New Grower AFN Communal Competition thread

yeah bateyes the trichs are the entire structure (shaft and head) lol
 
Damn. The shaft really does pick up the reflective color... I thought maybe I was wrong and just the clear head was the trich. And I always thought the clayx was just the teardrop shaped seedpod looking things. I didnt realize the clayx was the entire inner part of a flower.

Always learning!!! Reason 472 why I love AFN!

Heres about 100 people who think they ARE doing it right!:hump: Microgrowing is an art form. Very reminiscent of bonsai. Huge plants and big yields isn't everyones' goal. Especially in an autoflower forum! :lol:

:peace:PEACE, LOVE and PURPLE DRAGONS

Why does everyone assume I mean put up a million lights. Just cause I have a few lights. Just meant spend the extra $1 and give your plants a descent sized pot with normal branching. Not a stunted little thing. If everyone wants to start assumin this I'll just pots pics of one or two plants everytime
 
Phammy. That topic is closed homie. Just drop it, please. New subject: hows them dragons??? Lol...
 
Buds...all trics are glass...and the colour is Reflected from the clayx..

If you Think of them like a glass tumbler...if you stood a clear glass tumbler on a piece of purple velvet..certain angles you looked at would reflect the colour up the glass.

Trait changes in the opaqueness of the tric change the way you View the underlying colour..
so it is a Handy thing to watch when Breeding.

The Clearest/see through trics are the ones described as Self-coloured..they are so clear they allow a pure reflection of the clayx colour..
so you see these on the Deep coloured phenos on JEM/BB..and on the Green JEM....that is the True calyx colour showing through.

By the time it is added to ALF#3..I Adopted the Whiter tric off the White Russian..
the whiter tric is more opaque..so it diffuses the clayx colour..making the colour much more muted..icing-sugar colours..

The Colour is from the JEM..so that is Exactly the same..but the way they Look to the eye is altered by the different tric.


Under a scope..you Will see a tric go a very pale..all over purple..this is how it looks when it is going to amber up...some kind of maturity change I would guess.

Once they amber up..or go milky..obviously that is Colour..but not in the way you mean.

If you could Remove a tric that appears coloured from the calyx..you would see that it holds no colour..it is glass...:thumbs:
