Correct a microscope (Radio Shack has pocket microscopes for a few dollars).Quote:

The white hairs changing to red / amber will happen as the plant gets closer to being ready for harvest. You can try to harvest by red / amber hairs but checking the thrichomes with a microscope is the best way to get the final product you want.
Good Growing!
if ur hairs r goin amber then harvest i sya do it now!
N3OSS, that is a horrible idea, if you harvest as soon as you see amber hairs, your buds will most likely not be even close to full maturity, read a book and stop posting bad information
