If you don’t have a growlog please answer these questions.
What strain are you growing? Is it Auto, Fem or Reg?
Are you growing Indoor or outdoor?
Are you using nutrients? Which ones? How much?

This answer from chat gpt is not so bad. For sure you need a Magnifying glass with 60x magnification to figure it out.

Chat gpt:

Certainly, here’s the translation of my last response:

Trichomes are tiny resin glands found on the flowers and leaves of cannabis plants that contain cannabinoids and terpenes. The harvest day and timing of the harvest can vary from grower to grower depending on the desired qualities of the end product, but trichomes are an important indicator of the harvest time.

Trichomes go through various stages of development and can have different appearances. The two most common types of trichomes that growers pay attention to are:

1. Clear Trichomes: In the early stage of the harvest, trichomes are often clear or milky. At this point, most cannabinoids are not fully developed, and the end product is likely to produce a more energetic, less heavy high.

2. Milky/Cloudy Trichomes: During the optimal harvest time, trichomes become milky or cloudy. This is an indication that cannabinoids, especially THC and CBD, have reached their peak. At this point, the end product typically exhibits a more balanced ratio of psychoactive and medicinal properties.

3. Amber Trichomes: When trichomes start to turn amber, it signals that cannabinoids, particularly THC, are degrading. This can lead to a heavier, sedative high. Some growers prefer this late harvest stage, while others prefer the milky trichome stage.

The optimal harvest time depends on your personal preferences and desired effects. If you prefer a more energetic, less sedative effect, you’re likely to harvest when the trichomes are milky. If you prefer a stronger, relaxing effect, you may wait until some trichomes turn amber.

It’s advisable to use a magnifying glass or loupe to closely observe the trichomes. The harvest timing can also depend on the strain, as some strains tend to be harvested earlier or later. Patience is key, and regularly checking the trichomes is important to determine the optimal harvest time.

Unfortunately it is not visible in your pictures.

I use this one. But it’s up to you.

I hope it helps

In general Bubba Kush needs 8 - 9 weeks in flower.

Thanks I ordered it today will arrive tomorrow., I brought back indoors one of the auto flower plant it recently started flowering. It looks very different from the other plant I have Must be green gelato auto I will attach pictures

I think we all want reach this quality of visual, photo, video, digital quality like this. But it’s still pretty expensive.

Where exaxtly do I look for the cloudy terps on the leaves or the top of rhe buds to see when the are cloudy i bought the microbrite plus. and irs hard to focus. And keep stoll enpugh to see them.

Damn that’s a good photo!

See the clear milky lollipops? When they amber in color

I bought a microscope and have been looking at the trichomes the still look very clear amd some milky white I read to wait until they are amber in color and if the white pistols are still pointing outwards then its isnt close at all wait until they have all curved inwards and turning brown before its ready then look at the trichomes and they should start to look amber in color. Here aee some pics of my flowers where you can clearly see the white hairs are still sticking upProcessing: 1000000137.jpg…
