Trichomes

My G13-HAZE is a Sativa dominate hybrid. Trichomes will be cloudy/30%Amber. Here's my question, how the heck do you know you have 30% with the hundreds or thousands of Trichomes ?

You'll be able to tell. I would think about harvesting when the majority are cloudy, with some ambers starting to come in, rather than waiting until 30%.

You bet

It's sort of like taking a sample of a massive population. Of course you can never sample each and every person of a huge population, but if you pick lots of people from the population you can get a pretty good general idea of what the whole is. Same goes for trichomes. Of course you can never see them all, but if you take enough samples from enough buds, a picture begins to emerge and in each sample you will begin to see a reoccuring pattern, whether it be that almost all the trichs you see are mostly clear with some cloudy, mostly cloudy with some clear, or whatever the situation may be. You just have to look at all of your buds, and guage what the reoccuring and dominant trichome color is.

Time to start counting.

You also might see a stray amber way before the rest. Those are just flukes.
