I dont think so, trichomes would always be the same colour, its clear then onto cloudy then on to amber. ;-)

I believe the purple reference is to the leave and general plant colour. The trich go cloudy and then amber .... good luck. Got so photos to share? Always interested in pics! Walk On!~ :bigjoint:

Some trichs actually turn purple, but it really depends on how purple your plant is. I would say that you should regard purple and amber trichs as ready, so once around 50% or whatever percent you want are purple/amber, harvest her.

I have seen pictures of purple trichs, and I have had pink trichs. I consider the color to be "amber" when it changes like that.

I've only seen purple stigmas, purple (or anything other than amber) trichs would be really cool! what strains are you guys getting these colored trichs on?
