Ready to harvest

[hoots123]

So I waited to long to flush. I have time this weekend To chop them. And I'm at about 73 days
I checked my ppm on all 4 plants and they range from 900-1150ppm run off.
I'm flushing right now but 2 days left wont fix it. Is that a big deal for the end result?

Id give em a bit longer

If you don't let them fade out before chopping you're going to have to jar cure it for literally months to break down the sugars and starches. Considering you probably need to smoke that bud before 3 months from now, you might as well just give them another week or two.

By fade do you mean the yellowing?
I actually think they maybe got nute burn at the end. Switching to coco next grow

Yes. They should be a little more yellow than that. Some of that is burn, yes. Coco can be even worse with nutrient burn if you let it dry out. I just switched myself and I had to torture some plants before I figured out that you need to overwater like a motherfucker with coco or you're going to have a bad time. I veg in 4" rockwool cubes and then transplant to 3 or 5 gallon cloth pots full of coco before I flip. I use a top drip system on a timer so they never dry out. It's definitely an improvement over promix and perlite. I think it's a more efficient use of the pot too because there is no perlite taking up space.

Did you do a homemade drip system on the top? I did a coco grow last time and got 2.3lbs dry but i watered way to damn much it was a chore but my yeild was better. I just freshly bought the Autopots im veging in them right now. will see how it goes but i feel like they wont work. its gravity fed bottom feeding.

Yeah I use a timer and water 1x a day when they're small, and then work up to 3x a day as the roots get bigger. I've heard good things about those autopots.

I don't think bottom feeding is good for coco though. Maybe a mix of pro-mix and coco would work better?

i went with 3 inches of clay pebbles then coco ontop.. currently at about week 2 and they seem wet still but i was top feeding the whole time.. would be a nice relaxing grow if i dont have to feed every 2 days
