I shoot for ~70 but some of these looked good at 63. You will probably need permission to post pics since you’re new.

They look like they need more than 7 days. But post pics in 7 days and we will see. Those look good don’t rush them.

you want most of the white hairs gone and the orange should be swallowed by the swollen calyx.

Thanks. You're awesome for reaching out.
Growing under two Mars Hydro TS-600. Soil Grown with Biobizz nutrient line up. I'm in no rush. Just want to get it right.
 
More time, bright lights can make clear trichomes look cloudy as well. I was getting all excited and then I looked at my plant with the lights dimmed....
I never even considered that. 10-4. I just don't want to grow tranquilizer. I would prefer to harvest before too much degradation of the Trichomes has occurred. CBN is not my goal.

You can harvest when you want for the effect you want. It's your smoke.

They say, Clear is immature, fast zingy high.
Cloudy is peak, strongest high.
Amber is degrading, couchlock.
Is this true with all strains? idk.

I'm waiting for as many cloudy ones as possible with 10-15 amber. All the dispensary stuff I've ben getting has zero amber on it. Even when I'm asking for something to sleep at night. I'm going to let some ambers come in, if I don't like it, I wont do it again.

My first couple of harvests I tried to push well past 20-30% amber triches on the calyxes. This time around I'm shooting for 10% or less. But I was SO new that I really wasn't totally sure where the plants were at. And I screwed up a ton of other stuff too. I'm getting a slightly better grasp on things now but I still need a ton of help. Trying to dial it in now so I at least have the basics to build from. Nothing like hands on practice :)
 
I bid you good day from "Lil' Slut Gardens" Day.. 73 from flip? Yeah I think that's right. They're coming along. Both Jack Herer. One Sativa dom and one Indica dom. Running them together until finish regardless. Some small foxtailing happening on the sativa dom. No heat issues so attributing to genetics. I'm thinking weekend after next to rip em out. But we'll see. Trichomes still mostly cloudy on calyxes. Not much amber until you get to the sugar leaves. Anyway. Opinions very welcome. Gracias mis amigos ❤
