When all the white hairs have disappeared, post more pics. The plants look great, don't blow it now by harvesting too early. I'd say at least 2 more weeks.

Keep up the good work.

Alright, got it.

yeah dude, thanks for conforming my suspicion about the foxtailing :( , read that sometimes it didn't cause much problems on the quality, should i believe? something about there's ways of foxtaling that could cause "damage" and mine didn't looked like one of those times, just controll the temps right and wait for the harverst?
Foxtailing really only hurts bag appeal. With a couple weeks it could get a little crazy.

You do see the white hairs, correct?
I do man, its just that i've been reading in various places that to get high amounts of THC, to harvest when 70% os pistils are amber already, that some white pistils will mature while curing, that's why i posted again, since my last update 5~6 days ago, i noticed a big appearance change in the pistils.
Do i have to wait till all pistils are amber then?

Judge by how much the calyx's have swollen, pistils, trichs, and overall appearance. The buds will take on a brownish hue. Combine all those together to make your decision.

Get a loupe if you dont have one.

70% amber trichs is too late, unless your into that.

30% white hairs is too soon, unless your phenotype hits mostly cloudy at this time.

i'm starting to feel a little nervous, some of them are 50% brownish and full of amber everywhere as @macsnax and @SPLFreak808 said.

I read that some white pistils could occur due temp stress or light stress, i couldn't find a 50x usb microscope to full check trichomes and that's the max i can zoom in, i noticed that most trichomes are not so translucent anymore and most of the uppder buds are 50%amber just by looking.

i feel like i'm gonna lose the harvest window, i was looking for more THC, but i wont complain if i get more CBD.
