Hi

Am in week 6 of flowering, i have looked through the microscope and the Trichomes are 50/50 clear an cloudy.

Should i start flushing now or wait until all the trichome to turn cloudy?

Cheers

You wanna flush 4 weeks before you harvest... Sounds like your not far from harvesting as soon as the milky color fades towards amber I'd harvest but that's my opinion...

Yes they will keep forming even when the leaves start yellowing most the leaves on mine are yellow when I harvest but keep an eye on your trich's...

5-6-7 is when most of your growth occurs. as far as flushing goes, most people say yes, and there are a select few that say don't bother. personally i agree that its common sense to flush, but 4 weeks is a bit extreme. i flush with a leeching agent for 2-3 days, then plain water for the rest of the week, then harvest and trim a cola at a time off of the plant.works great for me.

I flush for a week and my smoke is fine 4 weeks sounds to long to me thats allmost half of the flowering cycle,I just use plain water after haveing a disaster useing humbolt royal flush that stuff started foaming in my res like lava flowing from a volcano and never used anything but water since then.
