Trichromes

First time grower, 1 female, appx 7 weeks in flower under 400HPS. Most of all my fan leaves are yellow and falling off. I have really nice buds with white hairs. Strain seems saliva, everything looks great. The buds keep getting fatter. When will the trychromes start to appear?

they are already there. Get a jewelers loupe or microscope and check a leaf near the bud. You'll see little clear/cloudy/amber mushrooms. Most say to harvest at half amber.

Darn spell check always putting down what you don't want to write. Every last time I write the word sativa it changes to that.

It's all a matter of opinion... to me, Amber = degraded THC... why would you want that? Buds will have that frosty look, when they first start budding, the frosty, is clear tric's...Plant will make clear tric's till the day you harvest...Clear/Frosty turns to Cloudy/milky... you want to get 90% cloudy/milky... amber/tea colored Tric's are degrading, and loosing potency... other things kick in ... anyway, I also think this first question from OP-- bull sheiot...

Pix are awful. Hard to believe you are 7 wks into flower. Looks more like four weeks. Even for a sativa. Give it another few weeks.
I didnt see any yellowing. What I did see looks healthy.
