so my red diesel plant is about 8 weeks into flowering, and even though it says about 8 weeks under the description, i think itll be closer to ten or so.

ANYWAYS, my trichs are about 70% milky 30% clear. i dont THINK there are any amber yet, but there probably is, i just havent examined the entire plant yet.

the real question is, should i start flushing? some of the hairs have turned red, and everything is looking pretty good. Ill try to get some pictures up, but i cant find my camera cord so im fucked for now.

ANY advice would help!

I would think your ready to start the flush. I like to start flushing about two weeks before harvest.

When you flush what part of the light cycle do you recommend doing it? (Do you flush during the light cycle or during the dark cycle?)

during the light cycle..right at the beginning so the light can dry up the soil as much as possible to prevent mold

When you flush for the harvest, is this just watering plants with plane h2o?
