White Haze Automatic - Bonsai in box

day 78: and yet again the beginning of a new week.. this meant a full nutrient change with GHE base-nutrients, calmag and this time it was AN bud candy, carbo load, overdrive, rhino skin and sensizym.. i would guess about half strength, maybe a bit more. I first mix it together and then add RO water until it has the desired EC (now of 1.1) and what's left of the total amount (that doesn't fit inside the small pot/reservoir), i keep for the next days to fill up. This usually only lasts me a day, but if the EC goes too high, i usually water it down with more RO water. I've checked with my microscope and on the top-buds there are a few amber trichomes already. Some look like they're rather far advanced already even.. this is only on the top area of the two highest buds and only very few like that. The trichomes on the sides of the main buds, as well as the lower buds are mostly between clear and cloudy, so i think it will still take me maybe another 2 weeks. If i was in soil i would start the flush, with coco or peat i would think of starting in a few days, but given they're in a hydro solution, i will still wait. A reservoir change is quickly done, and 2 to 3 days after that it's ok to harvest, as there's no nutrient-buildup that needs to be flushed from the medium. This makes timing much simpler. day 82: the light-burn the top bud gets intensifies a bit, but there's no way to pull the light up any further.. given we're about 2 weeks away from harvest or so, that's just something that i have to accept and i'm not going to change anything with this setup anymore..
