    Default Harvest now? More Nutes? Help I'm screwed!

    Please help anyone. I've checked out the forum for some time and taken much advice but now I'm in a jam and need some help.

    I'm on day 65 of bloom, day 90 with veg. Growing bagseed in dirt under CFL's. Trying to guess when the harvest is HARD! I stopped nutes like two weeks ago and flushed, thinking I would harvest today, but now I'm not sure if it's ready! Now what do I do? The problem is, the leaves are yellow yellow! The thing is like dying from lack of nutes/end of life. I'm not sure what to do because if I give more nutes and wait I might wait too long and not have the time for the nutes to be used up/flush and end up with nute tasting buds. If I harvest now I might be losing bud.

    How long can this take from where I'm at now? I bought a little scope and the trichs look somewhat milky. Not white milky but starting to get a little milky. I would like to see some starting to turn amber before I harvest. Also I'm seeing what appears to be some growth on the tips of the buds. The tips have white hairs that look new. If I go further I think I should give nutes, but I've already flushed. Shit Shit, what should I do?

    Should I water with nutes, wait a week, flush, wait a week then harvest? Or wait without the nutes? Harvest now?

    I appreciate the help anyone could give a newb that doesn't know what the hell she's doing.

    She looks perfectly healthy to me from that pic Looks like she needs longer but I agree with the guys above.... plain water only at this stage. Yellowing leaves is perfectly normal at this stage, and btw shes not dying!.... when you cut her down try leaving her under 24 hour light for a few weeks and she will bounce right back into veg again

    edit* ... those new 'tips' sound like foxtailing to me? All adds on the weight... let her finish.

    So the votes are 2 for water only and wait and 2 for nutes and wait.

    If nutes would help your buds and if you have another week or two to go, would you have time to flush before harvest?

    Sorry to answer a question with another question but how much longer do you think you have? 2 weeks?

    Keep us posted.

    Your buds look a lot like mine.. mine are at 45-days since emergence of flowers. Are you using a scope to look at those trichs? Cause they can look milky unless you have mag and good light behind it. When you look, don't look at 'em with the leaf in the background -- that makes them look milky when they're not. Roll the leaf until you have clear light in the background; then look at the heads.

    I've got the "second-surge" on my bud tops, too. One main cola suddenly threw up another 2"; bunch of side buds putting it on, too.

    You have some time yet for sure..

    PS.. I'm giving 1/3 strength FF 6-4-4 .. gave it today for the last time, thinking I have about 3 weeks left. I had a pH / overnute issue for a time, and flush everything out awhile back. But, don't take me as "advising" this ... my situation is prob. a little different than yours.
