    Amber at 4 weeks? Asking for a friend.

    Friend flipped his 3 plants about a month ago. I would have expected them to stop stretching now and start fattening but they appear to be ambering pretty early. Two are clones of Blue Glue, one is a clone from another friend, all grown in fox farm soil. All appear to be ambering. His LEDs are at around 18" which is OEM recommended. I thought maybe he had sprayed with something for WPM that may have burned the pistils but he hasn't. Any thoughts on this? Amber pistils at 4 weeks seems very early to me, but maybe these two strains just grow that way or it is something environmental. It's the pistils all over the plants, not just the tops.

      This will happen usually about a week before harvest you will start to see amber in trichomes

        I'm going to take a stab and say raise the lights. I've had this with lights being too low. Not knowing what type of strain this is I think it's too early for trichomes to ripen something has to be stressing out the plant.

          Amber pistils at 4 weeks, no big deal. Let the trichs amber and decide when to take em down.
