When to flush? How much longer till harvest?

How shit I never knew roll it up hated giving water for the last week. Damn that’s a bummer. How else you folks get that fall colors and fade without very low temps? Hmmm. I give water at the end. Surprised a lot of you feed all the way. Interesting. Please don’t flame me. Just making conversation.

OP you’re still a month out easy
You make sense bro thx

I have everything ready for my next grow.
Gonna go for a Pineapple Express & Jackherer grow. Both photoperiods.
I’ve made lots of mistakes in my first grow and so I’m pretty pumped to get started on my second.
I do have 1 more question if you don’t mind:
Say this grow is over in 1 month, so the tent will be free and ready for the Pineapple Express. Can I start the seeds 2 weeks from now, so they will be 2 weeks old when moved into the tent.
The only problem I can think off is that the environment won’t be that great cuz all I have besides the tent is a propagation tray&dome.

so would you suggest I start the seeds when the tent is free or I start the seeds outside the tent(in my bedroom actually) 2 weeks in advance?
I do have a separate grow light so they’ll get plenty of light.
You never know what can happen. Id start the day you chop. Don't rush it and have a big head ache.

I like my plants healthy until the end. I don't like to starve them when they are trying to swell the most and finish. To each their own.

Why don't you do a side by side comparison for yourself........then you'll know.
You have plenty of time left.
I ought to do that man. I’m not hating the not flushing idea.... it’s just never been what anyone ever taught me. Maybe I was always taught wrong but you know what I mean? Only way to find out what’s more ideal is to do two side by side.

here’s myTHOUGHT on it? And again. Maybe completely wrong. IMO a plant fed 100% until it last day of life, seems to me it would never have the need/urge to ripen/die off. Since it’s completely fed. In my limited experience, seemed I’d never get amber trichomes until I flushed. But again, I could be 100000% wrong.

Wrong.
Flushing or not flushing has nothing to do with a plant ripening.
Well, I’m interested in more information then. You have a source? I’ve had photos at day 100 that I never stopped feeding that just kept on chugging along like no big thang. Where as when I flush I get them fall colors /seemingly ripened/ready plants.

please no bad vibes or arguing I just want to see this proven information fam because it will be valuable if true. Thanks

So we aren’t talking black and white tried and true tested information just how you feel ay? It’s all good I was just wondering. Thanks man have a good one.
You obviously didn't read all the posts in this thread.......post #38.
It's not just how I feel.........I tested it myself and came up with my own conclusion.

I never flush either. Don't worry, you still get amber trichomes on the same schedule. You just end up with a plant that doesn't look like it's dying, and there is no taste difference. I think most people saw this study, but just in case you haven't, it just confirms what we've all experienced in testing this out for ourselves over the years https://www.rxgreentechnologies.com/rxgt_trials/flushing-trial/

I didn’t read all the posts. You’re right about that...... I asked if you had a source to back up your claim and then reaffirmed this was just..... a conclusion YOU personally came to. Not a study or blah blah blah and that’s fine. It is just how you feel as this was a conclusion..... you came to. And again that’s fine. But presenting it as the gospel and that IM wrong? Based on...., your “observations“.... nah.

Them plants out there in the fall.... that change colors at the end of season..... that rain water just doesn’t have those nutrients anymore come august, September ay? Or maybe that’s the lifecycle of a plant.......?
Talking indoor coco that lives on daily feeds.Trees outside that go dormant is just a little different.

Thank you for valuable information. 4 controls. I dig it. This is all I was asking for from the start. Next run I shall flush half plants and not flush half. I’ve only ever flushed aside from a handful, and that handful.... wasn’t as smooth as the flushed, crackled in the bowl, and ash did not burn white smooth. In my limited experience. I look forward to trying this flush vs no flush again. Hope everyone’s having a great day and I wasn’t trying to cause any bad vibes I was just talking man.
