    I had a White Widow whose pistils stayed white right till the end, so it could be strain.  That said, that plant does not looks swollen/ready....are you checking the trichomes directly on the buds?   The trichs on the leaves/bud leaves will amber up first as the are older, so make sure you are checking actual buds from all over the plant.

    Thats what i was gonna say check the buds not leaves
     
  6. Well, the strain is deimos..... the weird thing is... the plant right beside it is more swollen.. the hairs are turning and pulling in nicely... obviously further along maturity wise..... but the top cola trich's are all clear... this one is quite obviously not as far along.. but top cola trich's are in the pics... and i hear so much about harvest time being critical and trich's... so im kinda freakin out....

    Like i said.. strain is deimos from budhaseeds... is a autoflower strain

  7. could be done ive had trichs turn and still had mostly white hairs...if it doesnt seem to be swelling anymore id chop it..or wait a week
     
  8. I'd personally wait. If my pistils haven't curled up and sucked in, I know the plant is still packing on weight and finishing maturing. I'm always disappointment if I harvest earlier than that.
     
  9. Wheres the magical genie that can just tell me what to do.... lol... this is killing me trying to decide.... my um... noobness is showing i know :)
