White Widow Auto ILGM in 9oz cup

Beginning of week.. So I tasted some of the bud that I did not flush.. It tastes like fucking chemicals.. All these people say that the read that somebody did a blind taste test.. Smh.. SHEEP!!! I will always flush my buds prior to harvesting.. People believe anything they read.. I understand tho.. Cuz thats how most growers learned.. By reading.. But they read some article that states flushing is not needed.. Haha! And it was written by a nutrient company!!! Makes perfect sense to have the customers use nutrients for an extra 2+ weeks!! That means more sales for them!!! People will need to reup on nutes sooner than if they did not flush.. I'm going to stick what works best for me, my throat and lungs and my girls.. Maybe not try to 0 out the runoff PPMs for a whole 2 weeks.. Or maybe just use sweetner for the 2 weeks.. Idk but I got another week to figure it out before the flushing begins!!! Mid week.. She is still goin strong! The colors on the calyxes and some leaves are coming out slowly.. But very dark.. Like a really dark red (see mid week pics).. She has been drinking like fucking crazy which is perfectly understandable lol.. But I should really attempt to start watering 3 times daily, I suppose.. It all about ripening at this point on now! Such a gorgeous plant.. She is coming out EXACTLY like my first White Widow autoflower from ILGM.. I guess that means the genes are pretty stable?.. Idk.. Still learning about breeding.. Very interesting topic for sure!!!
