look at the weed under it. you will be able to see if it covered in crystals. or mold. or nothing at all.
Also you can tell what colour they are. Good to know sense the colours tell you what type of high your going to be getting.
Higher potency isn't = more trichomes. High potency = lots of high-grade cannabinoids, whether they're distributed in invisibly few trichomes on the bud or invisibly few of many trichomes on the bud. It is not impossible for a bud to be covered in trichs and still be schwag. It is also very possible for bud to have almost no trichs and still be dank as hell. At least in theory, that is - don't know if it's ever happened.

Also, the color has nothing to do with the effect - it's not cannabinoids that are causing these colors and the colors aren't affecting the production of each individual cannabinoid type.
