once trichomes turn amber they are past their peak levels.

I am trying to harvest just as some trichomes turn amber...So, clear to mostly cloudy is my vote.

that choice wasn't up top
clear-no thc, potential for thc, just an empty vessel, pretty much...

cloudy-thc, young and vibrant
a combination of clear and cloudy will give you more of an up high...I prefer Indica's this way, since they have more medicinal tendencie's and more potential for couchlock/body stone...Harvesting earlier gives me a sweeter high (my preference).

amber trichome's are past their prime, but the rest of the plant is at it's most potent state; For a short period of time. the thc is degrading at this point.

so a combination of clear/cloudy/amber trichome's is what most experienced growers shoot for. It is all a matter of preference though.

Just remember the high the concentration of clear/cloudy/barely amber is more of an up high (strains vary this conclusion, somewhat)

with a higher concentration of cloudy/amber is going to be more dank and painrelieving/for sleep (especially in Indica's). choose a Strong Sativa and flower it to Full potential (get stupid)

later; And; In the words of the Immortal Donnie Baker "I gotta GO!" lw

My experiences:

First, I have the book that has those photos, too.

Now, I have harvested the first time when they were 95% clear and 5% cloudy (Nirvana's Northern Lights), and the second time when all the trichromes were clear (Nirvana's Chrystal- had to chop her early out of security concerns).

In the second harvest, I feel like the plant doesn't quite have the potency like the first one did. Both had "up" highs, like I was shooting for. Therefore, I have concluded that you definitely want some cloudy. How much, I'm not sure how much cloudy is enough. My theory is at least 75% clear/25% cloudy. If you see amber trichromes, it's DEFINITELY time to harvest, since seeing amber trichromes will result in couchlock, which I try to avoid.

Ultimately, it is up to you: The more amber trichromes you get, the more of a narcotic stone you get. If you have mostly clear and cloudy, you'll get a good up high with possibly some narcotic effect. If you get all clear, you'll have a complete up high, but with reduced potency.
