24 Jan - 30 Jan
Started Flushing on Sunday night (23 Jan)

A lot of leaves are starting to die, from all of the plants, maybe due to nutrients maybe due to climate, or maybe is just the strain on the end of its life.
Either way, I'm planning to harvest next week.
How and when to properly do lollipopping? Is it a single or a multiple day process, what would cause less stress?
I wanted to do it on more than one day, try a slow process, just remove from bottom to top whatever won't get enough light, any suggestions?
hey there Mopish, I do lollipopping in a single day, but when i do it the plants are much taller and larger than the ones you're working with. That being said you have the right idea about reducing the stress as much as possible. If you insist on getting it done, i would say wait a few more weeks in veg before you flip, and do it one or two weeks before the flip. Hope this helps ! 🚀
Some fan leaves are starting to look a bit too crispy and curly, they do have some trichomes, I'm 3-4 days into flushing.
I'm not sure if the dry matter can "contaminate" the buds somehow, and don't know if I should do something about it, I'm planning to get some "bubble hash"
Hard to tell exactly - but anything that’s majority necrotic or dead tissue, I am removing.
It’s just a risk of nasty stuff beginning to take hold and thrive on your plant.
You’re in DWC - 3 to 4 days is a solid flush and she looks ready to chop. I’d cut her down in the next few days.
Go thru and pull off any dead stuff before drying..
I don’t recommend saving any of that you pulled off for bubble hash or anything. Just trash it.
Hope this helped. Good luck with chop
@ezzjaybruh thanks for the recommendation, I was playing by soil rules, but you're right did some reading and it seems like flush in DWC can be faster... thanks! I was afraid that more days would mean more and more dead biomass.
@Northern_bc_bud, Thanks! I'll do some improvements in the future, if you noticed there are some hoses for recirculation, I wouldn't recommend those, recirculation and draining for changing water is a bit slow... I think I'll replace them with PVC nipples in the next grow.
Hi @CRiSPrGrow, thanks for the answer, I still haven't made up my mind, I know what the other guys say about the plant not having enough energy... but, I don't know if they're considering extra veg time to get the plants "back on their feet". I guess I'll wait to see how much they grow, I still have about 2extra weeks of veg nutrients and this feed just started yesterday, so I'll analyze it next feed probably.
@Kynareth Thanks Man, I feel like they could be doing better, especially the choco cookie and the banana cake.
- Choco cookie doesn't seem to like a lot of nutrients. I would not try this strain again with other strains on an RDWC.
- Banana Cake stretched like crazy at the beginning of flowering, has been challenging to manage the height, I think this would be doing better if it was alone.
- Kush del Arriero has been a sweet easy ride, I can't complain, only that is not supposed to have as much THC as the other ones, but it isn't a lightweight either way.
This is my review so far, we'll see what the couple next weeks produce.
