Help, my trichomes gets red/brown from the base.

I would expect them to become amber at the head after getting milky.
But theese trying to confuse me and are getting colored from the trichome-stem upwards.
I didn´t found infos on that.
What does this mean ?

Away from theese confusing trichs, i have mostly clear/cloudy trichrome heads, maybe 5% or less amber.
Pistils are 70 % red, 30% white. Plants are overall healty :)

Plants are Female Seeds C99 at Day 61 of flower, grown in soil, getting plain water from Day 44 now.
Temperature are about 25°C at day, 17 °C at night.

That seems to be a particularity of that strain, I don't think it means something.
Harvest when most trichomes are cloudy and you got just a little remaining clear and some amber too. Some people harvest at 10-15% amber, others at 40-50% amber, it's all about your preference, more amber means more stoned high (couchlock).
