First Time Grower - overcoming mistakes

[TomDaDon90]

I only have a overhead fan blowing on them in the day time.
At night no circulation of air really. And I don't have a extra plug in my bedroom for a fan. So I try to keep my overhead fan on high most the time. And the air in house our AC is on now. And set at 68F. So my next grow I will definitely have a fan.

Okay so what exactly am I looking for and what are the trichomes?
This is taken with my 50 mp phone camera. I'm buying a Vivosun 60x magnifier in next couple days. But this is my Cinderella 99 flower at today is 47 day of flower.
But yeah what am I looking for.
Thanks.

And this is my Hollywood OG flower at 47 day of flower.
But I think I zoom in and I see the trichomes are still clear.
So I have a couple more weeks maybe less I don't know yet.
I guess I'll just start checking in another week or so.

[TomDaDon90]

I can't tell if it's done or not.
This is the Cinderella 99 Sativa.

Trichomes are all those mushroom looking things all over the buds when you zoom in. Your looking for a mixture of cloudy and amber trichomes. From what I can see you could push them another week or 2 for best results. If you harvested now the "high" might make you feel "Racey" or like can't get settled yet I'm stoned sort of feeling... I remember you saying you smoke for medical reasons so I'd push them another week or two so you get a better affect from the smoke. But keep checking trichs everyday now coz they could go amber anytime now

i think i'm more excited then he is. like when my kid graduated

[Wayzee]

Hahahaha you are a funny bloke DW

[TomDaDon90]

Okay I know exactly what I'm looking for.

[TomDaDon90]

I feel like I graduated growing weed now Lol

[Wayzee]

Haha, start reading up on drying and curing now

[TomDaDon90]

This should be just about done. Today is 57.
I'm just waiting on the trichomes to turn amber now. Slowly but patiently I'm waiting every day.
They look like snow they are so like white crystals all over just like snow. So this should be some good MJ.

[TomDaDon90]

I was just reading this website and I may have another week.
Since they are at 57 days now maybe they need 65.
Who knows I'll keep checking every day until then.

[TomDaDon90]

DW . I sure will... And I ordered a dry herb zipper bag from Amazon I'm waiting on for like 10$. I'm going to trim and dry them in. So I'm excited.
