Scientia Cannabis
I have a microscope that zooms between 60 and 100x. I used to go by this but now im relying one the best method... pick smoke, decide if you got blasted or not. The reason is my chemdawg #4 is 31 days and covered in cloudy trichs. Didn't get me high. And seriously for every 30 cloud's there's about one amber and 2 clears. So I suggest sampling to know if its stoney yet or not
Did you read the entire first post?
It clearly states that there are other factors important when determining 'peak harvest'.
Such as;
Calyx development, pistils and the general look of the plant.
You aren't seriously asking why a 31 day plant is not ready to be harvested based on the info you gave, are you?
This is why. It was hard but I got a pic through my microscope. Bottom line View attachment 2292095is you cannabinoid receptors are the only way to know for sure if yo shits dank.
There are a lot of clear trichomes in that image, I assume it's of the same underdeveloped 31 day plant you spoke of before?
I think you are misunderstanding the chemistry and the biology.
Cannabinoid receptors are in the brain, they are the ones which are activated when they come in contact with ligands, plant cannabinoids, endocannabinoids or synthetic cannabinoids.
The group called plant cannabinoids is the one which contains the well known cannabinoids such as; THC, CBD etc.
The thread says look at trichs under a microscope and pick if theyre cloudy. Id be misinformed by his "scientific facts" if I didn't know better than to take this as fact
I clearly state in the first post what factors contribute to determining peak harvest.
If you have not read through the entire post or not understood the entire post you are welcome to ask questions in a polite manner.
This is a sticky, it's meant to help people out it's not a discussion thread.
This has already been stated by roc, but I will reiterate.
If you want to have a discussion on the subject you can open up your own thread.
Thank you. I was actually hoping to talk to someone who knows what they're talking about. I disagree with this thread and I have provided photos of why. (Apparently unbelievable ones!) An unfinished bud that is ready by your standards. Why defend someone else's opinion so fiercely when all I've done is poke a hole in this theory. Calm your tits.
I'm sorry that you don't understand the chemistry and the biology that goes into Cannabis but this is not the thread in which to discuss how and why you are mistaken, repeatedly.
People have given you straight forward answers and you have failed to grasp the science, reason and logic behind their arguments.
If someone does not believe in logic, rationale or reason then what logical, rational and/or reasonable argument can one use to convince him otherwise?
Do you see what I mean? This is a futile exercise.
This whole discussion should have been over after the first time roc and hole, rather politely I might add, explained why you are mistaken.
You have poked no hole in any theory, period.
You have poked as much a hole in the science behind trichomes, the rationale, reasoning or logic used in the scientific arguments in this thread, as religious people have poked holes in evolution; which is to say none.
