Oh great you too :bigjoint:

you grow organic so your opinion on flushing is not welcome :mrgreen:
Yes I grow organically, but Renfro doesn't. He said exactly what I thought he would. That's a man that knows his shit.

Take closer pictures and post them. People cuts plants too early all the time. It will make your weed half as good and hurt yield and smell.

People always say to harvest by trichomes, but what they fail to mention is that you shouldn't even bother looking at them until the plants look finished. I don't know the correct terminology is but the lil bracts or whatever they are called under the pistils swell up and look and feel like they gonna bust. At this point it's time to start scoping if your going too.

Scoping too early can lead to premature harvest I've seen trichomes that are changing weeks before harvest, new ones kinda pile on as time goes by and then those cycle into changing colors.

I know autos are fast but I doubt it's that's fast, how many days does the company claim?

Harvesting late is way better then potentially weeks early ending up with some hay smelling herb that lacks potency. Rarely is anyone upset they took a plant too long.

I will take some updated pictures when I finish work and the breeder says it takes 9-10weeks and I will be cutting around 11 almost 12 weeks with the 2 week flush.let me get this straight in the flush do the trichromes continue to go cloudy/Amber if soo I honestly think iam onto a good schedule and she looks very much ready you will see in the pic. even the leafs are beginning to yellow a little even with me feeding its simply coming to the end of its life I feel

Here are the pics how they looking for flush in 2 days?
If you flush these for 2 weeks you will have zero leaves left on the plant as they will become necrotic and drop off.

these are mine day 67 of 12/12 they are currently on their Feed reduction.

I didn’t exceed 1.4EC the whole grow feeding daily in coco.

as they are now in their final week or so I’m reducing feed from 1.2 down to 0.8ish.

that’s a reduction from 750ppm .5scale down to around 400ppm.

4 different plants.
Critical+ x2
White Siberian
Eleven roses

i dont really understand what you mean tbh are you suggesting a shorter flush ?
Im suggesting no flush.

you’re plants are pale AF as it is and if you continue your plan of flushing For 2 weeks you’ll be depriving them of much needed nutrients.

that’s not to say you need to feed at full strength but in my honest opinion you’ve cut out nitrogen far far far too early hence your yellowing and nutrient deficient leaves.
