If I can only have one kind of weed around I go for about 10% amber. Ideally though like to have some that has been harvested at several different stages. I rather enjoy some that is all cloudy, and even some that has a little clear. If nothing else, for a change. Sometimes I feel I kinda get stuck in a rut of a certain kind of weed, and I almost fail to get stoned no matter how much I smoke. Changing it up a bit seems to help a bunch. The more amber it is the more it tends to "stone" me. duh, I know, but a couple hours after smoking some amber AK-47 it's time for me to shut down. I can force myself to keep going but it's hard. For wake and bakes, or just wanting a cleaner, crisper, more alert high, I like to harvest some of my weed before amber trichomes show up.

It may be best though if you don't harvest any one grow in stages, due to the possibility of causing stress to the plant and reducing yields or causing hermaphroditus. This could be very likely in some varieties and not so common in others. Just to be safe it would probably be better if you could do one grow cloudy and another with some amber. And just for fun, why not one mostly clear and one mostly amber. Don't let people tell you that you won't get stoned with cloudy or even clear. There are just different chemicals in the resin and the high is just different. Keep in mind though I'm only talking about what I have experienced, and I've grown mostly indica over the years. Try for yourself and see what you like. You may be interested in this thread: http://boards.cannabis.com/basic-gro...rts-plant.html
Opie Yutts Reviewed by Opie Yutts on . Harvesting an Indica early... thoughts or experiences? I only have experience smoking Sativas, so I grew some Indica this year to try it out. I have two female Afghans that should be ready in a month or so. I'm wondering what your thoughts are on chopping some of the buds when they are totally cloudy (no amber). I'm thinking of doing this so that I could have some buds that have more of the Sativa "energetic" high I"m used to. Then I could harvest the rest at 50% amber or 80% amber or so (which I'm told will give me the Indica "body" or Rating: 5
