Should I harvest early?

I use a little microscope that attaches to my phone. Gotta get a new one now as I lent it out and now its gone. But they are pretty cheap. Look them up. Super handy and you can get great pictures too.

Thought I posted this but don't see it now. I use a little microscope that attaches to my phone. They are cheap and available online or at hobby lobby and other big retailers. Then you can take great pictures too.
Once at a buddies place we were checking trichomes and saw something moving.just discovered his new spider mite issue. At least they didn't show up till things were done. Lol

No idea how it’s overfed. Been flushing for over a week now with straight PH water and before that I was just using organic seasol fertilisers. Look at the old pics. The plant was green and fine. When I started flushing is when the leaves all started changing colour my dude
You answered your question.

When you decided to “ flush” all you did was strip / leach the soil medium . It does nothing for plant. She was pulling “ any and all “ elements from itself ....... cannibalized . Although I’m not familiar with your fertilizer choices , it stands to reason that your move to flush knocked feeding / uptake out of wack. Starved her out.

That, I believe, was his intention. In containers I quit feeding a plant before harvest and just give it water too. I guess that's not flushing though. I just let them use up what is left in the soil. And the plant can use its leaf to finish itself as far as I'm concerned. But the new growth leads me to believe it still had a while to go.
Op- Get a jeweler's loop or clip on microscope. That is going to be your best bet in the future. There are lots of pictures out there to compare to. And then you will get a better feel for it. You can even keep track of different levels of development to determine your own personal preferences.
