Sativa

I checked the leaves today, I would say some just started to get amber well most are still clear or cloudy.

where am I at, how much longer till I should cut them down?

im no expert but im sure i read u want 30-40% cloudy 4 optimum smoke, darker is a heavier stone but dont last as long, it varies but im sure some1 with more knoledge than me can give a better answer.

Well it all depends on what kind of stone you are after.

To get an up, energy high, you will want to harvest when the trichs are 50% cloudy, 50% clear.

To get a couchlock, narcotic high, you want to harvest when the trichs are 50% cloudy, 50% amber.

I harvest when my trichs are about 85% cloudy, 15% amber. That gives me a mix of the 2. This all an approximation, not exact numbers. Hope this helps, peace

You will know when...trust me....

The last week or even the last few days, the clear trcihs will show the THC bursting thrugh the membranes and filling the trich heads with white color. Almost a pure white cloud look.

The clear trichs arent yet filled with the most THC. Once the plant has produced enuff, the membranes will split and the THC will flood the mushroom head.

It will become stark white and I would want to wait until all of them or most all of them are at least white.

Just my preferences.

You harvest on the majority of what color you choose.

The plant with hardly any trichs just isnt ready yet.

They will come....probably in a hurry once it starts.
