TRICHOME HARVEST CHART
of couse someone that likes to argue, will argue with this post.
YOU CAN GO BY A CALANDER, AND IT WILL BE BETWEEN 8 AND 9 WEEKS FOR MOST INDICA.
You can buy a $10 lighted battery operated 10X microscope at Radio Shack to examine the trichs.
You can wait until all the hairs are reddish or browish or dark beer colored.
again, all the above are rules of thumb and many will argue this, but until you've done a few grows and learn any better, this is good advise.
