These are really nice photos. I have a Canon EOS Rebel, no way can I get that close-up. If you have a moment, would love to see how you magnify further and capture.

Of note is the THC gene which is turned on in our MJ strains, and not turned on in hemp strains. Also interesting that humans were manipulating strains thousands of years ago for better hemp, as a food source, and for the buzzzzz

...on those strains it is not and you're right in pointing it out. I also don't use a scope anymore. And there are more than a few ways to determine ripeness. If you're waiting on amber you may wind up waiting till the cows come home. I'm finding no one who smokes my shit knows the difference anyway.

what are you feeding? just curious.
I have in a journal a pic of nirvana misty, and dna rocklock.. i need to post the outdoor pics from the kalichakra.. an amazing strain from mandala. mostly sativa takes up alot of space but oh so worth the 11 week wait.

This is interesting to me. I wonder if we are seeing not only increasing levels of cannabinoids, but maybe a ratio change between THC, CBD and CBC over time

well, for me, plants flower like this (talking hybrids and indicas,those ive worked with)
flowers appear and in about 5 weeks, they have grown all over the plant.
in the 6th they start filling out, then in the 7th 8th week, the seedpods will swell up. (not always this timeframe, but that exact pattern)
after this swell up, generally nothing happens sizewise and at that moment, the plant is fully mature. (just get heavier stone if you wait)
thats really what i wait for, that last swelling up of the seedpods, after that the pistils just finish dying off along with the stone getting heavier and sleepier.
this is a fairly obvious process in any strain ive seen.
but hey, this is just my experience, im a firm believer in each man doing his thing, doing what suits him best.
after all, if we only had one size in clothing for all, it would be a pretty sucky world for most.

You know you can't judge maturity based on pistil colours right?
Get as close to 100% milky/cloudy trichomes as possible.
Look for swollen calyxes and receding pistils as well.
Those three combined with the overall look of the bud sites (and entire plant) will determine when you should harvest.
I'm with you.
There is just too much over complication and imo needless data being produced for the everyday grower.
It's a friggin plant. Period. Treat it as a plant and you will have wonderful results.

That's what I'm doing, and the entire plant is still green...not one hint of a yellow leaf. I figured when it took 17 days to show sex I was in for a long run.
