I usually have hairs start to turn color during flowering. Far before harvest and curing. When the hairs start to change color, I start looking at ttichomes to decide the right time to harvest.

Yes, unless you chop a month + early.

If you harvested while the pistils were still white, they would probably be brown by the next day.

Yeah ive had plants where the trics where cloudy/amber and most the pistils where amber but a had a few white ones due to foxtailing, and when dried/cured they must of turned amber as well because i dont recall seeing any white pistils in the finished bud.

But ideally your pistils shouldnt be white after harvest.

Like you mentioned........theirs usually a few white hairs left before harvest.....but drying and curing sorts them out.........

Sounds like you cut early. When most of the hairs have turned color start watching. The pistols (hairs) will thin a little and kind of lay down or fall over. The calyxes will be swelling. You should be watching tricomes during this period. The hairs will mostly look like they receeded into the calyx.

I concur.......

Not to worry. My pistils continue to turn from white to brown after the plant is harvested.
