Huh, i didnt know that so I just snapped a pick of a gas mask clone 71/2 weeks into flower with my phone and loupe.I'm finishing her in the sunshine we been having lately. I think I will give her 7 more days. There not as milky as I like em:weed::bigjoint:View attachment 4132984
Thats a beautiful shot :) I gotta say though, maybe its just my noob eye but I cant tell if they are transparent or milky it just looks really glittery. Any tips for spotting whats what?

Well besides my garden gaurd kitty hairs ya see, LOL ( I take tweezers to em right before harvest) it shows well up close and the gas mask strain is ridiculously trichomy:mrgreen:. I personally think my trichs in that picture are bout still 40% clear, maybe 50% milky n 5% Amber maybeish? It's at day 53 I gonna let her dry out soil wise till day 60 then chop. I finished one other of a sister clone bout a month ago and it was some damn FIRE smoke. :fire: Dank potentcy and genetics. :peace:

Sounds like a plan ;) I'm thinking of chopping my two down either today or tomorrow they've been flowering at LEAST 60 days but id probably say closer to 70, all the lower buds look absolutely great apart from one or two that either have a couple sugarless sugar leaves (the buds themeselves still look swollen AF :) ) or they are trying to reveg I'm really hoping not, but the crowns still have a lot of white hairs, bout 50/50. Ill either leave the tops to go a few more days and just take all the lower buds, or just chop the whole thing, not sure yet.

Right On! Ya my plant threw a bunch of new white pistals at at day 48 and it's kinda normal, just the last ditch effort before maximum potency is the way I been seeing it:eyesmoke:. But don't ya get all warm and fuzzy with anticipation when you see the final calaxys swell up, :oops: Sorry all just got done putting mine to sleep for night:bigjoint::peace:
