New Grower Flushing/Cleansing before harvest ?

[Herbfulness]

Hi guys i know that muddy said to flush during week 10-11 but the question here is :

How many weeks before harvest i should i discontinue nutes and do flushing ?

1 week before or 2 week before ?

Basically It isn't hard to tell. If you have a strong magnyfing glass x30-x100 check trichromes and when you have 10% amber, flush.
The plant will keep growing a bit after flush and when you get your desired amount of amber/cloudy trichromes, you can harvest.
Even if you do it a little early, just water with plain water afterwards, so it works out just fine.

3 Days up to a week flush would be good before harvest.

or you could feed up til your fan leaves start to turn yellow, and cleanse(flush) for 10-14 days as per muddy!!! Your leaves will tell you when its time. You cant always go by trichomes for the simple fact that the life cycle of an autoflower is different than a photo period plant.

Sorry, but this isn't good information in regard to autos as some strain will not show any amber, even when left for as long as 14 weeks or more. If you wait until the bud leaves are about half yellowed you will have another week to 10 days before harvest. That's the best time to start the final cleanse.
