When to harvest for trippy, yet stoned turn?

Some recommend 70/30, some say that trichomes will ripen (Edit: and THC will be converted into CBD) even after harvest. Wouldn't it then be good to harvest a little earlier than intended, like with an amber/cloudy ratio of like 50/50?

I like to harvest at 50/50.

Not all trichomes are going to turn amber. Just look for most of them to be dark, then its just a numbers game.

They definitely turn a bit after harvest. I've pulled with 25% amber on a sativa and after a week or so in the closet was left with 50% easily. I'm not sure if this is the trichs actually maturing and converting or if its because they're..."dead".

Why should that mean it isn't real?

It's because they're drying and losing water. So that membrane ruptures and you get a little bit of oxidization.
