When counting the amber trichomes for harvest do you count ones that have just amber caps or do you wait till the whole stem turns amber as well?

^ +1 to that. It's impossible. I repeat. It is IMPOSSIBLE to have every trichome be the came. You will have that plant growing forever. You harvest when 90% of the ones you see are cloudy. You will still have clear, you will have some amber. Amber trichomes are not what you want. There is SO much misinformation about that. So many believe amber trichomes means a body high. No, CBD, CBN have been proven to not produce a high rather a nauseating feeling.

Thank you! I wish more people would understand that and not argue against it. Misinformation is a plague to the growing community.
