strange phenomenon late in the grow

I'm encountering something I've never seen before, and it's happening on two plants of different strains. First, trichomes are going amber before the hairs are even 50% turned dark. And secondly, it seems like a LOT of the trichomes are going directly from clear to amber, without getting frosty.

Anyone know what would cause this?

In my experience... trichs go amber early from root probs. Over watering, salt burn, bugs, over nuting,.... that kind of thing.

Or could be just a genetic anomaly.

Interesting, thanks for the reply :) I'm not using salt-based nutes, I have no visible bugs, I'm using fabric pots and don't think I'm over watering... I'm only using time-release nutes, but I might have used more than these strains like.
