Early harrvesting is part of the higher
THC numbers as I understand it. By harvesting before they get too many ambers whcih are lower in
THC. The quote below summarizes it better than my cack handed efforts....
"Generally, the presence of milky/cloudy trichomes indicates a plant that is producing its peak amounts of
THC. As the trichomes turn amber, the resin glands produce slightly less
THC, but will begin to hold increasingly higher levels of the cannabinoid CBN as the older
THC begins to naturally degrade into this."
