Here's some pics from last night when the lights went out (its easier to get pics then with my bad camera phone). This would be day 47 of flowering.
Im using a telescope viewer backwards to see the trichomes, which isnt the best way i know, but i can still see them better than the naked eye. Most of the trichomes are solid white or clear from what i can tell... i can't, for the life of me, find a browing trichome, though a lot of hairs are orange now.
I'll do another week of nutes starting today, then hopefully i see some brown trichomes and will start flushing for a week or so.
should have a 400 dollar camera in my possession saturday for as long as i need it.
another note: ive been having trouble keeping the ph up in this late flowering stage. It drinks a few gallons, then the water ph is too low, so ive tried topping with ph corrected water and it goes right back down. ive tried emptying the tank, adding tap water and using ph up on the whole tank and it still goes down. And from what i understand, a higher ph is preferable in this stage. The ph keeps dropping to about 5-5.5 and i can't control it. why now?
