To crop or not to crop...THAT is the question.

I just harvested the top 2/3 of my plant about a week ago and left the bottom on 12/12 while flushing. Some of the smaller buds on bottom have ed hairs, but the majority have white hairs still but look in good shape. It's been flushing so the leaves are starting to turn yellow and die off...
My question is, should I keep it in 12/12 and give it some more nutes for a few weeks to ripen these buds, should I just continue with plain water, or should I switch to 18/6 for a few weeks then bud again, I have heard about this last one but don't know if it'll work...
Thanks everyone, and +1 for the love!

By the way...
<<<<<This is the plant about a month ago. It doesn't have the whole top clusters of bud anymore.

Keep flowering it for a few weeks. Don't let the trichomes over amber to much. They won't grow to much and may hermie, but you may gain a few grams.

What I always do is make hash out of them

if they r anything like the plants im used to bringing in we alway did it in stages...cut the ripe stuff and let the bottoms finsih up for another 2 weeks.

I wouldnt switch back to 18/6 ive found that this just confuses the plant and it seems like it takes it forever for it to switch around. I would keep the lights on 12/12. If your worried about nutes maybe give them a 1/2 strength solution for acouple feedings then go back to flushing them out.


*Disclaimer* All statements made above are purely fictional and hypothetically what I may do were I in that situation.

I've always just pulled the whole thing at once, never found that doing the other method resulted in more yield.

The bottum buds are starting to come in more, and the higher lower ones...lol...are looking good too, I added some more nutes and plan on giving them another 2 weeks or so...
