LSD-25 Fastbuds Auto, Coco, Day 70, Flushed on day 68, held off on flushing due to the girls not looking even close to being ready 2 weeks before the breeders harvest date estimate. Do I still have 2 weeks left to flush her properly?

Looks like it has mostly stopped new pistil/calyx growth. That usually spells about 2 more weeks. In that time the plants will swell up inside and increase in weight. They will also finish maturing and increase in potancy.

Depending on how you like your high. Milky is good.

I usually wait until I see the odd amber Trich poking about. Then harvest.

Been pondering the idea of buying a couple packs of these seeds, how did you like the smoke? I have a pretty high tolerance but I’ve read good things about this. Also how much dry weight you end up pulling off her?

It still has 2-3 weeks most likely. I'll keep the explanation simple. Ignore breeder times. Wait till the plant has fully matured!

I wouldn't stop feeding them competely. Cut out the nitrogen at this point, but keep them on everything else. You can lower the dosage but I wouldn't stop feeding completely till the week you are harvesting if you want.

I've tried many methods over the years, and I do suggest others do the same and experiment when they can. But letting your plant fully ripen, and then slow drying it is what will give you the best flavor smell, and smoke. You don't need any of the gimmicks to get great bud, just keep the plants healthy and let them grow until they are ACTUALLY READY, not just when you want to cut them.

I've posted full explanations about this on many of these "when to cut" threads. If you would like a more detailed description I can do that later, but don't like typing on my phone :).

I honestly don't know what's in those nutes without looking them all up. I would reduce or remove the Nitrogen from your feeds but still give them some P,k, and micros at a lower dose. I don't like to starve my plants when they are working hard still.

I would guess it's got about 14-16 days left. You could feed till all the hairs are red and then switch to plain water if you want while it ripens. Everyone does things different. I tried lots of experiments over the years and am always still learning things and dialing in changes.
