Stupid question time (the only type I ask, it seems)
Can anyone tell me, roughly, how long it takes for trichomes to go from clear to cloudy, and then from cloudy to amber? (On White Widows / Dark Angels from CKS, under a 1000w HPS)
I know this is VERY plant specific, but all I want is a sort of ballpark answer. Both the CKS WW and DA are supposedly 8 week strains.
I'm starting week 8 of flower tomorrow, and I was planning to start my final flush, but the most recent check with my horribly crap "magnifier" and 30x jeweler's loupe reveal mostly clear (like 90-95%) trichomes on all 3 plants. Around 25-30% of the pistils have turned orange on one of the WW's and the DA. The other WW (if it even is one, since it looks totally different for whatever reason) pistils are at like 10% orange.
Are these likely to get to around 50-75% cloudy inside of a week?
If I start the flush, and they end up needing another 2 weeks or something, I'll be screwing myself over. Anyone have any advice / input?
P.S. I know pictures would REALLY help answer my question, and I'd attach some, if I could get any worth a damn. The only camera I've got that's even close to good enough is on my phone, and all it can manage to do is show that there are trichomes, and that's when I can get it to sort of focus.
Thanks in advance.
