I'm on day calls of some autos and trichs are a combo of clear, cloudy and amber. If I want max THC should I harvest soon so more don't turn amber, or should I wait? Thanks.

Amber is degraded. Milky is peak, cloudy is close to peak and clear is just not ready yet. So aim for the largest percentage of milky with some cloudy a small amount of amber and clear.

Thats the problem. There's still plenty of clear to turn cloudy but theres already a good amount of amber. Guess I'll just have to make call.

Make sure you are looking at calyx trichomes and not sugar leaf.

But yeah, you will have to make the call. Autos can be difficult due to the ruderalis genes.

Well day 91. Probably going to chop the one plant in a few hours. It could maybe go a little longer but just decided it could no longer support its weight.
