Yep I understand all of this, the trichomes thing
What I don't get is :
"tip #2 -> the amber ur lookin for will be on the budz themselvez, not the sugar leavez"
What is exactly the bud itself ?
If I look at the bud, all I can see is either sugar leaves, or pistils...
Here's the bud I'm talking about :
#2 -> i'm talkin about amber trichomez, not pistilz....pistilz = hairz & they're not what ur lookin forthe trichomez themselvez turn from clear to cloudy, then amber as they fully mature....and this then becomez purely a matter of grower preference, as to when to harvest...there'z a lotta diff factorz at play, but the loose rule o' thumb is that the more cloudy-to-amber u let em go, the more body high/couck lock u'll get...but again, that'z a very loose rule, lol
i meself alwayz let em get to around 30% amber if possible before choppin...but then again, some strainz seem to almost never go amber, lol
if u don't already have one, u'll need to get a jeweler'z loupe or other magnifying meanz to check the trichz, becuz -> it'z all about the trichz!

......................ok, sorry, couldn't rezist
but seriously, and simply put, the bud itself is the meaty part in the middle of all the rest, lol...it'z made up of all the lil teardrop-shaped calyx'z that stack on top of each other as the bud growz
