How do I Increase Trichomes Growth?

[davduggie13]

I am a Medical Mary Jane card holder. I recently went to my local dispensary, to view and compare my bud to theirs. I was shocked to see how much different and more covered with trichomes theirs was, then mine. I've used 1000 watt light and feed according to my feeding schedule (Fox Farm).
I've tried leaving in total darkness for 1 week or more before harvest, but still not many trichomes. I'm growing White Widow, White Rhino, Afghani.

Temp 75-80f. 18" below light. 12/12 air vented in and out from outside. 5 gal buckets.

Any suggestions on how to increase trichomes?

Any suggestions will help.

Try this unsulfured organic blackstrap molasses:
