If you're after a more sedative stone, make certain all trichomes are at LEAST cloudy, with a significant portion amber (20%), and do a proper cure on your herb.
Also, avoid heady sativas. When you say 'too potent' I hear ya; when I smoke strong staivas that give me that crazy buzz/high my anxiety rears its ugly head too, but the body stone ones that don't feel like 'yo man I'm so hiiiiiiigh' until I try to stand up are more soothing as a rule.
If you harvest with such a high percentage of clear trichs you are setting up for a buzzy high and losing yield- a lot of bulk is put on in the last 3 weeks of flower and if you are running a standard indoor 8 week strain you won't see that if you chop now.
From what you say about the hairs, I estimate you have a solid 2 weeks or more left before harvest.
