Auto Flower Perpetual Redundancy Part 2

Week 8 Update These girls are hanging tough handling the abuse of intense lighting and a strict wet then dry watering/feeding cycle. Nice chunky buds are showing sign they are getting closer to wanting to get flushed. Seeing a lot of pistils drying and curling up by the end of the week. A light sweet diesel like scent is coming off her. Runoff was 850 to 900 ppms with a ph of 6.1. Going to try to sneak in one more feeding next week. Trichomes are clouding up nicely. I see signs of a few ambers trichomes showing up. I've been waiting to start my flush until I see the first multiple ambers showing up on the calyx. My guess is they typically amber up at about 5 % every week on my grows. This will give me 2 weeks for flush and trichome ripening. Chop with 15 to 20 % amber trichomes.
