Well i had a plant show no signs of trichomes either when it was about 20 something days into florering, it was budding but my guess is it was to immature.

I say give it a few more days but if you know you baby went through some kind of stress but looks healthy not then i would wait a littlle longer.

Maybe post pics to show what she looks like now?

:jointsmile:

I looked at them just now with a magnifier and can see a few starting on the small leaf around the bud.. Not many at all tho.

Dam, I smoked some of my last crop at 4 weeks.( white russian ) lol and it was soaked in trichs.

Maybe these are just dirt seeds.

They don't start cranking out the trichs till about 5 to 6 weeks in flower and then you'll start seeing sugar. Sativa dominant strains tend to take longer to develop the trichs.
