WHITE WIDOW WHAT THE HECK!!

High All, hope everyones well! growing some ww and she's 73 days into flowering today and bursting with trichs:thumbsup: I've kept my temp around 73-76 degrees during lighting and no less then 59 during sleep, the problem is that the trichs are all mostly cloudy! very little amber!!:wtf: so she's obviously not done? or is she??


A friend told me he's gone 85 days on ww and the trichs never really amberd up, said the trichs looked about the same at 85 days as they did at 70:( there was a little more amber but not much! said it looked about like what my looks now, and that he wasn't able to get the heat up in his space to where mine is and that may have affected his grows trichs and time length?

But when he harvested the plant it was "KILLER" smoke! TOP SHELF good! but it never did amber up the way he was expecting.

So am I waiting for something thats not going to happen anyway? do some strains not turn amber as much as others? I'm still very new to this!!!! thanks:beatdeadhorse:

Yeah.... looks like you got a bad pheno or something. You should pull it and send it to me for further study and in-depth marijuanalysis. :detective1:

:thumbsup:THANK YOU VERY MUCH! I would have never known that if it wasn't for your honesty and dedication to making this site something that can be valued and trusted!!;)

With that being said I will immediately cut this peace of s*#t down and send it right over too you!! thank you again sir!! LOL!!!!!!!!!:S5:

my last two WW harvests went 10 & 12 weeks. cloudy, with a few random amber. smoke is excellent.

you might need a second analysis, i recommend sending me half just for good measure:jointsmile: try the smoke test then you will truly know where it finishes. some people like an earlier harvest, but if you go too long it will diminish potency as it is slowly dieing off. id say your about ready depending on pheno.

so here I sit with my white widow at the 49th day. Published data says this is an 8 week flowering plant. I am watching my buds and see that the pistils are starting to turn and fully expect that somewhere in the next week or two I will reach the point where 50% of the pistils have turned to their classic reddish brown. 75% of the trichomes are now cloudy, the rest are clear with a few amber here and there. My question to all of you with the older plants is:
Why are you waiting??

I plan on harvesting when the buds appear to be ripe (50% or more of the pistils turned color) and fully expect that most of the trichomes will be cloudy by then with about 5% amber showing. Am I missing something here?
