But I do disagree that harvesting at different times is the correct way to achieve different effects from your medicine...or whatever you choose call it.

The strain should be the determining factor in the effects of the drug. The trichomes will simply tell you when you have reached a particular strains maximum potential and waiting longer just results in lost potential. At least in terms of THC.

[FONT=&quot]So now you are saying that a magnifier is essential to determine the point at which a plant has achieved maximum potency in terms of THC?

Well then that would be a pretty good reason to have one, would it not.

[/FONT] To establish when a plant is ready for cropping one goes by the appearance.

All of my pistils are brown. I haven't had a new pistil in weeks, the pistils are not receded a lot from the calyx swell. I am at 9 weeks since flip to 12/12. There is maybe 5-10% amber trichromes. Should I still keep going?

If your calxys are swolen and have been for a couple weeks and your pistils are almost all dried and your trichomes are at least 85% milky and you haven't seen any develpopement for a week, I wouild say chop, chop, chop.

Post up a couple pics.
