Hi Guys,
This is my first time and i am unsure about when to harvest. I think she is about ready to go now. Grown in coco, day 49 of flower (seems too soon). Im starting to see a few ambers. I just started flushing two days ago when i noticed the ambering. I read 5-7 days on flushing coco. Any advice on when to chop? Am I late on the flushing??? Thanks.

Thanks and good to know because i wouldve for sure cut it down too soon. I got to say this may be the toughest part of my grow so far. Knowing when its ready.

Do you think i should give low does of nutes for one week then flush, or should i continue flushing from here on. I just checked the EC its down to 900 (was at 1600 before beginning flush)

Awesome thanks so much for the replies. I will start feeding again tonight. Just to be clear, no flushing at all for the remainder of the grow???? The responses are "No Flushing" and "Dont do it yet." I know it's a debatable topic from what I have been reading. If you guys think it's better to not flush at all, that is what I will do.

I've done both and when I did not flush they were way dense and solid I don't know if it was just me

I dont flush. People flush to rid the buds of nutrients, thats not possible.

Even if you get all nutes out of the roots they are still stored into the leaves. Flushing at the end of the plants life forces it to used stored nutrients in the leaves to feed itself.

Buds still end up with nutrients in them and you have sent the plant into survival mode instead of full force bud densing mode.

Thats why I dont flush.

Got it, really appreciate the info and glad I came to this forum!!! You guys saved me from screwing up the whole thing. I have put in so much work learning how to grow, I'm almost there. I will continue to feed the beast lol. Thanks again

It's been a week and I am starting to see what is happening. I guess Im still having a hard time determining when they will be ready. I have two different plants (both white widow). I think one plant is further along than the other as they look completely different (which isnt helping with my confusion). Both 8 weeks flower as of today. The trichomes look pretty much the same. I am starting to see them fill up and turn white. I am thinking 3-4 more days but what do I know? Do you care to give me an updated time frame based on these pics? Do they look like they are on the same schedule? Sorry if I am asking the same question twice, this part is not easy on the beginner.
