Their called stigmas and I've never once seen trics be ready and stigmas not already ambered and shriveled. But idk, maybe I'm doing it wrong? The trics are what its all about. When their done, the plants done.
If you’re going to correct someone. THEY’RE called stigmas but also referred to on here as pistils. Yes you are doing it wrong that’s why people are laughing at your post.
plant completeness is a bunch of steps. Just like cutting open the steak. It’s the final step in checking. You don’t check until you think the steak is done. Same thing applies here. When most of the pistils have turned color and receded into the swollen calyx that’s a sign that it’s ready. (Like the outside of the steak appearing cooked) THEN you can check trichomes once you’re pistils (stigmas) are ready.
No one wants a raw steak but the chef isn’t cutting the steak until the rest of the signs of it being done are there. You’re skipping all the other steps and just checking trichomes.
looking at the trichomes this early will only give false positives because people see amber on the leaves and want to chop.
