I don't know why I haven't seen your log before. Sorry, I would have liked to follow from the beginning.
I would suggest a trip to radio shack. There you can find a 30x (3 loop) glass, and a pocket microscope. I would get both, and the total should be under $25. With the microscope you can get 60 to 100x I think, and it has a light. Sometimes it is hard to focus in at that size, so I like to look in my 3 loop glass too. I also like to lay a flashlight right beside the bud I'm looking at. 30x is about as low as you can go and really see the color of triches well. As for where to look, try a couple spots at the top, middle and bottom of the plant. Some people harvest only the ripest and let the others ripen longer.

I know what you mean. I would like to get a real nice macro camera and do a bunch of trichome photography. Compare different highs at different stages and document it with photos.

Early death in the gardeen
So i decided today when i woke up that i needed to take my plant down, I found a whole bunch of male flowers on her completely out of the blue. I just hope i can still smoke my plant.. but i think i may not be able too.
After i got done triming it all up i weighed the big kola out of curiousiity, i know its still wet, but whatever. I weighed 33g, i thought that was pretty cool. Itd be a shame to see that 33 gram kola go to waste and be unsmokable
Anyways here some pics from this morning

Real nice. So much better. Just think how good your 3rd grow will be. Those are some nice fat colas. Sorry about the hermie, but depending on the variety you can still get nice and high from it. Just watch out for popping seeds in the bowl. At least you could make hash from it, but that takes a bunch of time.

It should be smokable 3 weeks early, it just will be a different kind of high. More able to think, and move, less like a "fallen and can't get up" high. Any time you see trichomes you should be able to get somewhat high. I like to wait until I see about 10% amber trichs.
Each weed has it's own special scent. Flowers is fine. Sounds even much better than some other smells from weed.
Dry until the stems crack when bent (4-7 days). Cure for 6 months or more. The more the better if all the moisture is out. Or don't cure at all. It will probably just not be as smooth and tasty, but it will get you high.

Yea, I am currently cureing the pre-mature hermy bud, I have smoked it a couple of times. It has a weird taste and a very weak and strang high.. so far. I think I am going to use this stuff to mix with, when i have some good chronic.

Thanks alot  .. That plant was veg's under a 400w MH and the bloom'd under a 400w HPS, I wonder what it would have looked like 3 weeks later when it was supposed to be done. I had to cut her down early b/c she had a hermy problem..

I have one other plant in bloom right now, I havent been posting any new pics tho b/c i have been spending all my time lately researching and getting ready for my next grow (updating gorw room, etc. etc.), and a new semester of school. I will for sure post pics tho when she is harvested.
Ill start regularly posting again when my new grow is started most likely around the beggining of February. So dont go away now.
