I did a search on trichomes and read some of the related posts. I see that I'm not the only one to have trouble determining when they turn from cloudy to amber. I look at the trichs on a bud and they seem to remain cloudy forever. Then I pick the bud, trim it, and then look at the trichs a second time and notice that there are quite a few amber trichs after all.
I think the lighting might be off. I always take a sample from the plant and look at it on my desk; I don't look at them under the bright light of the grow room. What is the best lighting to view the trichs with? How many more of you have had trouble determining ripeness of the trichs?
