When a plant gets so far into flowering it stops taking up nitrogen. That why leaves turn yellow from bottom up. Just like the leaves on tree's in the fall. Except that is do to the shortage of sun light.
Nitrogen is the main Nute in veg. P/k is main nutes in bloom.

When you flush wait 20 mins and flush again with 2 tbls of maolases per gallon of water, then just water/molases after flush till harvest. You will not have a change in taste just thick buds.

First you flush with just water 3x the amount of container. Then wait 20 mins for the salts,etc. to dissolve then by adding molases to the 2nd flush you are pushing out all the dissolved garbage and leaving behind some molases so the plant still ahs something to snack on.
Oh ok, i get it. So I have a 2 gallon bucket, i SLOWLY POUR in 6 gallons of water. Wait 20 minutes, and then add molasses to the 2nd flush.

I have a problem I need some answers to. On my main cola i would say 1/3 of the hairs are amber if not a little more, but on the other smaller colas only a little bit are, so it seems to be the main cola is maturing faster. My problem is that on the main cola there are brown spots on a ton of the leaves. And I want to feed with fox farm one more time before i begin flushing with just water and molasses. But do these brown spots mean i am feeding too much, or are they natural, and i should be ok to feed them one more time???

sometimes especialy when you dont have enough light the main cola will be don faster the the rest of the plant. you can do a multi part harvest were you cut whats ready and leave the rest to fully mature.

The Auxins flow is stronger going straight up the meristem into the main cola, that and the intense light it recieves is why it can mature faster than lower buds. Just cut it down main cola when ready and the rest can wait until they are ready.
Yes you can feed them one more time before flushing, I don't think those brown spots are any type of nute burn.
Oh that makes sense.
I have one more question about harvesting. I am going to get a magnifying glass soon. But i heard to harvest when the trichomes are cloudy and a few amber.
But what should i look for when i harvest if i want a head high but with a little body high? Definately not couchlock/zombied??

When the heads of the tricks start getting cloudy, good fast head high, when they all are cloudy with a few amber thats your 50/50 thats what you want.
