It really depends on your personal preference. I like both. I don't think taste makes a difference. The high can be slightly different though. The thing is, if you want mostly cloudy, you're still gonna get some amber. I think a lot of "new" growers who want the cloudy, chop to early. My point is, search for the least bit of clear and you have reached max potency.ok follow up question. the amber color vs cloudy color. which is better for taste/high? when is best for that?
