i have a few plants that are very close to harvest. i went out and bought a 10X mag glass to check my trichomes. i am growing skunk/ citral strain which is sativa or sativa dominent hybrid. October 15 is going 2 make it 10 weeks of flowering. The trichomes are looking cloudy and amber colors but the pistils are only 40% browning.What should i go by? Ive heard that the trichomes are more accurate than pistils. What up? in some areas the trichomes are slighty white. i am a first time grower and put alot of work in and im trying to be patient with harvest time. Please help me out.

Sativas go for 12-14 weeks max.
Wait for the 12 weeks imo,all though you can harvest some sativas after even 8 weeks if they are very good but they wont be nearly as good:blsmoke:
 
reviving an old thread but.... amber trichs are more of a body high while milky trichs are more of a cerebral high. imo id harvest when the trichs are milky cuz the brain high is what i like :bigjoint:

Yea I harvested mine this year when there was only 10% amber rest milky and it makes me all hyper for about an hour and then I don't even get tired afterwards. It's pretty great. I think this strain is my pride and joy! The only problem is it came from bag seed and I don't know what strain it is! I call it myonics! Yesssss
