Flushing is a myth. Just cut back on all fertilizer 2 weeks before projected harvest time. Never totally eliminate food.

Plant has some weeks left yet. Flushing is not needed. By the way, today is the 18th

And so it is the 18th, my bad lol! Thanks for answering! What about using unfiltered molasses? This is a plant that I grew from seed for "A what the heck, let's try it" thing. It's CBD Remedy strain. I think she's pretty. I appreciate any feedback on how she looks...so like 3 more weeks -ish?

Plant looks great, nice and green. Looks like you are doing a great job. Never used molasses so I can't really comment on that. Yes a few weeks I would say for sure. Lots of pistils still standing up.

To flush or not to flush.. so much info about this it's confusing..def want smooth, smoke, I've heard flushing rids of built up salts from nutes...if I had two plants I'd flush one and not the other to compare...still confused

Hey, that's just not the case. There is no flushing stuff out of plants. Flushing is for the medium. You flush salts and stuff out of your medium, not your plants.

She needs more than 3 weeks. What strain is it?
I think you mean unsulfured. Unsulfured molasses will feed the microbes but don't overdo it.

Yes, unsulfurd! It's a Strain called Remedy CBD. Alot of the fan leaves (the bigger ones ) are quite yellow so I thought I was drawing near the end. The buds do still have white pistols standing up tho. You guys are awesome! U want to grow more plants next summer, so I'm really just learning.

This is the first thread with “flush” in the title that hasn’t gone badly off the rails in a while…
Leaves turning yellow is not really a sign of maturity. You want to judge maturity by how the buds look, not the fan leaves.
That is a nice looking plant, good job there.
If you’re unsure of whether or not to harvest yet when she’s a few weeks further on, post pics. You’ll get good advice but almost always it will be suggested to wait a little longer.
Flushing and early harvesting threads are common and often provoke testy responses here, especially when a new grower asks for advice but then argues back with folks.
Welcome to RIU and good luck with seeing her through to a harvest!

That looks a few weeks (+) away still. Lots of white pistils. The heaviness will get worse as the calyxes swell. it’s a good thing
Might want to think about some supports.
