Photography I suck at judging trichomes!

Hey all,

I'm coming to the end of a pretty shitty grow. Both plants got very sick with leaf septoria (also some serious ph issues) which pretty much killed off most of my fan leaves during flower and I'm sure stunted growth and bud development. One plant is super lanky with shitty popcorn nugs. The other doesn't look quite as bad. I'm still trying to salvage what is left, even though they look like shit. Today is beginning of week 10, I'm growing fastbuds Original Auto Chemdawg. They predict 8-9 weeks from seed to harvest. Mine clearly weren't ready at week 8 or 9 and I am probably going to let them go another week or two.

I already know I fucked these plants up so no point in wasting time telling me how shitty they look, mostly just want to know what you think about the trichomes. I struggle with this because they all either look clear as shit or amber. What are your thoughts? Have you guys ever taken a sick plant to harvest? If so, what was your experience with bud quality vs. a healthy grow?

Thanks for any info or advice as this is just my second grow!

I'm new here , and still a somewhat beginner grower but I'd say those trikes look pretty clear. I'd let them go till they get cloudy or even amberish. Just my personal opinion,and I think they say it also smooths out the inhale. Let me know regardless

You are right, I would think somewhere between 1 and 2 weeks. They can change fast all of the sudden so keep an eye on them.
