Once iv cut my plant will the trichomes stop changing colour?.. And i have clear trichomes now.. Is that ok to be smoked now for a lesser buzzy weed??
 
Hey man,

Yeah you can get a good high from clear trichomes, but better if they get milky. If you decided to "cure" your buds properly, then in this case the trichomes will continue to mature, some will get amber like, some milky. I cut mine down when 50 get amber, and I always cure. After the cure some are 75-85% amber.

sounds like you like to get propa put in ur couch infront of the tv and console. . Thanx on the advise..
 
For me its more about that thick, deep, rich, and sweet smoke I get as a result of curing. I think proper weed is weed that is flushed very well, cut down at 40-50% amber, dried and cured properly. If you can enjoy what your smoking then you can enjoy your buzz that much better.

Yeah man that's the best way to do it! You are absolutely on the right track, try harvesting now and again in the later stages, make sure you mark down the samples, take notes and experiment! This is what growing is all about! You'll see what works best for you and that's the whole point.

I wouldn't harvest until they're at least 80% milky otherwise you're going to wind up with very low quality bud. Whats the point of growing it if you just wind up with crap? :lol: Wait the extra week or so and you'll get bud that has a great "uppy" head high :bigjoint:
