Flushing or Not

Day 58 for P1 and buds swelling nicely with pistils turning amber on about 50%. Not sure whether to flush or keep feeding. Not sure exactly how many weeks left but guessing 2, possibly 3? I don't mind the smoke being a little harsher and not sure if flush will = low yield

Hey, bro! 👋😇 The manufacturer of your seeds claims a 12-week flowering period for the plant to be considered ripe! 👆 I checked your diary, and you're not quite counting the flowering weeks correctly! If you've been keeping the diary accurately since the start of flowering and haven't skipped any weeks, then my further assumptions are pretty accurate! Your flowering started in the 5th week of growth (not the 6th, as you noted in the diary)! You're already in the 6th week of flowering! So, 12-6=6. You have 6 weeks left until harvest! That means you'll be feeding nutrients for another 5 weeks, and the 15th week of growth will be your Flush week! You'll be flushing it the entire 15th week, and by the end, you'll harvest! She'll be quite the ripe girl! She's already a beauty, and she'll become a diamond! 😇👌 Good luck, buddy! ✊😇

i have read in high times, that they did research on flushing to see if it matters or not, they say no. this is interesting because people have always been flushing. i have tried not flushing as well as flushing and i can not tell the difference either way. i flush for 3 weeks, but that is me personally as i am used to flushing. now with all the scientific data that we have now in the modern age of growing cannabis, and with all the places now going legal, there is data now that say you do not need to flush. here is the link i was talking about from high times: https://hightimes.com/grow/new-research-shows-flushing-plants-before-harvest-may-be-unnecessary/ like i said i flush for 3 weeks but i am old school and you cant teach old dogs new tricks. hope it helps with you decision making
