What's up guys? So I asked this question on a thread in the CFL grow section but haven't gotten response yet. So I am at about 9.5 weeks of flower, but I am not seeing any amber trichomes on the buds. I want to see if I should go ahead and change to flush for the next 2 weeks to get the timing right. There are plenty of amber, and even blood red ones on the leaves, but they are all still milky or clear on the buds. I read in one thread that this sometimes happens with white strains. Is that why they are called white strains? Anyway, if there is anyone who has experience with this strain or ny other that might have this characteristic, I would love to here from you!

Here is the link to my original thread if you re intrested in seeing the progress of my baby (lots of pictures. They grow up so fast! :mrgreen:) thanks for your replies!

flush now, once the majority of the trichs are milky and you see a slight hint of any of them on the buds turning amber chop!

patience is your answer. if your trics are white they are almost ready to go amber (you got a week window if you got indica) if u got clear trics, just keep growing

thanks for the replies! I had read somewhere (can't remember what forum now) that a grower didn't see amber AT ALL. I guess he was just as excited to harvest as I am. Anyway, I did have a little test last night. Just snipped off one of the lower popcorn buds (probably less than half a gram dry) and threw it in my Arizer Extreme (name drop. Love my vape). MAN ALIVE I was high! Great head rush from this strain. After about 10 min the body kicked in. I can't imagine what this will do to me once fully ripe, dried and cured! Super stoked! Check out the pictures of the grow at the link in the OP. I love hearing from other growers!
