Week 9 and have started to flush - I don't want to be 'late' on my first grow. Have been checking trichome development, which is a tricky art. Am waiting to see between 30-50% amber, how long that takes is a guessing game at the moment. She is definitely putting on weight, and as I have only been flushing for a few days (twice in four days) she is yet to show any signs of 'yellowing' as she absorbs the remaining nutrients. Am hoping to see more of that this week, but as it is the first attempt I am just taking each day as it comes. Trying not to rush, and trying not to miss anything. Can anyone help me understand how much weight is put on during the flush? Is there a time frame for trichomes changing from cloudy to amber, does the weather impact this to a significant degree? --- Apologies for the gratuitous number of photos.. but if people are able to share some knowledge on where they think she is from a potential to add more weight/harvest timing perspective it would be much appreciated. Lastly - do any of the breeders ever answer questions about specific strains? It would be incredibly useful to have grow guides for each strain across all types of growing environment. Indoor, greenhouse, outdoor - hybrid set-ups. As well as how they develop across different mediums under varying conditions. I realise that this superb platform does some of this by way of the sharing of information within the community. But a little 'insider knowledge' would go a long way to helping build conviction levels for novice growers like myself.

Wk 8 on first ever grow. In first wk of diary are questions based around my inexperience. Anyone willing to have a look, many thanks in advance. Glue Gelato (Barney's Farm) suggests a 64-70 day harvest. Thinking about 70 or 77 as target? Stop feeding when? Start flushing day 60?

You have a long way to go. When it starts to look close to ripe it's usually a good time, because there's still 10-14 days, typically, from that point. Being familiar with trichome progression will help too. Start observing, now :) Anyway, your substrate will impact how long you flush. With soil you have extra room for error.. can always changeup midstream if it is going longer. Bring it down slowly though. Don't flood the thing. Normal irrigation with healthy runoff is all until top 1" dries again. you can only pick out the day if you are familiar with the plant. The plant does the planning, regardless.

Thank you for your responses - do you find that the dates on harvest are relatively accurate? I would like to understand when to stop feeding...

@Bud_Di_Spenza, appreciate the kind comments. Day 60 today. Target harvest from Barney's Farm for this strain is 64 - 70 days from germination. I tend to gravitate towards the latter end of that range, and agree that conditions are the obvious influence. Have only just started flushing. As it is the first attempt I am inclined to be early, rather than late... taking into account a two week flush I would be looking to harvest around day 72, 73, 74.... If I need to wait a few more days I can - am enjoying watching the girls grow. I did read that some people flush and then have up to 5 days dry before harvesting. Am not sure whether this is the right type of thing to be thinking about first time up, but I can recognise the logic. Keeping an eye on trichome development. Would prefer a 50/50 mix for this strain. Am hoping that she ripens up during the flush as she uses up any remaining nutrients. But am not overly concerned about having a 5 ounce plant, more that I have some high quality ganja to enjoy. If her smell is anything to go by, that first easy timer is going to be exceedingly tasty. Good luck with your grow.

@ReggaePharma, In my experience it's about 2-3 weeks longer than advertised, but that also depends a lot on the strain, light, nutes etc. While some of your close-ups already look pretty ripe, I would wait at least another two weeks (based on latest pictures) before flushing since the buds look like they still need some time. PS: Really enjoyed watching your grow, keep it up :)
