@ToxicTerps, yes I took them all at the same day , the maltezerz had gone a little to far really with mostly amber trichomes and decay on the leaves and even leaf stems ,, I think any longer and bud/ stem root would have set in .
I like my indica leaning plants to have mostly amber trichomes.
I like my sativa to have cloudy trichomes
This is just my personal preference as I self medicated for severe crohn's disease and I'm neurodivergent,
that way I have meds that keep me focused and from becoming overwhelmed and meds that help with pain , appetite and sleep.
As for the flush I wait until the plants are close with mainly cloudy trichomes on the buds then I feed just plain water at ph 6.0 -6.2 with no run off until the EC is really low , by this point the remaining leaves in the plant go through senescence, I wait until this is showing close to the buds , at this point I chop them and dry at 60% humidity with the temps as low as possible , normally between 14-21 days untill teady to trim and store, I find this the best for flavour , bud texture and smoothness of your vape or smoke .
I currently have a few packs I'm leaving in a cupboard to check at 6 month intervals at 6 months the bud is still really nice slight flavour change and better high .
I'm at 9 months so will check the next pack at 12 months then the last one next summer .
Wow 😁 I'm high and rambling 🤙 hope you have a great day
