Whats up with all the amber? I'm only 39 days into flowering.

This is a Blue Dream...breeder says 70 days.

The tricomes on a leaf will mature first. The top of the plant will also.

Take the whole plant into account. Has it come close to estimated flower time? Wait for the pistils (hairs) to change color. Wait for the pistils to lay flat and start to recced into the calyx. Watch for calyx to swell.

Then check tricomes from calyx only. From several spots on the plant.

If there is amber and the plant doesn't look done, its not.

Some strains also show early amber.

That still has a ways to go.

This is a done bud.

Damage and uv can both also cause amber tricomes.
