New Grower pakistan and afghan ryders?

[swantip]

I think the Pakistani is close to finish, all but one set of leaves are yellow. The problem is that I dont see any amber trichomes,they are all milky white. Is this a common normal thing or should i wait more? I am on day 55 by the way and i plan to harvest on day 60 because I fear that after all the fan leaves turn yellow, the leaves covered with resin will turn yellow too...

Not all auto strains show amber, or at least not enough to see with the naked eye or a loupe. Once those yellow leaves completely die off it should be ready. It should look something like this:

Well i would love it if it looked like this.I mean the sizeThanks for the response. I hope this strain is as good as they say

Yeah count me as another one that would be elated if my AKR turned out like that. Muddy how tight were your nugs when you reached final product?

If you like indica you'll like it. I grew them outdoors a couple years ago and grew the parent photo strain this summer. It's a favorite.

They were solid, couldn't compress them while green. That was an Auto Assassin I grew under a 400 watt HPS.

Ok here is an update. i wiill probably give the paki a couple more days before harvest.I checked with the scope and most of the trichs are cloudy if not all. what do you think?The afghan surely needs more than 70 days

To the question: "can you get stoned from 1 day dried weed?" The answer is...YES WE CAN! I love paki ryder:booya:

So guys, i am a bit of disappointed here.Both of my plants have super heavy smoke.In fact it is too heavy for my likes.But the reason i bought those 2 strains is that they were supposed to be indicas.I am not feeling any couchlock at all ,the high is all energetic and rushy like a sativa!
From what i've read, some people suggest 50/50 trichomes and some others say that this is not good because "harvesting when 50% amber is decreasing potency".I like the potency but i dont like this kind of high.

The longer PR matures, the more couch lock you'll get. I prefer UPPY vs. drown in the sofa....just a matter of taste. They look great to me!! The bulb top part of the trichome should be cloudy/a bit amber for what you prefer. Looking at your "up close" shot....trich's still in the transition.
