I was going to go another week but they are starting to look floppy and all the leaves look dead. Should I just go dark for three days and chop it down? So far about 8 weeks into flowering my Sour Diesel.
In flower but they look like they are going to die..

They look dead.. I don't want to wait too long or they might die completely. I will post pics soon.

Try to give it a bit of a flush with plain water to get out your nutes before cutting. Another couple days shouldnt matter. Of course normally you would want to flush for like a week or so but I would def try day by day.
Good luck!
Good luck!

Yellow? They are dead and hanging.. it has a been a rough first grow sooo it just seems like that should be the iceing on the cake )
I did a change to RO/Molasses (for the last two weeks before harvest) and 3 days later it starting dieing off, buds leaning and getting weaker. Nute lvl shot down from 1200 to 300 after the water change. I gave it a little nutes but doubt that would of helped. so in the dark now might just grab the shears tomorrow and cut it down..

Hmm oh no, this is not good. You say 8 weeks, all you can do is check trichomes, so you know anyway. Then flush it with final flush (faster than water) to flush it fast, chop it and dry it and cure it. Forget the 36 hour dark, the pros say it does nothing. If you wanna see if it works cut all branches off your plant but leave one or two decent branches with buds on them in 36-48 hours dark. Compare. If you want some color to come out, you can flush with ice cold water for a couple days, it may work in that time and will not hurt your plants potency, if anything it will slightly increase it due to shock and stress, good luck man ~ BCbuddy

I wouldnt do anything till you get some pics up. I and the others here will be able to make sure thats the correct move this way, It's probally not as bad as your thinking and making it out to be, the pics will clarify it.

Good point dark, I may have jumped the gun a bit. He makes it sound so hopeless lol maybe resurrection can be performed on them, that we do not actually know. Point is without pics that's the answer he just plain gets haha

i just realized something that you said yesterday. you said your plants are 8 weeks into flowering, but you had been flushing for 2 weeks already. perhaps that was too early? i was nervous with my first about when to start flushing, but i waited until the trichs were getting cloudy and knew that i still had a good week or so to flush
and another thing i just noticed (LOL) are you in hydro??? dont think you are supposed to do the molasses thing

for hydro they sell some clearing solution, or they say you can go down to 1/4 nutes. i just did RO. too bad you dont have pics, but dont assume its dead and toss...just go thru the final steps of cutting and drying...

Hey BCBuddy420, what do you do for the last 2 weeks before cutting? I've read so many different things, and you seem to know a few little tricks. 
My plants are about 4 weeks away or so, what should I do with regards to nutes, flushing, & so on for the last few weeks up until harvest?
Thanks for any info you have, or links that you feel give the best information! Hopefully this can help the OP as well, sorry for the thread hijack.
(any others with good links or info feel free to post as well)

It's a bubbleponic/DWC. Nope was a water change not a flush. I had to change completely since the overnute happend. Since it started dieing (inside of week
I was asking if I should just forget it and reap now before it gets worse. I was told that molasses was ok for DWC..anyways np. I have my next grow up and running getting ready to go 400 watt MH on my new crop of 6 plants.Thanks for the help!
