Should I flush now and harvest in a couple weeks or is she ready? Seems early, but trichomes are milky and a small amount are amber already.

Seedbank says "flowering time 7-9 wks". She didn't flower until week 5, so that tells me she should have like 4-6 weeks left. Could she be ready half way thru week 8, after flowering for 3.5 weeks and does that mean I missed the opportunity to flush? :( TIA!

Hi mate, imo as I see it you are at least 2 to 4 weeks from harvesting. May be the colour of thc seems right but the buds are not fully developed. If you grow in a dwc system and not soil you can flush 3 days before harvest. There are products for this. Untill you see the pistils turn orange about 70% dont check the thc with microscope. Usually when you think you are ready you still got a couple of weeks. From the pics I ve seen you are 2-3 weeks far from ready. No matter what the seedbank says to get the max out of an auto the grow cycle should be at least 12 weeks from seed to harvest. Hope was helpfull.

OK so it sounds like my feeling was right, whew! I had marked my calendar at 9/14 which is right around what you fine peeps said :) Thanks AmnZhz for the tip on the DWC flush ... is the "special product" to allow you to flush only 3 days in advance? If I don't use any special product, I should still flush for couple weeks? thanks AGAIN!

Oh yeah, that does seem early, i would keep them for longer for sure, even if you get all thc to be amber there must be new trichs growing everyday, if you see the appearence of new clear thc then you know it is still producing. Try getting a magnifying glass too so we can see exactly what you are looking at. Cheers and good grow looks like a good and healty plant.
