Harvesting / TRICHOME help...

[whitenugz]

I'm confused between the cloudy and the clear. Any advice, tips, insight into getting the best cloudy trichomes? I'm going for the head high. Do different color lights help depict the differences? I have a 30x magnifier. This is the best picture i have to go off of and this will be my first harvest.

i like that head high as well, so i pick mine when i see a little amber and all cloudy. You should be able to see the trich's with your loupe, you have to look close but you should be able to make out if they are cloudy or clear. The cloudy ones usually look a little milky white, and the amber are easy to spot.

I'm saying that is the most beautiful thing I've seen but I wish he would put what they are next to them. I can tell amber easily but the cloudy, milky, clear is kinda hard to distinguish at the moment. Also, what are the full spectrum cfl's? I have 26w 6500k cfl's to start my veggies. Should I invest in these full spectrum cfls? I like websites with numbers.

6500k is full spectrum and will be great for veg :) for flower you may want to invest in some 2700ks to mix in for red light goodness :thumbsup:

The cloudy ones look like watery milk to me lol
