When to harvest - Brown pistles vs. amber trichomes?

[garybug]

Hi all

Just a quickie..

I checked my sweetheart this morning, and about 1/3 to a 1/2 of the hairs have gone brown, buit my trichomes are still quite clear.

I have read that you should harvest when 2/3 of the hairs have gone brown / when the trichomes are amber.

If I leave it until all the pitsles 'die off' in order to get more cloudy / amber trichomes, am I doing the wrong thing, as I know that potency can deteriorate quickly?

Ta muchly, and many thanks in advance :thumbsup:
