i would wait till stage 3, cause the buds will weigh more.

not sellin it.. just smokin it... and i believe there are pics of my trichs earlier in the thread.. check em out!! my lower buds are probly in the 20% amber area.... and i found out the reason i was getting so many milky trichs still was because i was clipping tiny pieces off the new growth like an idiot.. so n e way ill be postin pics of the trics later too.. just dont feel like fuckin w/ it right now.. : ) thanx for checkin out my pics everyone!!

Hey socomp

It's been a week exactly since the first batch of pics right? She look like she is maturing nicely. A lot more pistils have browned, but maybe a few more days? This looks some good bud and it'll surely be worth the wait :weed:
