I read somewhere that the use of a magnifying glass is essential around harvest time. Question: What exactly does one search for? Trichomes, to be sure, but what determine's the exact harvest time?
brown/amber hairs and cloudy or amber trichomes are a good way to tell when they are ready.
if you like more of a head high harvest when the trichome are cloudy and if you like more of a body stone harvest when the trichomes are amber
