Day 43 skunk#1 in soiless mix under a 400w. Should i start flushing tommorow or give it nutes? I want to flush for 2wks and it takes about 3-4 days for the soil to dry out during normal waterings.

i was gonna go for 65-68 days but now im thinking more towards 58 -60 days. Any opinions?

if it was me, i wouldn't harvest till they looked ready to harvest no matter what day it was
all those hairs need to start to darken and recede into the bud
and.or you could check trichs
i like them all cloudy

great but i want to flush - you didnt answer my question.. should i start flushing for 2 weeks?

I think you should aim for your original days and flush based upon that 2 weeks from there no sooner

They seem to be yellowing a bit early, maybe they aren't getting enough nutes. I would hold off on the flushing if that's the case.

the first and last pic those are rootbound - vegged too long because i was moving..

il stick with my original plan i think.. 68 -70 days.

i would start flushing for 2wks when red hairs cover bout half of tha bud, and when tha hair curl up into tha bud then start to flush, peace

well i clipped what i thought was a small bud and trimmed and dried it in the microwave.. i could hear it crying the bud was so dense! i got 2 joints and some leftovers.

Anyways - i smoked it and i must say the high was excellent long lasting, i could sit and chill or wander around town this skunk#1. This was day 45 - the site says 45-55 days for the harvest (so im gonna chop another small bud at 55). Im gonna let it go until about 65-70 - will the high be the same?

it should only get better with time, alot of people say they always add atleast 1 week to whatever it says, another fellow grower says no matter what the strain he wont chop prior to 10 weeks if he's outdoors

i clipped some off a sativa at like 7 weeks and then again at 9 and it made me feel foolish that i had clipped so early the first time....and its still got another couple weeks b4 its finished, cold temps and purp buddage

No the high won't be the same skunk is an indica, the longer it sits there the more it is going to kick you to the couch.

I would say that about 65 days would be good.

Flushing is also dependent on your watering style, if you water til a lot of run off forms it is going to take a lot of nutrients with it.

I think you should cut back your nutes atleast and if you have some carb product still give them that.

If you do it right the plant will have next to no sugar/starches left to energize at the end. If you starve too late you end up with roots sending starch to the buds as you are harvesting.
