Hello guys,

i am not sure if trichs on my top buds are amber and rdy for harvest, can you please share your opinion? and if they are amber, should i cut my whole plant if my lower buds arent amber yet. I am asking because i fear that my top buds will get old before my lower will be done.

Top bud:295292351_555773066287416_1475130551916078349_n.jpg
Lower bud: 295591755_765393551470722_1340339284443643147_n.jpg

thx for any advice

Bro, you need to zoom in on the trichome bulbs to see the clear, cloudy, amber stages. A jeweler's loupe will work fine, but some people use digital microscopes or if you have a newer smartphone with a telephoto lens, you can snap a close-up and zoom in on the pic.

The trichomes only tell part of the story. When there's no more white pistils, and the plant doesn't seem to be growing anymore, then start looking at the trichs.
Yeah i know, but pistils on my top buds are completely brow, but mostly white on bottom buds so idk if i should cut some parts of my plant. I think that would fuck her hard.

You can harvest in a couple of stages. You're outdoors? Check this out:

You got any whole plant pics?
Yep, she looks pretty devastated. She is old and aphids aren't exactly helping her either. I spray her with neem, but some aphids will stay anyway. and now i am worry that she will get mold. I probably flush her and cut her down.
