Red hairs/Harvest
Don't worry about the red hairs, just check the trich's everyday (if you wish) and preferably from different places... The hand-held $12 radio shack microscopes are good for that...
Don't touch those fan leaves either!!! The plant is sucking up the energy it needs to complete its cycle, and pulling the leaves off takes away a lot of nutrients from the plant. If you are worried about light penetration, then just tie the leaves down/out of the way with some nylon string or something...
Do things according to what the PLANT tells you, not the seed/nutrient/lighting company. Who knows, maybe their seeds got mixed up and you actually have a sativa that takes 14 weeks to flower... not the case here, but possible.
Now is a good time to take like 3 samples... one sample when the trichs are all cloudy, second sample when its 10% amber, and another when its 40% amber for example. Label, dry, and cure these, so the next time you grow you will have an idea of the differences the trichome color has on your smoke.:jointsmile:
