Trichromes not turning amber at week 9 of flowering?

Hey guys I'm nearing the end of my cycle of some fast buds Green crack and blackberry, all my trichromes have turned cloudy but probably only about 10% amber I was due to start flushing today week 8 I want it as potent as possible so was hoping more would turn. Is it worth giving feed for a few more days? I'm in no rush so don't want to pull early but also don't want to over do her?

Don't worry about flushing. It's one of the biggest myths I've came across growing. The last few weeks are when the buds pack on the most weight, the plant needs food to do this. How much amber are you looking for? If your at 10% amber, I would chop. Your buds will continue to amber during the cure process.

amber trichomes are degrading. all kinds of resources could change your resulting ambers including age. some people like the effects of over ripe peaches too but not me. I snatch those girls up when all trichs are solid milky and right before they degrade. otherwise we get sleepy aye.
to each their own though. I like peaches a little harder than a little softer so....

This crap just won't stop LOL

True amber trics turn red when peaked, black when degrading

Non true amber will go from cloudy to brown

No where in the report that started this nonsense was the word amber ever used because the report was about hemp LOL

but the interweb sure has spread it ,,,, you can research it yourself if you think I'm wrong

or you can check the research I did here,,,,

one persons' amber, red, to dark to brown may be anothers' brown, red, to dark to amber perhaps
. its all subjective when reported by op. like this strain sucks, or that strain took me 5 months to get cloudy, must be a slow flower variety, or a shit strain....that kind of shit. we ll know to harvest at the milky stage for best results. but thts subjective, how milky is it, is it really milky at all lol

that link might help out @Dr. Who though
