Harvest & Curing HELP?! When should I flush?

[TheCannabiseur]

Does anyone have any suggestions when I should start to flush these babies?? They are 8 weeks old today (from germed seed going into soil). 9 weeks from first day of germination. I have been feeding with General Organics Biothrive Grow and Bloom at half recommended dose. I water every 3 days which only they only nutes every other watering. They boyh were topped only one took it, the other grew normal so that just add to grow time. All these pics are from today 5/12.

to me it looks as if you have 2 weeks at least until shes done...ive found even when 50% of the hairs have gone amber/brown they still have a good 7-10 days on them....

That's exactly what I was thinking because autos usually run around 8-9 and with the topping I would say add an extra week to that I'm going to be feeding with last nutes on Monday and then cut down in 2 weeks if all goes as planned.

I don't flush my plants I grow organic and towards the end I just wateri believe this enhances terpines ,and flavor and allows the flavors to come out strongly.If using chemicals a two week flush is common practice but possibly a lil longer I would imagine would get good results,I use a very very small amount of molasses' at the end watering it enhances the flavor quite a bit .

You still have a lot white pistils, so there is time to pack on more weight. What are the trichomes telling you? If you don't have a pocket scope or digital usb camera etc, please get one.

I haven't gotten a chance to examine the trichromes as I haven't received pocket magnifying glass yet but they are looking juicy! She is coveted in crystals so far and more than half of the pistils are still white like you stated but they are changing very very fast. Here is a pic from less than a week ago where you see almost no orange pistils

My plan is to flush tomorrow night and then cut down once I start to see signs in the trichs this is my first grow obviously so any tips are greatly appreciated [emoji41]

So today I flushed them with 2 gal each of tap water that sat out for 48 hours. They are both in 3 gal smart pots with OF perlite mix. I also took some more macro shots. This little pocket scope is dope it sits flush I'm my phone lined up with the camera and I'm able to hold it on handed and it even has a little LED too. Most definitely worth the $7 with free 2 day shipping with Amazon Prime.
