IMO I would have harvested already.  I usually harvest at about
5 - 10 % amber.  Though who I grow for likes it more of a head buzz vs a more sedative buzz.

why do you harvest when there are still clear trichs seems like a waste





When trichs turn Amber the TCH is degrading into CBN Which is a different chemical and actually has different affects than the THC itself.  Some people like the affects of the CBN mixed with the THC.  Hence the 50% 50% ratio.  While others do not. The 50% 50% ratio does not mean "max potency"  which when it comes to cannabis is really a self defined term. 

From what I have learned 50% amber to 50% cloudy is a good baseline to start with and then try.  After it has been tested you can then adjust the harvest time of the strain to suit what the consumer is looking for.  Clear trichs does not mean "wasting"  It would just mean more THC and less CBN in the final product.  Some trichs will be clear while the rest are cloudy leaving little to no CBN in the final product vs waiting till cloudy and amber meaning your mixing about equal THC to CBN in the final product.


Who I grow for smokes all day and still needs to be able to function well through out the day.  They have tried different "ripeness" and prefer earlier harvest as with the later harvest it made them feel more sedated which is caused by the higher amount of CBN.
