I have three plants. All plants are 48 days into flowering. Almost 7 full weeks.
The left and back one are fine for now; but the one in the front right, I am starting to see amber trichomes. If had to give a ratio, I'd say 30% clear, 55% cloudy 15% amber. The hairs are all nearly brown It's nearly impossible for me to get a good picture of the trichomes.
Help me out RIU.

I guess it depends on where you take the sample. I took a sample from the top and got 30% clear, 55% cloudy 15% amber. The sample from the lower buds were completely clear.

I'm still planning on harvesting them all between June 9th and June 23rd (10-12 weeks).

Thanks for the impulse reminder. I've been checking these out for awhile. Couldn't resist. I need to harvest tomorrow, so I'll use my diy, or maybe whole plant hang and wait...

When i was at the hydro store buying some stuff. I saw this and was like I have to get it. The guy working at the store spent 5 minutes telling how much he loves his. He told me to freeze the trim to get the trichomes to fall off easier and then use the trim on the screen.

I love edibles and all. But personally I don't see the point in using your trim for a 2 day edibles high, I just want the kief so I can smoke it for months.

I would have made my own trim screen, but this was only 10 minutes away and for $40 dollars so why not?
