Trichome 

A trichome, when referring to Cannabis (ie Indica) it is not the hair on the surface of a leaf or stem but refers to the crystalline monstrosity on a flowering top. This is sometimes referred to as a resinous gland. I beleive the original poster is the one who is "noneducated". Trichomes are an essential ingredient in Magilla and Heezy Fosheezy.

Trichomes 

Trichomes are small appendages that look like hairs, they are produced by marijuana and other plants. Some trichomes on marijuana plants develop a resin gland at the top. These trichomes are a rich source of THC, and monitoring them will allow you to best judge when the plants are ready for harvesting.

On marijuana plants, trichomes with resin glands form in the highest concentration on buds. They start out clear, turn a milky color, then turn amber (light brown). To best judge when to harvest, keep an eye on the trichomes on the buds on each plant.

Do you see the size of those trichomes on that Marijuana plant?!

tricomes 

when cultivating pot, there is a certain stage near the end of the budding stage wherein you expose the plant to immense heat. In order to protect the leaves from heat, the cannabis emits little white "crystal looking" tricomes that contain enormous portions of THC. This is the definitive step to producing great cannabis. Tricomes are sometimes mistaken for sprinkled crack by uninformed potheads.

That kynd bud was covered in tricomes.

Tricromes 

Tricromes are the tiny, little, THC crystals on good quality marijuana. They are almost invisible to the naked eye, unless examined very close with good lighting. a magnifying glass helps you to see them better.

"Dude look at the all the tricromes on this nug!!"
"Bro, the tricrome consistancy on these buds is insane!"
"She had some buds that were covered in tricromes!"
"Last night, me and my girl were 'sippin' on some tricromes, (smoking very good quality bud)"
