Hawk's Outdoor THC Bomb Clones - Grow Journal - August 2023

[Hawk518]

9/29/23 - When I cloned these, I didn’t realize the mother plant was in flower. So, if clones counted at same time as mother, then this is approximately Week #7 of flower. Used a magnifier to look at the buds for the first time and delighted to see the trichomes. Realized that getting good pictures of the trichomes is not as easy as I thought it would be! When that high a magnifier, it's nearly impossible to keep your hand steady to take the pics. Here are a couple of pics – are these trichomes considered clear or cloudy at this point? Any guess as to how much longer before harvest?

How did these turn out?
Any one have experience with THC Bomb from Bomb Seeds?

My THC Bombs turned out really well. The pics above are just clones from the parent (tiny in comparison). But I got these seeds from MSNL, not Bomb Seeds.

It's hard to see the color @Hawk518 , it depends on how you prefer the stone. Mostly amber will be stronger than all milky color. I take mine when there is about 10% amber, and I believe that they still change color after chopping.

Finally bought a digital microscope so that I can see the trichomes better. MUCH better. If possible, I'd try for between 10-25% amber colored.

Also, had no idea the color continues to change after chopping!!

If you get a chance, please check out my current grow journal.
Would love any advice / suggestions.
