i belive u want the trichs to get rusty brown for the couchlock high and cloudy white for the "head high" Yes but what I'm wondering is how long does it take for a milky trichome to turn amber. I want about 70% of trichs to be amber when I harvest but want to flush with water for 7 days before harvest.
If I want 70% amber, when do I start flushing for 7 days ... 40%, 50%, 60% ????

flushing has nothing to do with the trichomes turning amber...it's a time thing
2-3 weeks is a common time frame; for milky/cloudy trichomes turning to amber..(13 weeks flowering)

for me that means switching to water after week #13 flowering
25% amber will provide plenty of couchlock...& lots of cottonmouth..trust me.

my plants look like they are at the same stage as yours. i have been harvesting a couple of flowers to check on the differences during the stages of trich development. i might get two different highs from just one plant.

i see what your saying...its a little tricky.It would help to have a beeter pic of the buds not the leaves.I suggest you take a sample put it in the microwave on very low temp to dry.Smoke some and test the high.When your getting close to the high you want start your flush.By that time you should be dropping alot of dead leaves:rastasmoke:Show us what the whole plant looks like

Show us what the whole plant looks like the strain is Afghan Kush from WOS. I wanted something to help me with my backpain after work !

Well, I waited an extra 2 weeks and I don't know why but the trichs don't seem to be changing much and I have to harvest ASAP so I guess I will nob be abble to get that 70% amber that I was hoping for !!!!
I started the flush yesterday and will harvest in 6 days. I can't believe how little the trichs changed in the last 2 weeks so all I can do now is hope for the best !
See fresh pics :

Afghan Kush from WOS
for my uninformed old mind, please elaborate on the breeder? I gather this is a late in the day medication?

I flushed the plant last monday and plan on harvesting next monday for a total of 2 weeks with only water. I will post pics of trichs and buds but all pistil are now orange and this plant is going to do some SERIOUS damage if this strain is already a high producer of CBD ... a high concentration of amber trichome and a 48 hours in complete darkness before harvest should turn this lady into a wheelchair monster !
